Question 1(a) Show that the function f(z) =

x3(1 + i) y3(1 x2 + y2 i) ,z=0 0, z = 0 is continuous and C-R conditions are satised at z = 0, but f (z) does not exist at z = 0. Solution. Let f(z) = u + iv, then u = x3 x2 + y2 y3 ,v = x3 + y3 x2 + y2 for z = 0, and u(0,0) = v(0,0) = 0. u x (0,0) = h0 lim u(h,0) h u(0,0) = h0 lim
h3 h2

h 0 =1 u y (0,0) = k0

lim u(0,k) k u(0,0) = k0 lim


k3 k2

k 0 = 1 x v (0,0) = h0 lim v(h,0) h v(0,0) = h0 lim


h3 h2

h 0 =1 v y (0,0) = k0 lim v(0,k) k v(0,0) = k0 lim


k3 k2

k 0 =1 Thus u x = v

y , u y = x v at (0,0), i.e. the Cauchy Riemann equations are satised at (0,0). f(z) is clearly continuous at z = 0, because |u(x,y) u(0,0)| = |v(x,y) v(0,0)| 2 x3 x2 x2 + y2 y3 + y2 = r3(cos3 r2 sin3 ) 2 x2 + y2

Thus u,v are continuous at (0,0), so f(z) is continuous at (0,0).

If f(z) is to be dierentiable at 0, then


z0

lim f(z) z 0 = x0,y0 lim (x3 y3) + i(x3 (x2 + y2)(x + + iy) y3) = x0,y0 lim (x3 + iy3)(1 + i)(x iy) (x2 + y2)2 should But exist if we and take it the should limit be along equal y = to x, u x then (0,0) + i x v (0,0) = 1 + i.
z0

lim f(z) z 0 = x0 lim (x3 + ix3)(1 (2x2)2 + i)(x ix) = 1+2 i Therefore f(z) is not dierentiable at z = 0. Question 1(b) Find the Laurent expansion of (z + 1)(z z + 2) about the singularity z = 2. Specify the region of convergence and nature of singularity at z = 2. Solution. Clearly f(z) =

z (z + 1)(z + 2) 2 z+2 1 z+1 2 z+2 1 1 (z + 2) = = = + z+2 2 +


n=0

(z + 2)n for |z + 2| < 1 () The function satises the requirements of Laurents theorem in the region 0 < |z + 2| < 1 and the right hand side of () represents the Laurent series of f(z), which converges for |z + 2| < 1, because we have a singularity at z = 1 which lies on |z + 2| = 1. The Laurent series expansion () shows that f(z) has a simple pole at z = 2, where its residue is 2. Question 1(c) By using the integral representation of f (n)(0), prove that ( xn n! )

Solution.

Let f(z) = tegral z4 zeimz + a4 . sisting of f(z)dz the We consider the inwhere is the contour conline joining (R,0) and (R,0) and , the arc of the circle of radius R and center (0,0) lying in the upper half plane. (R,0) (0,0) (R,0)
