To justify a complex-valued function is continuous

A complex-valued function is defined on the unit disk as $f(z) = \int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{1-tz} dt$. How can we show that the function is continuous ? My Approach: As the integrand is analytic in $z$, it ...

Prove that if $f(z)$ is continuous on closed region then it is bounded in that region

While reading text on complex analysis, I found a following question: Question: Prove that if $f(z)$ is continuous on closed region then it is bounded in that region. My attempt: Isn't the boundedness ...

Identity theorem for (real) analytic functions on lower dimensional subsets

For simplicity, we will deal with $\mathbb{R}^2$. Let's assume we have an one-dimensional submanifold $M_1 \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and two analytic function $F,G: M_1 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. If I know $...

A function satisfying a condition is a polynomial of degree $\leq 1$

Let $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a continuous function s.t $f(x)=\frac12(f(x+r)+f(x-r))$ for every $r>0, x\in\mathbb{R}$. Prove that $f$ is a polynomial of degree $\leq 1$. This is a question ...

Show that if $M ≥ 0$ and $|f(z)| ≤ M$ for all $z ∈ ∂V$ , then $|f(z)| ≤ M$ for all $z ∈ V $

Suppose that V is a bounded open subset of the plane and $f ∈ C(\overline V) ∩ H(V)$ i.e. $f$ is continuous on $\overline V$ and $f\restriction_V$ is holomorphic on $V.$ Show that if $M ≥ 0$ and $|f(z)...

Limit of integral with gamma function

By some relations of Whittaker functions and a comment I read in a paper I came up with the following identity $$\lim_{s\to 0+} \frac{1}{\Gamma(s)} \int_{0}^\infty e^{-vt} t^{s-1} (1+t)^{s+1}dt =1,$$ ...

Let $f(z) = \textrm{Log}(\textrm{Log} (z + 2i))$. Where is $f$ continuous?

Let $f(z) = \textrm{Log}(\textrm{Log} (z + 2i))$. Where is $f$ continuous? I have been having issues on determining the continuity of this double logarithmic complex function. Do I approach this ...

For complex function : $f'(z)$ exists $\implies$ $f$ continous in $z$?

Consider a complex function $f(z): A\subset\mathbb C \to\mathbb C$. If the derivative of $f$ exists then $f$ must necessarily be a continuous function? Is the following true? $f'(z)$ exists $\...

What does a function look like if its derivative is not continuous? [closed]

In a previous question about the Cauchy-Riemann condition in complex analysis, I learned that a function can have derivatives in a region, but its derivatives might not be continuous. My question is: ...

Let an analytic function $f$ have domain-set the punctured disk $\Delta^*(z_0,r)$. Assume the existence of a complex number $w_0$ and a sequence

Let an analytic function $f$ have domain-set the punctured disk $\Delta^*(z_0,r)$. Assume the existence of a complex number $w_0$ and a sequence $\{r_n\}$ of positive real numbers satisfying $r>r_1&...

Continuity of a function with complex variables [closed]

How could I show if or not the following piece-wise defined function is continuous at the point $z=-i$? $$f(z)=\left\{ \begin{matrix} \frac{z^2+2iz-1}{2z^2+iz+1}, & z \neq -i \\ 0, & z=-i \...

Is $f(x)=\frac{|x|^2}{x}$ continuous?

$$f(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{|x|^2}{x}, & \text{if $x \neq 0$} \\ 0, & \text{if $x=0$} \end{cases}$$ Can someone please explain if f is continuous? Assume $x$ is a complex number Hints ...

Continuity of $f(z) = Log z$ , for $z$ complex, non-real $-\ln|z|$, for $z$ real

At what points in the complex plane is this function continuous (If there is any)? Would it be correct to conclude that $f$ is then continuous for all $z$ in the complex plane less the real numbers?...

Determining whether a function is uniformly continuous

Determine whether $(4x-3)/(x-2)$ is uniformly continuous on the open interval $(1,2)$. I'm not sure how to start this as I have only answered these questions with closed intervals?
