We begin with a simple observation connecting differentiability of
a function of a complex variable to a relation among of partial derivatives
of the real and imaginary parts of the function.
Actually, we have already visited this point in (Reference).
Let f=u+ivf=u+iv be a complex-valued function of a complex variable z=x+iy≡(x,y),z=x+iy≡(x,y),
and suppose ff is differentiable, as a function of a complex variable, at the point c=(a,b).c=(a,b).
Then the following two partial differential equations,
known as the Cauchy-Riemann Equations, hold:

(5)Equating the real and imaginary parts of these two equivalent expressions for f'(c)f'(c)
gives the Cauchy-Riemann equations.
As an immediate corollary of this theorem, together with Green's Theorem ((Reference)),
we get the following result, which is a special case of what is known as Cauchy's Theorem.
Let SS be a piecewise smooth geometric set whose boundary CSCS has finite length.
Suppose ff is a complex-valued function that is continuous on SS
and differentiable at each point of the interior S0S0 of S.S.
Then the contour integral ∫CSf(ζ)dζ=0.∫CSf(ζ)dζ=0.
- Prove the preceding corollary.
See (Reference).
- Suppose f=u+ivf=u+iv is a differentiable, complex-valued function on an open
disk Br(c)Br(c) in C,C,
and assume that the real part uu is a constant function. Prove that ff
is a constant function.
Derive the same result assuming that vv is a constant function.
- Suppose ff and gg are two differentiable, complex-valued
functions on an open disk Br(c)Br(c) in C.C.
Show that, if the real part of ff is equal to the real part of g,g,
then there exists a constant kk such that f(z)=g(z)+k,f(z)=g(z)+k, for all z∈Br(c).z∈Br(c).
For future computational purposes, we give the following
implications of the Cauchy-Riemann equations.
As with Theorem 1, this next theorem mixes the notions of differentiability
of a function of a complex variable and the partial derivatives of its
real and imaginary parts.
Let f=u+ivf=u+iv be a complex-valued function of a complex variable,
and suppose that ff is differentiable at the point c=(a,b).c=(a,b).

if and only if f'(c)≠0.f'(c)≠0. - The vectors

(9)proving part (1).
The vectors V→1V→1 and V→2V→2 are the columns of the matrix A,A,
and so, from elementary linear algebra, we see that they are linearly independent if and only if the
determinant of AA is nonzero.
Hence, part (2) follows from part (1).
Similarly, part (3) is a consequence of part (1).
It may come as no surprise that the contour integral
of a function ff around the boundary of a geometric set SS is not
necessarily 0 if the function ff is not differentiable at each point in the interior of S.S.
However, it is exactly these kinds of contour integrals that will occupy our attention in the rest of this chapter,
and we shouldn't jump to any conclusions.
Let cc be a point in C,C, and let SS be the geometric set that is a closed disk B¯r(c).B¯r(c).
Let φφ be the parameterization of the boundary CrCr of SS given by
φ(t)=c+reitφ(t)=c+reit for t∈[0,2π].t∈[0,2π].
For each integer n∈Z,n∈Z, define fn(z)=(z-c)n.fn(z)=(z-c)n.
- Show that ∫Crfn(ζdζ=0∫Crfn(ζdζ=0 for all n≠-1.n≠-1.
- Show that
∫Crf-1(ζ)dζ=∫Cr1ζ-cdζ=2πi.∫Crf-1(ζ)dζ=∫Cr1ζ-cdζ=2πi.
(10)
There is a remarkable result about contour integrals of certain functions that aren't
differentiable everywhere within a geometric set, and it is what has been called the
Fundamental Theorem of Analysis, or Cauchy's Theorem.
This theorem has many general statements, but we present one here that is quite broad and certainly
adequate for our purposes.
Let SS be a piecewise smooth geometric set whose boundary CSCS has finite length, and
let S^⊆S0S^⊆S0 be a piecewise smooth geometric set, whose boundary CS^CS^ also is of finite length.
Suppose ff is continuous on S∩S^0˜,S∩S^0˜, i.e., at
every point zz that is in SS but not in S^0,S^0,
and assume that ff is differentiable on S0∩S^˜,S0∩S^˜,
i.e., at every point zz in S0S0 but not in S^.S^.
(We think of these sets as being the points “between” the boundary curves of these geometric sets.)
Then the two contour integrals
∫CSf(ζ)dζ∫CSf(ζ)dζ and ∫CS^f(ζ)dζ∫CS^f(ζ)dζ are equal.
Let the geometric set SS be determined by the interval [a,b][a,b] and the
two bounding functions uu and l,l, and let the geometric set
S^S^ be determined by the subinterval [a^,b^][a^,b^] of [a,b][a,b] and the two bounding functions
u^u^ and l^.l^.
Because S^⊆S0,S^⊆S0, we know that u^(t)<u(t)u^(t)<u(t) and l(t)<l^(t)l(t)<l^(t) for all t∈[a^,b^].t∈[a^,b^].
We define four geometric sets S1,...,S4S1,...,S4 as follows:
- S1S1 is determined by the interval [a,a^][a,a^] and the two bounding functions uu and ll restricted to that interval.
- S2S2 is determined by the interval [a^,b^][a^,b^] and the two bounding functions
uu and u^u^ restricted to that interval.
- S3S3 is determined by the interval [a^,b^][a^,b^] and the two bounding functions l^l^ and ll
restricted to that interval.
- S4S4 is determined by the interval [b^,b][b^,b] and the two bounding
functions uu and ll restricted to that interval.
Observe that the five sets S^,S1,...,S4S^,S1,...,S4 constitute a partition of the geometric set S.S.
The corollary to Theorem 1 applies to each of the four geometric sets S1,...,S4.S1,...,S4.
Hence, the contour integral of ff around each of the four boundaries of these geometric sets is 0.

