History of Complex Numbers

Brahmagupta (598-670) writes Khandakhadyaka (665) which solves quadratic equations and allows for the possibility of negative solutions.

Brahmagupta 598 - 670

Brahmagupta also solves quadratic equations of the type a x2 + c = y2 and a x2 - c = y2. For example he solves 8x2 + 1 = y2 obtaining the solutions (x,y) = (1,3), (6,17), (35,99), (204,577), (1189,3363), ... For the equation 11x2+ 1 = y2 Brahmagupta obtained the solutions (x,y) = (3,10), (161/5,534/5), ... He also solves 61x2 + 1 = y2 which is particularly elegant having x = 226153980, y = 1766319049 as its smallest solution.

History of Complex Numbers

Nicolas Chuquet (1445 – 1488)

Chuquet wrote an important text Triparty en la science des nombres. This is the earliest French algebra book .

The Triparty en la science des nombres (1484) covers arithmetic and algebra. It was not printed however until 1880 so was of little influence. The first part deals with arithmetic and includes work on fractions, progressions, perfect numbers, proportion etc. In this work negative numbers, used as coefficients, exponents and solutions, appear for the first time. Zero is used and his rules for arithmetical operations includes zero and negative numbers. He also uses x0 = 1 for any number x. The sections on equations cover quadratic equations where he discusses two solutions.

Girolamo Cardano1501 - 1576

Nicolo Fontana Tartaglia1500 - 1557

Solution of cubic equation x3 + b x2 +c x +d = 0

The first person to solve the cubic equation x3 +b x = c wasScipione del Ferro (1465 – 1526), but he told the solution onlyto few people, including his student Antonio Maria Fior.

Nicolo Fontana Tartaglia, prompted by the rumors, manage to solve the cubic equation x3 +b x2 = -d and made no secret ofhis discovery.

Fior challenged Tartaglia, in 1535, to a public contest, each one had to solve 30 problems proposed by the other in 40 to 50 days. Tartaglia managed to solve his problems of type x3 +m x = n in about two hours, and won the contest.

News of Tartaglia victory reached Girolamo Cardan in Milan,where he was preparing to publish Practica Arithmeticae (1539).

Cardan invited Tartaglia to visid him and, after much persuasion,made him to divulge his solution of the cubic equation. Tartagliamade Cartan promise to keep the secret until Tartaglia had published it himself.

Nicolo Fontana Tartaglia1500 - 1557

Solution of cubic equation x3 + b x2 +c x +d = 0

After Tartaglia showed Cardan how to solve cubic equations,Cartan encouraged his student Lodovico Ferrari (1522 – 1565)to use those result and solve quartic equations x4+p x2+q x +r=0.

Since Tartaglia didn’t publish his results and after hearing fromHannibal Della Nave that Scipione del Ferro first solve cubic equations, Cardan pubished in 1545 in Ars Magna (The Great Art) the solutions of the cubic (credit given to Tartaglia) and quartic equations.

This led to another competition between Tartaglia and Cardano, for which the latter did not show up but was

represented by his student Lodovico Ferrari. Ferrari did better than Tartaglia in the competition, and Tartaglia lost both his prestige and income.

Wessel's fame as a mathematician rests solely on this paper, which was published in 1799, giving for the first time a geometrical interpretation of complex numbers. Today we call this geometric interpretation the Argand diagram but Wessel's work came first. It was rediscovered by Argandin 1806 and again by Gauss in 1831. (It is worth noting that Gauss redid another part of Wessel's work, for he retriangulated Oldenburg in around 1824.)

xixe ix sincos In 1751 Euler published his full theory of logarithms and complex numbers. Euler discovered the Cauchy-Riemann equations in 1777although d’Alembert had discovered them in 1752 while investigating hydrodynamics.

Johann Karl Friederich Gauss published the first correct proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra in his doctoral thesis of 1797, but still claimed that "the true metaphysics of the square root of -1 is elusive" as late as 1825. By 1831 Gauss overcame some of his uncertainty about complex numbers and published his work on the geometric representation of complex numbers as points in the plane.

Augustin Louis Cauchy ) 1789-1857(

Cauchy is considered the founder of complex analysis after publishing the Cauchy-Riemann equations in 1814 in his paper “Sur les Intégrales Définies”. He created the Residue Theorem and used it to derive a whole host of most interesting series and integral formulas and was the first to define complex numbers as pairs of

real numbers.

Analytic Functions

If the derivative of f (z) exists at all points of a region C of the z plane, then f (z) is said to be analytic in C.

analytic = regular = holomorphic

A function f (z) is said to be analytic at a point z0 if there exists a neighborhoodz-z0 < δ in which f ’ (z) exists.

Analytic, Holomorphic, MeromorphicFunctions

Return to Table of Contents

A Meromorphic Function on an open subset D of the complex plane is a function that is Holomorphic on all D except a set of isolated points, which are poles for the function. (The terminology comes from the Ancient Greek meros (μέρος), meaning “part”, as opposed to holos (ὅλος), meaning “whole”.)

