Overview
The second edition of this comprehensive text offers students a challenging and enjoyable study of complex variables. The coverage provides a balance between mathematical theory and applied topics. The author explains fundamental concepts and techniques, and then introduces students to complex variable theory through conceptual development of analysis that enables them to develop a thorough understanding of the topics discussed. Geometric interpretation of the results, wherever necessary, has been inducted for making analysis more accessible. A knowledge of elementary real analysis is assumed. Beginning with the revision of the algebra of complex variables, the book moves on to deal with analytic functions, elementary functions, complex integration, sequences, series and infinite products, series expansions, singularities and residues. The application-oriented chapters on sums and integrals, conformal mappings, and Laplace transform provide a practical-use perspective. Filled numerical examples and exercises designed to test the student's comprehension of the topics covered, this text is ideal for a course in complex variables for students in the science and engineering disciplines.
