Question

A harmonic function is analytic if it satisfies the Laplace equation.

Ifu(x,y) = 2x2 — 2y2 + 4xy is a harmonic function, then its conjugate harmonic function v(x,y) is

Options :

  1. 4xy — 2x2 + 2y2 + constant

  2. 4y2 — 4xy + constant

  3. 2x2 — 2y2 + xy + constant

  4. —4xy + 2y2 — 2x2 + constant

Show Answer

Answer :

4xy — 2x2 + 2y2 + constant

Solution :

Let f(z) = u + iv is an analytic function where u is harmonic then v is called its harmonic conjugate. Here u = 2x2 – 2y2 + 4xy i.e. real part is given, so by using Milne-Thomson method.
