2 V (994), pp Some peculiarities of derivative of complex function [, p7] As one can see from the definitions, the most general concept of the function of a complex variable is not limited by some before-conditioned direct relation 78 between the real variables u(x, y) and v(x, y) In particular, the functions w= u xy, + iv x ; ; w= u x + iv y w= u y + iv x and so on are also the functions of a complex variable, because to set up the correspondence between (3) and (), it is sufficient to present x and y in the form x= Re z; y = Im z With it the mentioned particular forms of the function of a complex variable fully satisfy the conditions of continuous and one-valued mapping, if this last was understood not in Caushy Riemann presentation, but more generally, in the Caushy or Heine sense Actually, "the function f ( z ) is continuous at the point z 0 if it was assigned in some vicinity z 0 (including the point z 0 itself) and lim f z = f z " (4) z z0 0 [, p0] "At z z0 the function w = f ( z ) has the number w0 as its limit in the Caushy sense, if for each ε > 0 such δ ( ε ) > 0 exists that the inequality 79 f ( z) w0 < ε is true for all z E C( δ, z0) f ( xy) = f ( x y ) x x0 y y0 x x0 y y0 " [, p35] Noting this, we can write (4) as lim Re, Re, ; 0 0 = lim Im f xy, Im f x, y 0 0 because the following statements are true: δ > z z0 = ( x x0) + i( y y0) x x 0 x x0 < δ ; δ > z z0 = ( x x0) + i( y y0) i( y y0) y y0 < δ ; ε > w w0 = u u0 + i v v0 u u 0 u u0 < ε ; ε > w w v v 0 = u u0 + i v v0 i v v0 0 < ε Substituting any function from (3) into (6), we yield that in case of continuous functions of real arguments u and v, the function of complex variable w is continuous too And vice versa, if at least one of functions of real arguments u and v was discontinuous, the function of complex variable w is discontinuous too, because at least one of equalities of (6) is violated The same simply we can prove the relation between the one-valuedness of mapping z onto w and onevaluedness of functions of a real argument u and v (3) (5) (6)

5 SELF SB Karavashkin 5 y ϕ ρ A z 0 ϕ 0 ρ 0 B z ρ ψ O ϕ ϕ 0 x As we see from (3), dz depends only on one real variable ρ, and at the same time it notes all partial differentials in δ -vicinity of z 0 This property of the differential of z reveals the most visually when representing z in polar form To show it, consider the triangle OAB (see Fig 3) formed by the radius-vectors iϕ0 iϕ z0 = ρ0e ; z = ρ0e ; ρ (4) In accord with the sine theorem ρ ρ =, sin π + ϕ ψ sin ϕ 0 whence ρ sin ϕ = sin ( ψ ϕ0) ; ρ Fig 3 Geometric construction in addition to Fig for calculation the increment z on the complex plane Z (5) ρ ϕ ψ ϕ In accord with the cosine theorem, cos = sin 0 ρ ρ = ρ + ρ + ρρ cos ψ ϕ Substituting (7) into (6), we yield ρ0 + ρcos( ψ ϕ0) cos ϕ = ρ (6) (7) (8) 85 Noting that iϕ iϕ0 z = ρ0e = ρ0e ( cos ϕ + isin ϕ), yield iϕ0 iϕ0 iϕ0 iψ z = ρ0e + ρe cos( ψ ϕ0) + isin ( ψ ϕ0) = ρ0e + ρe (9) And from (9) we yield 86

6 V (994), pp Some peculiarities of derivative of complex function 6 z = ρe iψ dz = lim z = dρe ρ 0 iψ ; (0) We see from this derivation that the form itself of writing the total differential of dz with the fixed value of the direction of differentiation (the angle ψ ) turns one of the independent variables (ϕ) into a non-differentiable parameter depending only on the location of a point in which this total differential is sought, and the second differential of dρ does not depend on z z0 subtend direction, so this is the differential in a common sense This derivation demonstrates also that the form of total differential does not depend on the way, how z is presented And finally, at ψ = 0 dz = dρcos ψ = dx, and at ψ = π / dz = idυsin ψ = idy If we abstract from the way, how the partial differentials dx and dy were compared, and substitute into (0) the limits taken from (), we will obtain dz = dx+ idy, ie the conventional value of the total differential This fully corroborates the validity to identify dz with the total differential in the form (0) Now determine the differential of w at the point w 0 at the condition that there 87 exists a one-valued mapping of the δ -vicinity of the complex plane z into the ε -vicinity of the complex plane w As we proved before, a function of a complex variable can be presented the most generally as w= f ( zxy,, ) = f ρ( cosϕ + isin ϕ) ; ρcos ϕ; ρsin ϕ The increment in the function at the point w 0 takes the following form: iϕ0 ψ w= f ( ρ e + ρe ; [ cos cos ] ;[ sin sin ] ) 0 ρ ϕ + ρ ψ ρ ϕ + ρ ψ () f ρ cosϕ + isin ϕ ; ρ cos ϕ ; ρ sin ϕ and ( 0( 0 0) ) We see from () that w= f ( ρ) = ( ρ) = ( ρ) dw z lim f df ρ 0 w depends, as z, on one variable ρ Thus we can write With the help of obtained differentials of an independent variable z and complex function w( z ), we can easy obtain an expression for the total derivative of a complex function For it we will use (9), (0) and (): dw( z) lim w( z) f ( ρ) = = lim = dz z 0 z ρ 0 ρ cosψ + isinψ 88 ()

