1 MATH15 Basic results on complex numbers beyond school mathematics 1. In school mathematics we have tacitly accepted that it makes sense to talk about complex numbers. Each such number is a mathematical object of the form a+bi, in which a,b are some real numbers, and i is a special number satisfying the relation i 2 = 1. We have accepted that it makes sense to talk about sums, differences, products, and quotients for such numbers: Let a,b,c,d be real numbers. Consider the complex numbers a+bi, c+di. (a) We define the sum of a+bi and c+di as (a+c)+(b+d)i. (b) We define the difference of a+bi from c+di as (a c)+(b d)i. (c) We define the product of a+bi and c+di as (ac bd)+(ad+bc)i. (d) Provided that c or d, we define the quotient of a+bi by c+di as ac+bd c 2 +d 2 + ad+bc c 2 +d 2 i. We tacitly assumed that these arithmetic operations obey the usual laws of arithmetic which hold for real numbers. Based on this understanding and what we have learnt in Euclidean plane geometry (and plane coordinate geometry and plane vector geometry), we are going to develop further definitions and results on complex numbers. 2. Definition. Let be a complex number. Denote the real part and the imaginary part of by Re(), Im() respectively. (So = Re()+iIm().) The complex conjugate of is defined to be the complex number Re() iim(). It is denoted by. The modulus of, denoted by, is defined to be the non-negative real number (Re()) 2 +(Im()) Theorem (1). Let, w be complex numbers. The statements below hold: (1) Re() = + and Im() =. 2 2i ( Re() = Re(), Im() = Im() and =. (3) =. (4) Re( +w) = Re()+Re(w) and Im( +w) = Im()+Im(w). (5) Re(w) = Re()Re(w) Im()Im(w) and Im(w) = Re()Im(w) + Im()Re(w). (6) +w = +w and w = w. Proof. Exercise. (Straightforward manipulation.) 4. Complex numbers and Euclidean plane geometry. (7) 2 =. (8) w = w. (9) Re() and Im(). (1) Re(w) w. (11) +w + w and w w. (1 +w 2 + w 2 = w 2. Each complex number may be thought of as the point on the infinite plane, known in this context as the Argand plane, with rectangular coordinates (Re(), Im()). We refer to the point (Re(),Im()) simply as the point. is the (Euclidean) distance between and. It is also the length of the vector pointing from to. is the point obtained by reflecting the point with respect to the. (How about,?) iim() Re() Re() iim() 1
2 Remark. The basic definitions and results concerned with the arithmetic of complex numbers, together with all results in Theorem (1), can be given geometric interpretation on the Argand plane. Further remark. The basic definitions, such as collinearity, perpendicularity and parallelism, and results in Euclidean plane geometry can be expressed in terms of complex numbers. 5. Theorem (. (Geometric interpretation of addition.) Let,w be distinct non-ero complex numbers. The points,, w, +w are the vertices of a parallelogram in which: the line segment joining and is parallel to the line segment joining w and +w, the line segment joining and w is parallel to the line segment joining and +w, and the line segment joining and w and the line segment joining and +w are diagonals. +w w Proof. Exercise in coordinate geometry (or vector geometry) in school maths. Remarks. (a) Hence the relation +w 2 + w 2 = w 2 is known as the paralellogramic identity in this context. (b) We may further interpret adding by w as: translating the line segment joinint to to the line segment joining w and +w via parallelism. (c) Can you provide a geometric interpretation for the inequality + w + w? (It is called the Triangle Inequality.) 6. Corollary to Theorem (1). (Geometric interpretation of subtraction.) Let u,v be distinct non-ero complex numbers. The point u v is the number so that, v, u v, v forms the vertices of a parallelogram in which: the line segment joining and u v is parallel to the line segment joining v and u, the line segment joining and v is parallel to the line segment joining u v and u, and the line segment joining and u and the line segment joining v and u v are diagonals. u u v v Proof. This is an immediate consequence of Theorem (. Remarks. (a) We may further interpret subtracting u by v as: translating the line segment joinint v to u to the line segment joining and u v via parallelism. (b) u v is the (Euclidean) distance between u and v. 2
3 7. Theorem (3). (Circles, and the geometric interpretation of modulus.) Let p be a complex number, and r be a positive number. The equation p = r with unknown in the complex numbers describes the circle with centre p and of radius r. p r Proof. Exercise in coordinate geometry (or vector geometry) in school maths. Remark. We may think of the equation p = as the degenerate circle with centre p and of radius. Further remark. How about the geometric interpretation of the inequality p < r with unknown? 8. Theorem (4). (Geometric interpretation of multiplication by real numbers.) Let be a non-ero complex number, and c be a real number. (a) Suppose c >. Then c is the complex number on the same half line starting from and joining so that the distance between and c is c. c (b) Suppose c <. Then c is the complex number on the same half line starting from and joining so that the distance between and c is c. Proof. Exercise in coordinate geometry (or vector geometry) in school maths. 9. Theorem (5). (Geometric interpretation of multiplication by i) Suppose be a non-ero complex number. Then the points, i,, i are the four vertices of a square in which the line segment joining, and the line segment joining i, i are the diagonals. The latter is obtained by rotating the former about the point by π/2 radians, so that i is obtained from, and i is obtained from. i i Proof. Exercise in coordinate geometry in school maths. 3