The word “Holomorphic" was introduced by two of Cauchy's students, Briot (1817–1882) and Bouquet (1819–1895), and derives from the Greek ὅλος (holos) meaning "entire", and μορφή (morphē) meaning "form" or "appearance".[2]

Today, the term "holomorphic function" is sometimes preferred to "analytic function", as the latter is a more general concept. This is also because an important result in complex analysis is that every holomorphic function is complex analytic, a fact that does not follow directly from the definitions. The term "analytic" is however also in wide use.

The Gamma Function is Meromorphic in the whole complex plane

Singular Points A point at which f (z) is not analytic is called a singular point. There are various typesof singular points:

1. Isolated Singularity

The point z0 at which f (z) is not analytic is called an isolated singular point, if we cana neighborhood of z0 in which there are not singular points.

Foundamental Theorem of Algebra

Every polynomial equation P (z) = a0 + a1z+a2z2+…+anzn=0 with degreen ≥ 1 and an ≠ 0 (ai are complex constants) has at least one root.

From this it follows that P (z) = 0 has exactly n roots, due attention being paid to multiplicities of roots.

Proof: If P (z) = 0 has no root, then f (z) = 1 / P (z) is analytic for all z. Also | f (z) |= 1 / | P (z) | is bounded. Then by Liouville’s Theorem f (z) andthen P (z) are constant. This is a contradiction to the fact that P (z) is a polynomial in z, therefore P (z) = 0 must have at least one root (zero).

Suppose that z = a is one root of P (z) = 0. Hence P (a) = 0 and

Since an ≠ 0, Q (s) is a polynomial of degree n-1.

Applying the same reasoning to the polynomial Q (s) of degree n-1,we conclude that it must also have at least one root. This procedure continuesuntil n = 0, therefore it follows that P (z) has exactly n roots.

Proof:

Since converges, some number N exists such that for n + 1 ≥ N,

If we can construct a series of numbers , in which Mi ≥ |ui(x)| for all x in the interval [a,b] and is convergent, the series ui(x) will be uniformly convergent in [a,b].

Remarks on the above Theorem

(i)The contrast between the conditions for term-by-term differentiation of Real Series, and of Series of Analytic Functions is that - In the case of Real Series we have to assume that the Differentiated Series is Uniformly Convergent. - In the case of Series of Analytic Series the Theorem proved that the Differentiated Series is Uniformly Convergent.

(ii)If we merely assumed that the given Series is Uniformly Convergent on a certain Closed Curve C, we could prove as before that f(z) is Analytic at all points inside C.

(iii) Even if we assume that each un(z) is Analytic on the Boundary of the Domain D, and the Series is Uniformly Convergent on the Boundary, we can not prove that f(z) is Analytic on the Boundary, or the Differentiated Series Converges on the Boundary.

(iv) The Theorem may be stated as a Theorem on Sequences of Functions: If fn(z) is Analytic in D for each value of n, and tends to f(z) Uniformly in any Region interior to D, then f(z) is Analytic inside D, and fn’(z) tends to f’(z) Uniformly in any Region interior to D.

If f (z) and g (z) are analytic inside and on a simple closed curve Cand if |g (z)| < |f (z)| on C, then f (z) + g (z) and f (z) have the same number of zeros inside C.

Proof:

Let F (z):= g (z)/f (z)

If N1 and N2 are the number of zeros inside C of f (z) + g (z) and f (z) respectively, and using the fact that those functions are analytic and C, therefore they have no poles

which is the Mean-Value Property of the Harmonic Function ln |f(z)|.

Suppose that ƒ is an Analytic Function in a region in the complex plane which contains the closed disk D of radius r about the origin, a1, a2, ..., an are the zeros of ƒ in the interior of D repeated according to multiplicity, and ƒ(0) ≠ 0. Jensen's formula states that

This formula establishes a connection between the Moduli of the zeros of the function ƒ(z) inside the disk D and the average of log |f(z)| on the boundary circle |z| = r, and can be seen as a generalization of the Mean Value Property of Harmonic Functions.

The Mittag-Leffler and Weierstrass , Hadamard Theorems

Magnus Gösta Mittag-Leffler1846 - 1927

Karl Theodor Wilhelm

Weierstrass (1815 – 11897)

We want to answer the following questions:

• Can we find f ϵ M (C) so that f has poles exactly a prescribed sequence {zn} that does not cluster in C, and such that f has prescribed principal parts (residiu) at these poles (this refers to fixing the entire portion of the Laurent Series with negative powers at each pole)?

A positive answer to this question was given by Mittag-Leffler

• Can we find f ϵ H (C) so that f has zeros exactly at a given sequence {zn} ?