7 SELF SB Karavashkin 7 ( ρ) df ( ρ) ( ψ i ψ ) ( ψ i ψ ) f = lim cos sin = cos sin ρ 0 ρ dρ (3) Now find the form of presentation of the total derivative of a complex variable with respect to z presented in the co-ordinate form, using () (3) takes the following form: dw( z) u v = ( cosψ isinψ) + i ( cosψ isinψ) = dz (4) u v v u = cosψ + sinψ + i cosψ sin ψ To transit in (4) from partial derivative with respect to ρ to those with respect to x and y, we have to make a substitution: u u u = + ; (5) v v v = + And it follows from (0) that = cosψ and = sin ψ (6) Substituting sequentially (6) into (5) and (4), we yield dw( z) u v u v = cos ψ + sin ψ + + sinψ cosψ + dz v u v u + i cos ψ sin ψ + sinψ cosψ = w w = cosψ + sinψ ( cosψ isinψ) = w w w w = ψ i ψ i + i ψ ψ cos sin sin cos To the point, when Caushy Riemann conditions u v v u = ; = are true, the intermediate expression (7) becomes independent on the angle ψ This last is one of the proofs that in their essence Caushy Riemann conditions only define the class of functions of a complex variable having a central symmetry 89 To write the form of the second total derivative for the function of a complex variable, use the principle of the double sequential mapping f d/ dz dw z w (8) dz Note that the differentiation directions of the first and second derivatives for the function of a complex variable can be generally not the same So (7)

8 V (994), pp Some peculiarities of derivative of complex function 8 dw d dw d dw iψ w i ( ψ ψ) = e e = = (9) dz dz dz dz dρ To present the second derivative in co-ordinate form, substitute to (7) the value of dw/dz taken from (7) After transformation we yield dw w w w i( ψ+ ψ) = cosψ cosψ sinψ sinψ sin ( ψ ψ) e dz xy (30) For functions of complex variable satisfying Caushy Riemann conditions, we can find the second derivative, noting that according to (5), the following equality is a complex analogue of Caushy Riemann equations: 90 w w = i Differentiate (3) with respect to x w w = i, xy and with respect to y w w i = xy Multiply (33) by i and subtract it from (3): w w = w Substituting in (30) the terms and xy w in accord with (3) and (34), we yield dw w = (35) dz x Proceeding the same with the rest derivatives, we yield w w w dw = = = i (36) z dxdy The equality (36) evidences that for the functions analytical after Caushy Riemann, the total second derivative with respect to z retains its independence of the direction of its calculation and depends neither on ψ nor on ψ Now express w( x, y) in (33) through u and v It leads us to the following system: u u + = 0 (37) and v v + = 0, (38) which are Laplace equations for two variables One more property of the centrally symmetric functions of complex variable follows from this: w w + = 0 (39) It means that both their real and imaginary parts must satisfy Laplace equations (3) (3) (33) (34)

9 SELF SB Karavashkin 9 Summing up, the carried out investigation shows that the theory of complex variables contains much wider scope And a part of them can be extended to the vector algebra tool, to the theory of functions of several variables And some results can be used even to analyse real functions of one variable In this connection I hope that despite the simplicity of statements, this paper will be evaluated properly and it will gain a proper development, the same as other areas of mathematics 9 As an example, consider an application to solving the following second-order differential equation: dw( z) dw( z) z + z + ( z n ) w( z) = 0 (40) dz dz [3, p6] To simplify the solution, present z in polar form: z = ρe ϕ (4) Substituting (3), (9) and (4) into (40), we yield: w( ρ) i( ψ ) ϕ w ρ i( ψ+ ψ) i( ψ+ ψ ϕ) ρ + ρe + ρ e ne w ( ρ) = 0 (4) It is obvious from the above analysis that in (4) only ρ is a variable, all other variables ϕ, ψ and ψ become the parameters And their quantities are not fixed by the statement of problem; this can be used when finding the solution of (40) Note also that after writing the total derivative in the forms (3) and (9), the obtained derivatives with respect to ρ become the derivatives in a common sense In this connection the substitution 9 ( + ) t = ρe ψ ψ i is true, and (4) takes the following form: dwt i( ψ ) ϕ dw t i( ψ+ ψ ϕ) t + te + t ne wt = 0 dt dt We will seek the solution of (43) in the form α wt = t Θ t, where α is some parameter independent of ρ Substituting (44) into (43), we yield i( ψ ϕ) Θ d Θ t d t + dt + + dt t α e t ( ) i ψ+ ψ ϕ i ψ ϕ + t ne α α αe t + + Θ = 0 Take i( ) e ψ α = ϕ Then d Θ( t) i( ψ ϕ) iψ iϕ iψ t + t e ne e e ( t) 0 dt + Θ = 4 If in (47) iψ iϕ iψ ne e + e = 0, 4 (43) (44) (45) (46) (47) (48)
