From: I.N. Galidakis on 19 Jul 2010 01:11 I am checking the holomorphicity for the complex function f(r,phi)=x(r,phi)+y(r,phi)*i on the disk D={z:|z|<r+eps}. x and y are given as: x(r,phi)=r*sin(n*phi)*cos(m*phi) y(r,phi)=r*sin(n*phi)*sin(m*phi), m,n\in N. Checking the Polar form of the Cauchy-Riemann equations for these, I find: dx/dr=sin(n*phi)*cos(m*phi) while, 1/r*dy/dphi=cos(n*phi)*n*sin(m*phi)+sin(n*phi)*cos(m*phi)*m and these don't look equal. Does this mean that f(r,phi) is not holomorphic on the disk D? Am I missing something? Thanks, -- I.

That's the form they take in standard polar coordinates. But your r and phi are _not_ standard polar coordinates! If x = r cos(phi) and y = r sin(phi) then you should find that x + iy _does_ satisfy the "polar form of the C-R equations". >Thanks,

If I understand what you are saying, if I set: theta=m*phi R=r*sin(n/m*theta) then, under this transformation, x=R*cos(theta) y=R*sin(theta) I will find that the C-R equations (for R and theta) are satisfied? Right? Thanks, >> Thanks, -- I.

I'm not sure what phi is, though. David Bernier

Right? No. If R=r*sin(n/m*theta) then R and theta are not independent. >Thanks, > >>> Thanks, |
