Avsnittsöversikt

  • Material: 

    • Cauchy's theorem
    • Cauchy's integral formula
    • Cauchy estimates for derivatives
    • Mean value property (for holomorphic functions)
    • Liouville's theorem

    Suggested reading and exercises:

    Read sections 4.5 - 4.6 in the course book and work on the following exercises:

    • 4.5: 3(a, c, e), 4, 6, 15.
    • 4.6: 3, 4, 11.

    (optional) Just for fun, if you want to see what can go wrong with Green's theorem, see Fesq's article giving a Counterexample to Green's formula.

    • Cauchy's integral formula explained in a video by Martin Tamm from a previous version of the course.

    • A proof of the Cauchy-Goursat theorem can be found, for instance in the fourth chapter of the book:

      Churchill, Ruel V.; Brown, James W.
      Complex variables and applications. McGraw-Hill Book Co., New York-Düsseldorf-Johannesburg

      Since it is not easy to access the book from our library, I include my notes here for those interested.
