 Equations without real solutions, such as x2 = -1 or x2 -10x + 40 = 0, were


observed early in history and led to the introduction of complex numbers.1
By definition, a complex number z is an ordered pair (x, y) of real
numbers x and y, written

x is called the real part and y the imaginary part of z, written

By definition, two complex numbers are equal if and only if their real parts are equal and
their imaginary parts are equal.

 (0, 1) is called the imaginary unit and is denoted by i,

Addition, Multiplication. Notation z = x + iy

 Addition of two complex numbers z1=(x1, y1) and z2 = (x2, y2) is defined
by

 Multiplication is defined by

 In particular, these two definitions imply that

 as for real numbers x1, x2. Hence the complex numbers "extend" the real
numbers. We can thus write

Complex Numbers

 In practice, complex numbers z = (x, y) are written

 If x = 0, then z = iy and is called pure imaginary

Subtraction, Division
6

 Subtraction and division are defined as the inverse operations


of addition and multiplication, respectively. Thus the
difference z = z1-z2 is the complex number z for which z1= z
+ z2

 The quotient z = z1/z2 (z2≠0) is the complex number z for


which z1 = zz2. The practical rule used to get this is by
multiplying numerator and denominator of z1/z2 by x2 - iy2
and simplifying:

 We choose two perpendicular coordinate axes, the horizontal x -axis.


called the real axis, and the vertical y-axis, called the imaginary axis. On
both axes we choose the same unit of length.

Complex Conjugate Numbers
10

 The complex conjugate z of a complex number z = x + iy is defined by

It is obtained geometrically by reflecting the point z in the real axis.

The complex conjugate is important because it permits us to switch from complex


to real.

 The complex plane becomes even more useful and gives further insight
into the arithmetic operations for complex numbers if besides the xy-
coordinates we also employ the usual polar coordinates r,  defined by

We see that then z = x + iy takes the so-called polar form

r is called the absolute value or modulus of z and is denoted by z. Hence

  is called the argument of z and is denoted by arg z.

The principal value Arg z (with capital A!) of arg z by the double inequality

Then we have Arg z = 0 for positive real z = x, which is practical, and Arg z =  (not -)
for negative real z

Obviously,
for a given z ≠ 0 the other values of arg z are arg z = Arg z ± 2n (n = ± 1, ±2, • •

Triangle Inequality
16

 Inequalities such as x1 < x2 make sense for real numbers, but not in
complex because there is no natural way of ordering complex numbers.
However, inequalities between absolute values (which are real!), such as
| z1 | < |z2| (meaning that Z1 is closer to the origin than z2) are of great
importance.

This inequality follows by noting that the three points


0, Z1, and z1+ z2 are the vertices of a triangle (Fig.) with
sides lz1l, |z2|, and |z1+ z2|, and one side cannot exceed the
sum of the other two sides.

Dr. Mohamed Morsy - Prince Mohammad Bin Fahd University


Triangle Inequality
17

 The generalized triangle inequality

that is, the absolute value of a sum cannot exceed the sum of the absolute values of
the
terms.

Multiplication and Division in Polar Form

 Let

Multiplication

The addition rules for the sine and cosine now yield
(1)

Taking absolute values on both sides, we see that the absolute value of a product
equals the product of the absolute values of the factors

a product equals the sum of the arguments of the
factors,

Roots
22

 If z = wn (n = 1, 2, …). then to each value of w there corresponds one


value of z. We shall immediately see that, conversely, to a given z ≠ 0
there correspond precisely n distinct values of w. Each of these values is
called an nth root of z, and we write

Hence this symbol is multivalued, namely, n-valued. The n values of V z can be


obtained as follows. We write z and w in polar form

where k=0, I, …., n - I. These n values lie on a circle of radius with center at (0,0)
the origin and constitute the vertices of a regular polygon of n sides. The value of
obtained by taking the principal value of arg z and k = 0 is called the principle value.

Taking z=1, we have

Complex Function
28

 Recall from calculus that a real function f defined on a set S


of real numbers (usually an interval) is a rule that assigns to
every x in S a real number f(x), called the value of f at x. Now
in complex, S is a set of complex numbers. And a function f
defined on S is a rule that assigns to every z in S a complex
number w, called the value of f at z. We write

Here z varies in S and is called a complex variable. The set S is called the domain
of definition of f

 Circles and Disks.


The unit circle |z| = 1 (Fig. 327) has already occurred in Sec.
13.2. Figure 328 shows a general circle of radius p and center
a. Its equation is

because it is the set of all z whose distance |z — a| from the center a equals . Accordingly,
its interior ("open circular disk") is given by |z — a| < , its interior plus the circle itself
("closed circular disk") by |z — a| ≤ , and its exterior by |z — a| > 

 Figure 329 shows an open annulus (circular ring) p1 < |z -a|< p2, which
we shall need later. This is the set of all z whose distance |z — a| from a is
greater than p : but less than p2. Similarly, the closed annulus
1 ≤ |z — a| ≤ p2 includes the two circles.

 Complex analysis is concerned with the theory and


application of "analytic functions,“ that is, functions that are
differentiable in some domain, so that we can do "calculus in
complex." The definition is as follows.
