Complex Functions

Suppose w=f(z)w=f(z) where z,w∈Cz,w \in \mathbb{C}. Input and output points are marked in 2 separate complex planes.

Complex function mapping

Here:

z,w∈Cz,w \in \mathbb{C}
Here:
DD
domain of ff
D′D'
codomain of ff

Image

Image of ff is the set:

{f(z)  ∣  z∈D}\big\{ f(z)\;|\;z\in D \big\}

Cartesian Form

f(z)=u(x,y)+iv(x,y)f(z) = u(x,y) + iv(x,y)

Here u,vu, v are real functions.