4 1. Theorem (6). Let be a complex number. There exists some θ R such that = (cos(θ)+isin(θ)). Remark. (a) The expression = Re()+iIm() is referred to as the standard form of. (b) The expression = (cos(θ)+isin(θ)) (for some appropriate θ) is referred to as the polar form of. Proof. Let be a complex number. We have = or ( and Re() ) or ( and Re() < ). (Case 1). Suppose =. Then (it is trivially true that) = = (cos()+isin()). (Case. Suppose and Re(). Note that 1 Im() 1. Define θ = arcsin( Im() ). We have Im() = sin(θ), and Re() = cos(θ). Then = (cos(θ)+isin(θ)). (Case 3). Suppose and Re() <. Define w =. We have w and Re(w) >. By the argument for (Case, there exists some θ R, namely θ = arcsin( Im(w) ), such that w = w (cos(θ )+ w isin(θ )). Define θ = θ +π. Then = w = w (cos(θ )+isin(θ )) w ( cos(θ ) isin(θ )) = (cos(θ)+isin(θ)). 11. Definition. Let be a non-ero complex number, and θ be a real number. Suppose the equality = (cos(θ)+isin(θ)) holds. Then θ is said to be an argument for. Further suppose π < θ π. Then θ is called the principal argument for, and we write θ = arg(). Remark. We do not write the argument of the (non-ero) complex number so-and-so, because the same non-ero complex number has infinitely many different arguments. (For example, for each n Z, 2nπ is an argument of 1.) However, each non-ero complex number has exactly one principal argument. So we should write the principal argument of the (non-ero) complex number so-and-so. 12. Theorem (7). (Multiplication and division for complex numbers in polar form.) Suppose, w are non-ero complex numbers, with arguments θ, ϕ respectively. Then: (a) w = w (cos(θ +ϕ)+isin(θ +ϕ)), and w = (cos(θ ϕ)+isin(θ ϕ)). w (b) The modulus of w is w, and the modulus of w is w. (c) θ +ϕ is an argument for w, and θ ϕ is an argument for w. w = w (cos(θ +ϕ)+isin(θ +ϕ)) w = w (cos(ϕ)+isin(ϕ)) = (cos(θ)+isin(θ)) Proof. Exercise. (The compound-angle formulae for the sine and cosine functions are needed here.) 4
5 13. Corollary to Theorem (7). Let be a non-ero complex number, and θ be an argument of. 2 = 2 (cos(2θ)+isin(2θ)). 14. Theorem (8). Let w,ζ be non-ero complex numbers, and ϕ be an argument of w. Suppose w = ζ 2. Then ζ = ( w cos +isin or ζ = ) ( w cos +isin. ) Proof. Apply Corollary to Theorem (7). Remark. Thetwodistinctnon-erocomplexnumbers w are the square roots of the complex number w. Further remark. How to interpret Theorem (8) in terms of plane geometry? w = w (cos(ϕ)+isin(ϕ)) ( cos +isin, ) ( w cos +isin ) ζ 1 = w (cos(ϕ/+isin(ϕ/) ζ 2 = w (cos(ϕ/+isin(ϕ/) 15. Theorem (9). (Roots of quadratic polynomials with complex coefficients.) Let a,b,c be complex numbers, with a. Let α be a number. Let f() be the quadratic polynomial given by f() = a 2 +b +c. (a) Suppose α is a root of f(). Let β = b α. Then the statements below hold: a i. f() = a( α)( β) as polynomials. ii. β is a root of f(). iii. αβ = c a. (b) Define f = b 2 4ac. We call f the discriminant of the polynomial f(x). Then the statements below hold: [ ( i. f() = a + b ) ] 2 f 2a 4a 2 as polynomials. (This polynomial equality is referred as completing the square for the quadratic polynomial f().) f ii. Suppose f. Suppose σ is a square root of 4a 2. Define α ± = b ±σ respectively. Then f() 2a has two distinct roots amongst the complex numbers, namely α +,α, and f() is completely factoried as f() = a( α + )( α ). iii. Now suppose f = instead. Then f() has a repeated root, namely, b/2a, amongst the complex numbers, and f() is completely factoried as f() = a( +b/2a) 2. Remark. What the above result says is that each quadratic polynomial with complex coefficients f() has a pair of roots and factories into linear polynomials. Moreover, if the polynomial f() is given by f() = a 2 +b+c and the pair of roots concerned are α,β, then α+β = b a and αβ = c. Furthermore, regarding the quadratic equation a a 2 +b +c = ( ) with unknown x, there are exactly two mutually exclusive possibilities: (1) Suppose f. Then the equation ( ) has exactly two distinct solutions amongst the complex numbers. ( Suppose f =. Then the equation ( ) has exactly one repeated solution amongst the complex numbers. 5
6 In any case, the equation ( ) has at least one solution amongst the complex numbers. Proof. maths.) 16. Appendix. Exercise. (Generalie what you have learnt about quadratic polynomials with real coefficients in school Theorem (9) is significant in two ways: (a) This result for quadratic polynomials is a baby case of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, first proved by Gauss, which says: Every non-constant polynomial with coefficients in complex numbers has at least one root amongst the complex numbers. In fact Gauss gave several proofs for this result. (You will probably learn one proof in your complex variables course.) (b) We can express all the roots of every quadratic polynomial with coefficients in complex numbers in terms of its coefficients with the help of the operations +,,,, and with the taking of (square) roots. So it is natural to ask whether we can do the same thing for cubic polynomials, quartic polynomials, quintic polynomials et cetera. The answer is yes for cubic polynomials and quartic polynomials, but no in general for higher-degree polynomials. (You will know more about these in your abstract algebra course.) 6
