Brahmagupta (598-670) writes Khandakhadyaka
(665) which solves quadratic equations and allows
for the possibility of negative solutions.
Brahmagupta
598 - 670
Brahmagupta also solves quadratic equations of the type
a x2
+ c = y2
and a x2
- c = y2
. For example he solves 8x2
+ 1 = y2
obtaining the solutions (x,y) = (1,3), (6,17), (35,99), (204,577),
(1189,3363), ... For the equation 11x2
+ 1 = y2
Brahmagupta
obtained the solutions (x,y) = (3,10), (161/5,534/5), ... He also
solves 61x2
+ 1 = y2
which is particularly elegant having x =
226153980, y = 1766319049 as its smallest solution.

Abraham bar Hiyya Ha-Nasi ‫הנשיא‬ ‫חייא‬ ‫בר‬ ‫אברהם‬
writes the work Hibbur ha-Meshihah ve-ha-Tishboret
‫והתשבורת‬ ‫המשיחה‬ ‫חבור‬ , translated in 1145 into Latin as Liber
embadorum, which presents the first complete solution to the
quadratic equation.
Abraham bar Hiyya Ha-Nasi (‫הנשיא‬ ‫חייא‬ ‫בר‬ ‫אברהם‬ Abraham son of
[Rabbi] Hiyya "the Prince") (1070 - 1136?) was a Spaish Jewish
Mathematician and astronomer, also known as Savasorda (from the
Arabic ‫الشرطة‬ ‫صاحب‬ Sâhib ash-Shurta "Chief of the Guard"). He
lived in Barcelona.

History of Complex Numbers
Nicolas Chuquet (1445 – 1488)
Chuquet wrote an important text Triparty en la science des nombres.
This is the earliest French algebra book .
The Triparty en la science des nombres (1484) covers arithmetic and
algebra. It was not printed however until 1880 so was of little
influence. The first part deals with arithmetic and includes work on
fractions, progressions, perfect numbers, proportion etc. In this work
negative numbers, used as coefficients, exponents and solutions,
appear for the first time. Zero is used and his rules for arithmetical
operations includes zero and negative numbers. He also uses x0 = 1
for any number x.
The sections on equations cover quadratic equations where he
discusses two solutions.

Girolamo Cardano
1501 - 1576
Nicolo Fontana Tartaglia
1500 - 1557
Solution of cubic equation x3
+ b x2
+c x +d = 0
The first person to solve the cubic equation x3
+b x = c was
Scipione del Ferro (1465 – 1526), but he told the solution only
to few people, including his student Antonio Maria Fior.
Nicolo Fontana Tartaglia, prompted by the rumors, manage
to solve the cubic equation x3
+b x2
= -d and made no secret of
his discovery.
Fior challenged Tartaglia, in 1535, to a public contest, each one
had to solve 30 problems proposed by the other in 40 to 50 days.
Tartaglia managed to solve his problems of type x3
+m x = n in
about two hours, and won the contest.
News of Tartaglia victory reached Girolamo Cardan in Milan,
where he was preparing to publish Practica Arithmeticae (1539).
Cardan invited Tartaglia to visid him and, after much persuasion,
made him to divulge his solution of the cubic equation. Tartaglia
made Cartan promise to keep the secret until Tartaglia had
published it himself.

Nicolo Fontana Tartaglia

Solution of cubic equation x3
+ b x2
+c x +d = 0
After Tartaglia showed Cardan how to solve cubic equations,
Cartan encouraged his student Lodovico Ferrari (1522 – 1565)
to use those result and solve quartic equations x4
+p x2
+q x +r=0.
Since Tartaglia didn’t publish his results and after hearing from
Hannibal Della Nave that Scipione del Ferro first solve cubic
equations, Cardan pubished in 1545 in Ars Magna (The Great Art)
the solutions of the cubic (credit given to Tartaglia) and quartic
equations.
This led to another competition between Tartaglia and
Cardano, for which the latter did not show up but was
represented by his student Lodovico Ferrari.
Ferrari did better than Tartaglia in the competition, and
Tartaglia lost both his prestige and income.

