Everything about Complex analysis

Branch of mathematics studying functions of a complex variable

Complex analysis, traditionally known as the theory of functions of a complex variable, is the branch of mathematical analysis that studies complex-valued functions of one or more complex variables. It is used in many branches of mathematics, including functional analysis, algebraic geometry, number theory, analytic combinatorics, and applied mathematics, as well as in physics, including the branches of hydrodynamics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and twistor theory. It also has applications in engineering fields, such as nuclear, aerospace, mechanical, and electrical engineering. Wikipedia →