- Draw a picture of the five geometric sets in the proof above and
justify the claim that the sum of the four contour integrals around the geometric sets S1,...,S4S1,...,S4
is the integral around CSCS minus the integral around CS^.CS^.
- Let S1,...,SnS1,...,Sn be pairwise disjoint, piecewise smooth geometric sets, each
having a boundary of finite length, and each contained
in a piecewise smooth geometric set SS
whose boundary also has finite length.
Prove that the SkSk's are some of the elements of a partition {S˜l}{S˜l} of S,S,
each of which is piecewise smooth and has a boundary of finite length.
Show that, by reindexing, S1,...,SnS1,...,Sn can be chosen to be the first nn elements of the partition {S^l}.{S^l}.
HINT: Just carefully adjust the proof of (Reference).
- Suppose SS is a piecewise smooth geometric set whose boundary has finite length,
and let S1,...,SnS1,...,Sn be a partition of SS for which each SkSk is piecewise smooth
and has a boundary CSkCSk of finite length.
Suppose ff is continuous on each of the boundaries CSkCSk of the SkSk's as well as the boundary CSCS of S,S,
and assume that ff is continuous on each of the SkSk's, for 1≤k≤m,1≤k≤m,
and differentiable at each point of their interiors.
Prove that
∫CSf(ζ)dζ=∑k=m+1n∫CSkf(ζ)dζ.∫CSf(ζ)dζ=∑k=m+1n∫CSkf(ζ)dζ.
(12) - Prove the following generalization of the Cauchy Theorem:
Let S1,...,SnS1,...,Sn be pairwise disjoint, piecewise smooth geometric sets whose boundaries have finite length, all contained
in the interior of a piecewise smooth geometric set SS whose boundary also has finite length.
Suppose ff is continuous at each point of SS that is not in the interior of any of the SkSk's,
and that ff is differentiable at each point of S0S0 that is not an element of any of the SkSk's.
Prove that
∫CSf(ζ)dζ=∑k=1n∫CSkf(ζ)dζ.∫CSf(ζ)dζ=∑k=1n∫CSkf(ζ)dζ.
(13)
Perhaps the main application of Theorem 3 is what's called the Cauchy Integral Formula.
It may not appear to be useful at first glance, but we will be able to use it over and over throughout this chapter.
In addition to its theoretical uses, it is the basis
for a technique for actually evaluating contour integrals, line integrals, as well as ordinary integrals.
Let SS be a piecewise smooth geometric set whose boundary CSCS has finite length,
and let ff be a continuous function on SS that is
differentiable on the interior S0S0 of S.S.

(14)REMARK
This theorem is an initial glimpse at how
differentiable functions of a complex variable are remarkably
different from differentiable functions of a real variable.
Indeed, Cauchy's Integral Formula shows that the values of a differentiable function ff at all points in the interior of a geometric set SS
are completely determined by the values of that function on the boundary of the set.
The analogous thing for a function of a real variable would be to say that
all the values of a differentiable function ff at points in the open interval (a,b)(a,b) are completely determined by its values at the endpoints aa and b.b.
This is patently absurd for functions of a real variable, so there surely is something marvelous going on for differentiable functions of a complex variable.
Let rr be any positive number such that B¯r(z)B¯r(z) is contained in the interior S0S0 of S,S,
and note that the close disk B¯r(z)B¯r(z) is a piecewise smooth geometric set S^S^
contained in S0.S0.
We will write CrCr instead of CS^CS^ for the boundary of this disk,
and we will use as a parameterization of the curve CrCr the function
φ:[0,2π]→Crφ:[0,2π]→Cr given by
φ(t)=z+reit.φ(t)=z+reit.
Now the function g(ζ)=f(ζ)/(ζ-z)g(ζ)=f(ζ)/(ζ-z) is continuous
on S∩S^0˜S∩S^0˜ and differentiable
on S0∩S^˜,S0∩S^˜,
so that Theorem 3 applies to the function g.g. Hence

