Complex plane:
The set of complex numbers forms the complex plane which we denote by C.
Real numbers 𝑅 ⊆ 𝐶 (with imaginary part 0)
Example: 2 ∈ 𝑅 ⟹ 2 + 0𝑖 ∈ 𝐶 ⟹ 𝑅 ∈ 𝐶
Example: 2 ∈ 𝑅 ⟹ 2 + 0𝑖 ∈ 𝐶 ⟹ 𝑅 ∈ 𝐶

Modulus of a Complex number
Distance of any number 𝑧 (= 𝑥 + 𝑖𝑦) from origin is called modulus of 𝑧.
Example: 1. If 𝑧 = 𝑎 + 𝑖𝑏
then 𝑧 = 𝑎−0 2 + 𝑏−0 2
= 𝑎2 + 𝑏 2 .
−𝑧 = −𝑥 2 + −𝑦 2 = 𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 = |𝑧|
2. If z be any complex number , then |𝐳| = 𝟎 if and only if 𝒛 = 𝟎.
Proof:
Let 𝑧 = 𝑥 + 𝑖𝑦, then |𝑧| = 𝑥2 + 𝑦2
Now |𝑧| = 0 if and only if 𝑥2 + 𝑦2 = 0
⇒ if only if 𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 = 0 i.e., 𝑥 2 = 0 and 𝑦 2 = 0
⇒ if only if 𝑥 = 0 and 𝑦 = 0 i.e., 𝑧 = 0 + 𝑖0
⇒ if only if 𝑧 = 0.
Polar form of a complex number
The polar form of a complex number is another way to represent a complex number.
The form 𝒛 = 𝒂 + 𝒃𝒊 is called the rectangular coordinate form of a complex number.
𝑧 =1+𝑖
so, 𝑥 = 1 and 𝑦 = 1 ⟹ 𝑟= 𝑥2 + 𝑦2 = 2

Principle Argument: Argument of any non-zero complex number z is the value of all
angles 𝜃 which satisfies the condition (𝑟 cos 𝜃 + 𝑟 𝑖 sin 𝜃)
Arg 𝑧 = {𝜃 ∶ 𝑟 cos 𝜃 + 𝑖 sin 𝜃 }
It is always a singleton set.

Circles and Disks, Half Planes
1. Unit circles: 𝒛 =𝟏
or 𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 = 𝟏 or 𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 = 𝟏
𝑧 − (𝑎 + 𝑖𝑏) = 𝑟
or 𝑥 + 𝑖𝑦 − (𝑎 + 𝑖𝑏) = 𝑟
⟹ 𝑥 − 𝑎 + 𝑖 (𝑦 − 𝑏) = 𝑟
⟹ 𝑥−𝑎 2 + (𝑦 − 𝑏)2 = 𝑟
⟹ 𝑥 − 𝑎 2 +(𝑦 − 𝑏)2 = 𝑟 2
𝜌1 < 𝑧 − 𝑎 < 𝜌2
Neighborhood (Nbd) of a point : An open circular disc 𝑧 − 𝑎 < 𝑟 is called the
neighborhood (nbd) of a point a

Real function:
A real function f defined on a set 𝑺 of real numbers is a rule that assigns to every 𝑥 in 𝑆 a
real number 𝑓(𝑥), which is called the value of 𝑓 at 𝑥.
Now in a complex, 𝑆 is a set of complex numbers and a function 𝑓 defined on a set 𝑆 is a
rule that assigns to every 𝑧 in 𝑆 a complex number 𝑤 , called the value of 𝑓 at 𝑧, such
that
𝒇 𝒛 =𝒘
𝒖 𝒙, 𝒚 + 𝒊𝒗 𝒙, 𝒚 = 𝒇 𝒛 = 𝒇 𝒙 + 𝒊𝒚
Here , the form of 𝑧 and 𝑤 are 𝑧 = 𝑥 + 𝑖𝑦 and 𝑤 = 𝑢 + 𝑖𝑣.
Example: 𝑤 = 𝑓 𝑧 = 𝑧 2 + 3𝑧
Domain: whole complex plane
Range: The set of all values of a function 𝑓.

Limit and continuity
Limit: Let 𝒇(𝒛) be any complex valued function such that
𝒇 𝒛 = 𝒖 + 𝒊𝒗
A function 𝒇(𝒛) is said to have the limit 𝑙 as z approaches a point 𝒛𝟎 , written as
𝐥𝐢𝐦 𝒇 𝒛 = 𝒍,
𝒛→𝒛𝟎
If 𝒇 is defined in a nbd of 𝒛𝟎 and if the values of 𝒇 are close to 𝒍 for all 𝒛 close to 𝑧0 .
Or
If for every positive real ∈, we can find a positive real 𝜹 such that for all 𝒛 ≠ 𝒛𝟎 in the
disk 𝒛 − 𝒛𝟎 < 𝜹, we have
𝒇 𝒛 − 𝒍 <∈
Example: Find the limit of 𝑓 𝑧 at 𝑧 = 0, where
𝑧
𝑓 𝑧 = .

Solution:
𝑧 𝑥 − 𝑖𝑦

Hence limit does not exist.
Continuity:
A function 𝑓(𝑧) is said to be continuous at 𝒛 = 𝒛𝟎 , if 𝑓 𝑧0 is defined and
𝐥𝐢𝐦 𝒇 𝒛 = 𝒇(𝒛𝟎 ) .
