Question

An analytic function of a complex variable z = x+iy (i = √-1) is defined as f(z)= x2 − y2+i ψ ( x,y) where ψ(x, y) is a real function. The value of the imaginary part of f(z) at z = (1 + i) is ___________ (round off to 2 decimal places).

Show Answer

Answer :

Correct answer is : 2

Given, f(z) = x2 – y2 + i ψ (x, y)

ϕ = x 2 y 2

∵ f(z) is analytic function

d ψ = ϕ y d x + ϕ x d y

ϕ y = 2 y , ϕ x = 2 x

d ψ = 2 y d x + 2 x d y

d ψ = 2 d ( x y )

ψ = 2 xy

Given, z = 1 + i

Comparing it with z = x + iy, we get :

∴ x = 1, y = 1

( ψ ) ( 1 , 1 ) = 2 × 1 × 1 = 2

ψ = 2 when z = 1 + i
