This course is to introduce the basic properties of complex functions and analytic functions and to illustrate the important use of these theories to other branches of mathematics and sciences. Topics include: complex numbers; limits, continuity and derivatives, Cauchy-Riemann equations, analytic functions; elementary functions; mapping by elementary functions; Contours integrals, Cauchy-Goursat theorem, Cauchy integral formula, Morera’s theorem, maximum moduli of functions, the fundamental theorem of algebra; Taylor series and Laurent’s series; residues and poles, evaluation of infinite real integrals.