A positive answer to this question was given by Weierstrassand improved by Hadamard

Let f (z) be an Integral Function (no Poles) with Simple/Non-simple Zeros at a1, a2,…,an,.., arranged in increasing order (|a1|≤ |a2|≤…≤|an|≤…. ). Suppose that exists a Positive Integer p such that for |z| = RN

|f (z)| < RNp+1

and the Zeros a1, a2,…, an are all inside the Circle of Radius RN around the origin (|a1|≤ |a2|≤…≤ |an | < RN).Then f (z) can be expanded as an Infinite Product (Hadamard):

Analytic continuation (sometimes called simply "continuation") provides a way of extending the domain over which a complex function is defined. The most common application is to a complex analytic function determined near a point by a power series

0

0k

kk zzazf

Such a power series expansion is in general valid only within its radius of convergence. However, under fortunate circumstances (that are very fortunately also rather common!), the function will have a power series expansion that is valid within a larger-than-expected radius of convergence, and this power series can be used to define the function outside its original domain of definition. This allows, for example, the natural extension of the definition trigonometric, exponential, logarithmic, power, and hyperbolic functions from the real line to the entire complex plane . Similarly, analytic continuation can be used to extend the values of an analytic function across a branch cut in the complex plane.

An important property of analytic functions is that they are conformal maps everywhere they are defined, except where the derivative vanishes. A conformal map is one that preserves angles. More precisely, if two curves meet at a point and their tangents make a certain angle there, then the angle between the images curves under any analytic function (with non-vanishing derivative) will be the same in both sense and magnitude

Schwarz-Christoffel Mappings

According to the Riemann mapping theorem, there exists a conformal map from the unit disk to any simply connected planar region (except the whole plane). However, finding such a map for a specific region is generally difficult. An important special case where a formula is known is when the target region is polygonal. In that case we have the Schwarz-Christoffel formula, written as

z n

jj dzcfzf j

0 1

10

Here the polygon has n vertices, the interior angles at the vertices are , , in counterclockwise order, and c is a complex constant. The numbers , , are the pre-images of the polygon's vertices, or prevertices, which lie in order on the unit circle.

n ,,1

nzz ,,1

The first animation illustrates the effect of the prevertices. The prevertices start in a random configuration, and the resulting image polygon is shown. Then the prevertices are moved (linearly in argument) into a configuration leading to a symmetric "X." Notice how the angles remain fixed, but the side lengths vary nonlinearly into the final configuration.

A variation on the first animation is to leave the prevertices fixed and vary the angles assigned to them. Here we "square" the ends of the X into right angles. The color of a (pre)vertex indicates its distance from being a right angle.

The last sequence The color indicates the radius of a point's image in the disk. Notice how the arms of the X originate from points quite close to the boundary of the disk.

Jacob Bernoulli1654-1705

The Bernoulli numbers are among the most interesting and important number sequences in mathematics. They first appeared in the posthumous work "Ars Conjectandi" (1713) by Jakob Bernoulli (1654-1705) in connection with sums of powers of consecutive integers. Bernoulli numbers are particularly important in number theory, especially in connection with Fermat's last theorem (see, e.g., Ribenboim (1979)). They also appear in the calculus of finite differences (Nörlund (1924)), in combinatorics (Comtet (1970, 1974)), and in other fields.

The problem was tackled by Wallis, Leibniz, Bernoulli family, without success .The solution was given by the young Euler in 1735. The problem was named “Basel Problem” for Basel the town of Bernoulli and Euler.

Euler started from Taylor series expansion of the sine function

To construct the analytic Continuation of the Zeta Function, Riemann established the relation (see proof ).

where Γ(s) is the Gamma Function, which is an equality of Meromorphic Functions valid on the whole complex plane. This equation relates values of the Riemann Zeta Function at the points z and 1 − z. The functional equation (owing to the properties of sin) implies that ζ(z) has a simple zero at each even negative integer z = −2n — these are known as the trivial zeros of ζ(z). For s an even positive integer, the product sin(πz/2)Γ(1−z) is regular and the functional equation relates the values of the Riemann Zeta Function at odd negative integers and even positive integers.

Those roots are called the Trivial Zeros of the Zeta Function. The remaining zeros of ζ (z) are called Nontrivial Zeros or Critical Roots of the Zeta Function.

The Nontrivial Zeros are located on a Critical Strip defined by 0 < x < 1.

The animations above graphically illustrate the convolution of two rectangle functions (left) and two Gaussians (right). In the plots, the green curve shows the convolution of the blue and red curves as a function of t, the position indicated by the vertical green line. The gray region indicates the product as a function of g (τ) f (t-τ) , so its area as a function of t is precisely the convolution.

From those relation we can see that if F (s) is analytic in the right half plane, then it is enough to know it’s value on the imaginary axis to compute F (s) in the entire right half plane.

Blaschke Products

Wilhelm Johann Eugen Blaschke

(1885 - 1962,)

A sequence of points (an) inside the unit disk is said to satisfy the Blaschke Condition when

Given a sequence obeying the Blaschke Condition, the Blaschke Product is defined as

provided a n≠ 0. Here an* is the complex conjugate of an. When an = 0 take B(0,z) = z.

The Blaschke Product B(z) defines a function analytic in the open unit disc, and zero exactly at the an (with multiplicity counted): furthermore it is in the Hardy class H∞.

The sequence of an satisfying the convergence criterion above is sometimes called a Blaschke Sequence.