In 1572 Rafael Bombelli published three of the intended five
volumes of “L’Algebra” worked with non-real solutions of the
quadratic equation x2
+b x+c=0 by using and
where and applying addition and multiplication rules.

with what we sed today.

Wessel's fame as a mathematician rests solely on
this paper, which was published in 1799, giving for
the first time a geometrical interpretation of
complex numbers. Today we call this geometric
interpretation the Argand diagram but Wessel's
work came first. It was rediscovered by Argandin
1806 and again by Gauss in 1831. (It is worth
noting that Gauss redid another part of Wessel's
work, for he retriangulated Oldenburg in around
1824.)

In 1751 Euler published his full theory of logarithms and complex
numbers. Euler discovered the Cauchy-Riemann equations in 1777
although d’Alembert had discovered them in 1752 while
investigating hydrodynamics.
Johann Karl Friederich Gauss published the first correct proof
of the fundamental theorem of algebra in his doctoral thesis of
1797, but still claimed that "the true metaphysics of the square
root of -1 is elusive" as late as 1825. By 1831 Gauss overcame
some of his uncertainty about complex numbers and published
his work on the geometric representation of complex numbers as
points in the plane.

Cauchy is considered the founder of complex analysis after

used it to derive a whole host of most interesting series and integral
formulas and was the first to define complex numbers as pairs of

Analytic, Holomorphic, MeromorphicFunctions
Return to Table of Contents
A Meromorphic Function on an open subset D of the complex plane is a
function that is Holomorphic on all D except a set of isolated points, which are
poles for the function. (The terminology comes from the Ancient Greek meros
(μέρος), meaning “part”, as opposed to holos ( λος)ὅ , meaning “whole”.)
The word “Holomorphic" was introduced by two of Cauchy's students, Briot
(1817–1882) and Bouquet (1819–1895), and derives from the Greek λοςὅ
(holos) meaning "entire", and μορφή (morphē) meaning "form" or
"appearance".[2]
Today, the term "holomorphic function" is sometimes preferred to "analytic
function", as the latter is a more general concept. This is also because an
important result in complex analysis is that every holomorphic function is
complex analytic, a fact that does not follow directly from the definitions. The
term "analytic" is however also in wide use.
The Gamma Function is Meromorphic in the
whole complex plane

Foundamental Theorem of Algebra
Every polynomial equation P (z) = a0 + a1z+a2z2
+…+anzn
=0 with degree
n ≥ 1 and an ≠ 0 (ai are complex constants) has at least one root.
From this it follows that P (z) = 0 has exactly n roots, due attention being
paid to multiplicities of roots.
Proof:
If P (z) = 0 has no root, then f (z) = 1 / P (z) is analytic for all z.
Also | f (z) |= 1 / | P (z) | is bounded. Then by Liouville’s Theorem f (z) and
then P (z) are constant. This is a contradiction to the fact that P (z) is a
polynomial in z, therefore P (z) = 0 must have at least one root (zero).
Suppose that z = a is one root of P (z) = 0. Hence P (a) = 0 and

Since an ≠ 0, Q (s) is a polynomial of degree n-1.
Applying the same reasoning to the polynomial Q (s) of degree n-1,
we conclude that it must also have at least one root. This procedure continues
until n = 0, therefore it follows that P (z) has exactly n roots.

If f (z) is analytic inside and on a simple closed curve C and is not identically

a inside C, i.e. | f (a) |=M =max | f (z) |. Since a is inside C we can
find a circle C1, with center at a that is inside C. Since f (z) is not
constant we can find a point b in C1 such that | f (b)|=M – ε< | f (a)|.
Using the continuity of f (z) we can find a circle around b, C2,

Proof:
Since f (z) is analytic inside and on a simple closed curve C and f (z) ≠ 0
inside C it follows that 1/ f (z) is analytic inside and on C. Then according to
Maximum Modulus Theorem 1/| f (z) | assumes its maximum vale on C and

(1815 – 11897)
The most commonly encountered test for Uniform
Convergence is the Weierstrass M Test.
Proof:
Since converges, some number N exists such that for n + 1 ≥ N,
If we can construct a series of numbers , in
which Mi ≥ |ui(x)| for all x in the interval [a,b] and
is convergent, the series ui(x) will be uniformly
convergent in [a,b].

