Math 6350 Homework #6 Solutions
1. Suppose the branch of the logarithm is chosen so that 0 < arg z < 2π. Under what
circumstances is it true that log z1 z2 = log z1 + log z2 ? Under what circumstances is it
true that log z p = p log z for a real number p?
Solution: The real parts certainly work out fine since they use only the properties of
the real logarithm: we have
ln |z1 z2 | = ln |z1 ||z2 | = ln |z1 | + ln |z2 |
and
ln |z p | = ln |z|p = p ln |z|.
Thus we only need to worry about the imaginary part.
First we ask when arg z1 z2 = arg z1 + arg z2 . The argument is assumed to be in (0, 2π),
which means the left side is in (0, 2π) while the right side can be anything between 0
and 4π. We will therefore have
(
arg z1 + arg z2
arg z1 + arg z2 < 2π
arg z1 z2 =
arg z1 + arg z2 − 2π 2π < arg z1 + arg z2 < 4π.
The condition is therefore that arg z1 + arg z2 < 2π. I’m not sure of a simpler way to
express this.
As for arg z p = p arg z, suppose z = reiθ for θ ∈ (0, 2π). Then obviously arg z = θ
so that p arg z = pθ. On the other hand z p = rp eipθ and arg z p = pθ + 2nπ for some
integer n which makes pθ + 2nπ ∈ (0, 2π). So as long as 0 < p arg z < 2π we will have
arg z p = p arg z.
2. Use the method from class to evaluate the integral
Z 2π
dt
.
5 − 3 sin t

Solution: We express this as the integral around the closed curve γ(t) = eiπt , using
the fact that on this curve
sin t =
z − 1/z
eit − e−it
=
.
2i

We have dz = ieit dt = iz dt so that dt = dz/(iz). Therefore we can turn the integral
into

which yields z = 3i and z = i/3. Only i/3 is inside the unit disc, so we may express
this integral as

Solution: Assuming a decomposition of the form

we must have A(z − i) + B(z + i) = 1 for all z, and thus B = −A and −2iA = 1 so
that A = i/2. We obtain

On the other hand if n ≤ 0 then z −n cos z is analytic at 0 and hence everywhere, so
that the integral is zero.

5. Ahlfors pg. 123 #2: Prove that a function f which is analytic on the whole plane and
satisfies an inequality |f (z)| < |z|n for some n and all sufficiently large z reduces to a
polynomial.
Solution: We will prove that f (n+1) (z) = 0 for all z ∈ C, which implies that f is a
polynomial of degree n. Using formula (24) we have

For fixed z, let R go to infinity, and we get |f (n+1) (z)| ≤ 0, which implies f (n+1) (z) = 0
as desired.
6. From “Counterexamples in Analysis” by Gelbaum and Olmsted. Define
(

x3 /y 2 e−x /y y > 0
f (x, y) =
0
y ≤ 0.
(a) Show that f is smooth (infinitely differentiable) in x for fixed y.
Solution: If y > 0 then obviously the function is smooth since it’s just a rescaling
2
of x3 e−x which is smooth. If y ≤ 0 then it’s the zero function which is smooth
in x.
(b) Show that f is continuous in y for any fixed x.
Solution: It’s clearly continuous at points y > 0 and at points y < 0, so we just
have to check that it’s continuous at y = 0. We have
lim+ f (x, y) = lim+
y→0
y→0

x u→+∞ eu
y 2 ex2 /y z→+∞ ex2 z
by L’Hopital’s rule. We also have limy→0− f (x, y) = f (x, 0) = 0, and since these
all match we have continuity in y.
(c) Show that

2 /y
whenever x 6= 0. Of course if x = 0 then the integral is zero, so this formula
always works. Differentiating we get
Z 1
d 2
2 f (x, y) dy = (e−x − 2x2 e−x )x=0 = 1.
dx x=0 0
Now we work on the right side. We compute (if y > 0) that
∂
∂ 3 2 −x2 /y

f (x, y) =
x /y e
= 3x2 /y 2 e−x /y − 2x4 /y 3 e−x /y ,
∂x
∂x
∂ and evaluating at x = 0 we obtain ∂x
f (x, y) = 0. On the other hand if y ≤ 0
x=0
then the derivative is clearly zero for any x (and thus for x = 0). Thus the integral
of the zero function is zero, and the right side is always zero.
(d) Show that f is not continuous at (0, 0).
Solution: We have f (0, 0) = 0 and we want to find a sequence (xn , yn ) such that
(xn , yn ) → 0 and f (xn , yn ) does not converge to zero. Suppose yn = x2n /k for
some k; then we have
k 2 e−k
.
f (xn , yn ) =
xn
Since (xn , yn ) → (0, 0), we must have xn → 0, so f (xn , yn ) → ∞.
