After laying groundwork on complex numbers and the calculus and geometric mapping properties of functions of a complex variable, the author uses power series as a unifying theme to define and study the many rich and occasionally surprising properties of analytic functions, including the Cauchy theory and residue theorem. The book concludes with a treatment of harmonic functions and an epilogue on the Riemann mapping theorem.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThoroughly classroom tested at multiple universities, \u003ci\u003eComplex Analysis: A Modern First Course in Function Theory \u003c\/i\u003efeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePlentiful exercises, both computational and theoretical, of varying levels of difficulty, including several that could be used for student projects\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNumerous figures to illustrate geometric concepts and constructions used in proofs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRemarks at the conclusion of each section that place the main concepts in context, compare and contrast results with the calculus of real functions, and provide historical notes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAppendices on the basics of sets and functions and a handful of useful results from advanced calculus\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e Appropriate for students majoring in pure or applied mathematics as well as physics or engineering, \u003ci\u003eComplex Analysis: A Modern First Course in Function Theory \u003c\/i\u003eis an ideal textbook for a one-semester course in complex analysis for those with a strong foundation in multivariable calculus.