This follows from our definition of convergence. Then, with |ui(x)| ≤ Mi for
all x in the interval a ≤ x ≤ b, ( ) ε<∑

Hence ( ) ( ) ( ) ε<=− ∑

and by definition is uniformly convergent in [a,b]. Since we
specified absolute values in the statement of the Weierstrass M Test, the
series is also Absolutely Convergent. Return to the Table of Content

Uniformly convergent series have three particular useful properties:
1.If the individual terms un(x) are continuous, the series sum
is also continuous.
2. If the individual terms un(x) are continuous, the series may be integrated term by term.
The sum of the integrals is equal to to the integral of the sum, then
3.The derivative of the series sum f (x) equals the sum of the individual term derivatives

Uniformly Convergent Series of Analytic Functions
Suppose that
(i)Each number of a sequence of functions u1(z), u2(z),…,un(z),…
is Analytic inside a Region D,
(ii)The Series
is Uniformly Convergent through Every Region D’ interior to D.
Then the function
is Analytic inside D, and all its Derivatives can be calculated by term-by-term
Differentiation.

arbitrary closed contour inside D, f(z) is Analytic inside D.

Uniformly Convergent Series of Analytic Functions
Remarks on the above Theorem
(i)The contrast between the conditions for term-by-term differentiation of Real Series,
and of Series of Analytic Functions is that
- In the case of Real Series we have to assume that the Differentiated Series is
Uniformly Convergent.
- In the case of Series of Analytic Series the Theorem proved that the Differentiated
Series is Uniformly Convergent.
(ii)If we merely assumed that the given Series is Uniformly Convergent on a certain
Closed Curve C, we could prove as before that f(z) is Analytic at all points inside C.
(iii) Even if we assume that each un(z) is Analytic on the Boundary of the Domain D, and
the Series is Uniformly Convergent on the Boundary, we can not prove that f(z) is
Analytic on the Boundary, or the Differentiated Series Converges on the Boundary.
(iv) The Theorem may be stated as a Theorem on Sequences of Functions:
If fn(z) is Analytic in D for each value of n, and tends to f(z) Uniformly in any
Region interior to D, then f(z) is Analytic inside D, and fn’(z) tends to f’(z) Uniformly in
any Region interior to D.

Theorem: f(z) Analytic and Nonzero → ln|f(z)| Harmonic
If f (z) is analytic for in an Open Set Ω, and has no zeros in Ω,
then ln |f(z)| is Harmonic in Ω.
Proof :
Since f (z) is analytic and has no zeros the logarithm of f(z) is also Analytic
g (z) := ln f (z) is Analytic

Rouché’s Theorem
Eugène Rouché
1832 - 1910
If f (z) and g (z) are analytic inside and on a simple closed curve C
and if |g (z)| < |f (z)| on C, then f (z) + g (z) and f (z) have the same number
of zeros inside C.
Proof:
Let F (z):= g (z)/f (z)
If N1 and N2 are the number of zeros inside C of f (z) + g (z) and f (z) respectively, and
using the fact that those functions are analytic and C, therefore they have no poles
inside C, using the Argument Theorem we have ( )

Jensen’s Formula
Johan Ludwig William Valdemar
Jensen
(1859 – 5 1925)
which is the Mean-Value Property of the Harmonic Function ln |f(z)|.
Suppose that ƒ is an Analytic Function in a region in the
complex plane which contains the closed disk D of radius r
about the origin, a1, a2, ..., an are the zeros of ƒ in the interior
of D repeated according to multiplicity, and ƒ(0) ≠ 0. Jensen's
formula states that
This formula establishes a connection between the Moduli of the
zeros of the function ƒ(z) inside the disk D and the average of
log |f(z)| on the boundary circle |z| = r, and can be seen as a
generalization of the Mean Value Property of Harmonic
Functions. Namely, if f(z) has no zeros in D, then Jensen's
formula reduces to

This is the earliest French algebra book . The Triparty en la science des nombres (1484) covers arithmetic and algebra. It was not printed however until 1880 so was of little influence. The first part deals with arithmetic and includes work on fractions, progressions, perfect numbers, proportion etc. In this work negative numbers, used as coefficients, exponents and solutions, appear for the first time. Zero is used and his rules for arithmetical operations includes zero and negative numbers. He also uses x0 = 1 for any number x. The sections on equations cover quadratic equations where he discusses two solutions.

