Tutorial Sheet 7

1. Find all the entire functions f = u + ιv such that u(x, y) = x2 − y 2 .


2. Find all the entire functions f = u + ιv such that u(x, y) = x2 + y 2 .

3. Let f = u + ιv be an entire function such that f (z) = f (x, y) = u(x) + ιv(y). Show that f is a
polynomial in z of degree ≤ 1.

4. Find the radius of convergence of n≥0 (1 + (−1)n )n X n , n≥0 2n! X n , n≥1 nn!n X n .

5. We know for |z| < 1, the series Pn≥0 z n is nothing but the function 1/(z − 1). Using this find out
P
the function given by the series n≥0 nz n in B(0, 1).

6. Let n≥0 an X n be a formal power series with radius of convergence 1. Suppose the series n≥0 an
P P
converges to a. Then show that X
lim− an rn = a.

Use this to prove that log 2 = 1 − 1/2 + 1/3 − 1/4 + · · · .


7. Let f : D → C be a branch of logarithm. Show that for any integer n, the function z n = enf (z) for
all z ∈ D. Use this idea to define a branch of the square root function, which extends the function
√
x for non-negative real numbers x to D. What is the principal branch of this function? Write
down the power series expansion of this function around 1.

8. Let γ(t) = eit for t ∈ [0, 2π]. Calculate the integrals γ ez2 , γ sinz z , γ sin z

9. Let f Rbe a continuous real valued function on B(0, 2) such that |f | is bounded above by 1. Show
that | γ f | ≤ 4 where γ(t) = eit for t ∈ [0, 2π].
10. Let U be a subset of C such that for every z ∈ U , we have −z ∈ U . Then a map f : U → C is said to
be even (resp. odd) if f (−z) = f (z) (resp. f (−z) = −f (z)) for all z ∈ U . Prove that an even (resp.
odd) entire function has only even (resp. odd) degree terms in its power series expansion around 0.

11. Let f be an entire function such that |f (z)| ≤ A + B|z|3/2 for all z ∈ C. Show that f is a linear
polynomial.
12. Let f be an entire function such that |f ′ (z)| ≤ |z| for all z ∈ C. Show that f (z) = a + bz 2 with
|b| ≤ 1/2.

13. Let f be an entire function such that there exists a positive integer n with the property that |f (z)| ≥
|z|n as |z| → ∞. Show that f is a polynomial of degree at least n.
14. Let P be a polynomial such that P (x) ∈ R if and only if x ∈ R. Show that P is a linear polynomial.
