Maths Complex analysis

Course Description:

Complex Analysis is a fundamental tool with numerous practical applications for solving physical problems. This course focuses on complex analytic functions—functions that possess a complex derivative. In contrast to calculus with real variables, the existence of a complex derivative imposes significant constraints on the function's properties. Applications covered in this course include harmonic functions, efficient techniques for evaluating difficult integrals, power series, and residue theory.

General Objectives:

  1. Provide students with a comprehensive understanding of complex analysis and its foundational concepts.
  2. Introduce students to complex functions, their derivatives, and methods for visualizing their graphical representations.
  3. Introduce students to advanced techniques for evaluating integrals, utilizing power series, and applying residue theory.
Target Audience:  

         3rd-year students in Microelectronic IC Design.