Nicolo Fontana Tartaglia, prompted by the rumors, manage to solve the cubic equation x3 +b x2 = -d and made no secret of his discovery. Fior challenged Tartaglia, in 1535, to a public contest, each one had to solve 30 problems proposed by the other in 40 to 50 days. Tartaglia managed to solve his problems of type x3 +m x = n in about two hours, and won the contest. News of Tartaglia victory reached Girolamo Cardan in Milan, where he was preparing to publish Practica Arithmeticae (1539). Cardan invited Tartaglia to visid him and, after much persuasion, made him to divulge his solution of the cubic equation. Tartaglia made Cartan promise to keep the secret until Tartaglia had published it himself.

Since Tartaglia didn’t publish his results and after hearing from Hannibal Della Nave that Scipione del Ferro first solve cubic equations, Cardan pubished in 1545 in Ars Magna (The Great Art) the solutions of the cubic (credit given to Tartaglia) and quartic equations. This led to another competition between Tartaglia and Cardano, for which the latter did not show up but was represented by his student Lodovico Ferrari. Ferrari did better than Tartaglia in the competition, and Tartaglia lost both his prestige and income.

Today we call this geometric interpretation the Argand diagram but Wessel's work came first. It was rediscovered by Argandin 1806 and again by Gauss in 1831.

  • 30. 30 SOLO Complex Variables Analytic, Holomorphic, MeromorphicFunctions Return to Table of Contents A Meromorphic Function on an open subset D of the complex plane is a function that is Holomorphic on all D except a set of isolated points, which are poles for the function. (The terminology comes from the Ancient Greek meros (μέρος), meaning “part”, as opposed to holos ( λος)ὅ , meaning “whole”.) The word “Holomorphic" was introduced by two of Cauchy's students, Briot (1817–1882) and Bouquet (1819–1895), and derives from the Greek λοςὅ (holos) meaning "entire", and μορφή (morphē) meaning "form" or "appearance".[2] Today, the term "holomorphic function" is sometimes preferred to "analytic function", as the latter is a more general concept. This is also because an important result in complex analysis is that every holomorphic function is complex analytic, a fact that does not follow directly from the definitions. The term "analytic" is however also in wide use. The Gamma Function is Meromorphic in the whole complex plane Poles

From this it follows that P (z) = 0 has exactly n roots, due attention being paid to multiplicities of roots. Proof: If P (z) = 0 has no root, then f (z) = 1 / P (z) is analytic for all z. Also | f (z) |= 1 / | P (z) | is bounded. Then by Liouville’s Theorem f (z) and then P (z) are constant. This is a contradiction to the fact that P (z) is a polynomial in z, therefore P (z) = 0 must have at least one root (zero). Suppose that z = a is one root of P (z) = 0.

  • 86. SOLO Complex Variables Uniformly Convergent Series of Analytic Functions Remarks on the above Theorem (i)The contrast between the conditions for term-by-term differentiation of Real Series, and of Series of Analytic Functions is that - In the case of Real Series we have to assume that the Differentiated Series is Uniformly Convergent. - In the case of Series of Analytic Series the Theorem proved that the Differentiated Series is Uniformly Convergent. (ii)If we merely assumed that the given Series is Uniformly Convergent on a certain Closed Curve C, we could prove as before that f(z) is Analytic at all points inside C. (iii) Even if we assume that each un(z) is Analytic on the Boundary of the Domain D, and the Series is Uniformly Convergent on the Boundary, we can not prove that f(z) is Analytic on the Boundary, or the Differentiated Series Converges on the Boundary. (iv) The Theorem may be stated as a Theorem on Sequences of Functions: If fn(z) is Analytic in D for each value of n, and tends to f(z) Uniformly in any Region interior to D, then f(z) is Analytic inside D, and fn’(z) tends to f’(z) Uniformly in any Region interior to D.
