Lecture Notes

You will find in the tables below the lecture notes for each section of each chapter. The lecture notes are based on the book Complex Analysis by Donald Marshall.

Chapter 1

In the first chapter, we will introduce the basic notations we will use throughout the semester. The new material is on the Riemann Sphere and the Extended Complex Plane (section 1.3).

Chapter 3

In the third chapter, we will study the behavior of functions as they approach the boundary. In particular, we will prove the maximum principle for analytic functions, Liouville's Theorem, and Schwarz's Lemma.

Chapter 4

In the fourth chapter, we will prove Runge's Theorem. This Theorem says that if a function is analytic on a compact set, then it can be uniformly approximated by a rational function.

Chapter 5

In the fifth chapter, we will explore in more depth the winding number. We will also introduce Laurent series and different types of singularities. The important results we will cover are Riemann's Removable Singularity Theorem, Painlevé's Removability Theorem, the Argument Principle and Rouché's Theorem.
