Differentiability

A complex function ff is differentiable at z0z_0 iff:

lim⁡z→z0f(z)−f(z0)z−z0=L=f′(z0)\lim_{z\to z_0}{\frac{f(z)-f(z_0)}{z-z_0}} = L = f'(z_0)

f′(z0)f'(z_0) is called the derivative of ff at z0z_0. Properties of Differentiability | Real Analysis can be applied to complex functions.

Singular Point

A point z0z_0 where f(z)f(z) is not differentiable.

Neighbourhood

Suppose z0∈Cz_0 \in \mathbb{C}. A neighborhood of z0z_0 is the region contained in the circle ∣z−z0∣=r>0|z - z_0| = r \gt 0.
