DESCRIPTION:
An understanding of functions of a complex variable, together with the importance of their applications, form an essential part of the study of mathematics. Complex Variables and their Applications assumes as little background knowledge of the reader as is practically possible, a sound knowledge of calculus and basic real analysis being the only essential pre-requisites.With an emphasis on clear and careful explanation, the book covers all the essential topics covered in a first course on Complex Variables, such as differentiation, integration and applications, Laurent series, residue theory and applications, and elementary conformal mappings. Complex Variables and their Applications is an ideal textbook and resource for second and final year students of mathematics, engineering and physics.. Applications of complex variable theory to linear ordinary differential equations and integral transforms are also included. The re
excellent textbook for a first course on Complex Analysis I taught a course on Complex Analysis (intended to be a first course on this subject) in Spring 2015.I used this text as a supplement to my main textbook, which was Applied Complex Variables by Dettman.After the first three or four weeks, I switched to almost entirely using Osborne's book instead of Dettman's.The former is a very thorough text. Dr. Osborne tries to motivate most of new developments, rather thansimply introducing them. He provides very detailed illustrations, as well as