(15)Since the equality established above is valid, independent of r,r, we may
take the limit as rr goes to 0, and the equality will persist.

sequence {fn}{fn} converges uniformly to the constant function f(z)f(z) on the interval [0,2π].[0,2π].
So, by Theorem 5.6, we have that

(18)and the theorem is proved.
The next exercise gives two simple but strong consequences of the Cauchy
Integral Formula, and it would be wise to spend a few minutes
deriving other similar results.
- Let SS and ff be as in the preceding theorem,
and assume that f(z)=0f(z)=0 for every point on the boundary CSCS of S.S.
Prove that f(z)=0f(z)=0 for every z∈S.z∈S.
- Let SS be as in part (a), and suppose that
ff and gg are two continuous functions on S,S, both differentiable on S0,S0, and such that f(ζ)=g(ζ)f(ζ)=g(ζ) for every point on the boundary of S.S.
Prove that f(z)=g(z)f(z)=g(z) for all z∈S.z∈S.
The preceding exercise shows that two differentiable functions of a complex variable
are equal everywhere on a piecewise smooth geometric set SS if they agree on the boundary of the set.
More is true. We will see below in the Identity Theorem that they are equal everywhere on a piecewise smooth geometric set SS if they
agree just along a single convergent sequence in the interior of S.S.
Combining part (b) of Exercise 3, (Reference), and Theorem 3,
we obtain the following corollary:
Let S1,...,SnS1,...,Sn be pairwise disjoint, piecewise smooth geometric sets whose boundaries have finite length, all contained
in the interior of a piecewise smooth geometric set SS whose boundary has finite length.
Suppose ff is continuous at each point of SS that is not in the interior of any of the SkSk's,
and that ff is differentiable at each point of S0S0 that is not an element of any of the SkSk's.
Then, for any z∈S0z∈S0 that is not an element of any of the SkSk's, we have

(19)Let r>0r>0 be such that B¯r(z)B¯r(z) is disjoint from all the SkSk's.
By part (b) of Exercise 3, let T1,...,TmT1,...,Tm be a partition
of SS such that Tk=SkTk=Sk for 1≤k≤n,1≤k≤n, and Tn+1=B¯r(z).Tn+1=B¯r(z).
By (Reference), we know that

(21)Also, since f(ζ)/(ζ-z)f(ζ)/(ζ-z) is differentiable at each point of the interior of the
sets TkTk for k>n+1,k>n+1, we have from Theorem 2 that for all k>n+1k>n+1

(23)which completes the proof.
Suppose SS is a piecewise smooth geometric set whose boundary
has finite length, and let c1,...,cnc1,...,cn be points in S0.S0.
Suppose ff is a complex-valued function that is continuous at every point of SS except
the CkCk's and differentiable at every point of S0S0 except the ckck's.
Let r1,...,rnr1,...,rn be positive numbers such that the disks {B¯Rk(ck)}{B¯Rk(ck)} are pairwise disjoint and all contained in S0.S0.
- Prove that
∫CSf(ζ)dζ,=∑k=1n∫Ckf(ζ)dζ∫CSf(ζ)dζ,=∑k=1n∫Ckf(ζ)dζ
(24)
where CkCk denotes the boundary of the disk B¯rk(ck).B¯rk(ck). - For any z∈S0z∈S0 that is not in any of the closed disks
B¯rk(ck),B¯rk(ck), show that
∫CSf(ζ)ζ-zdζ=2πif(z)+∑k=1n∫Ckf(ζ)ζ-zdζ.∫CSf(ζ)ζ-zdζ=2πif(z)+∑k=1n∫Ckf(ζ)ζ-zdζ.
(25) - (c) Specialize part (b) to the case where S=B¯r(c),S=B¯r(c), and ff is analytic at each point of Br(c)Br(c) except at the central point c.c.
For each z≠cz≠c in Br(c),Br(c), and any 0<δ<|z-c|,0<δ<|z-c|, derive the formula
f(z)=12πi∫Crf(ζ)ζ-zdζ-12πi∫Cδf(ζ)ζ-zdζ.f(z)=12πi∫Crf(ζ)ζ-zdζ-12πi∫Cδf(ζ)ζ-zdζ.
