  Complex number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The system of complex numbers, in contrast to that of the real numbers, has the primary advantage that it is algebraically closed, that is, all non-constant polynomials with complex coefficients have roots in the complex numbers.
In mathematics, the term "complex" when used as an adjective means that the field of complex numbers is the underlying number field considered, for example complex matrix, complex polynomial and complex Lie algebra.
The conjugate of the complex number z corresponds to the transformation which rotates through the same angle as z but in the opposite direction, and scales in the same manner as z; this can be described by the transpose of the matrix corresponding to z.

complex partial derivative +------------------------------------------------------------ Define the complex partial derivative of a complex function f(z)=f(x+iy) in the complex plane is defined as fracpartial fpartial z = frac12 (fracpartialpartial x-ifracpartialpartial y) f.
If D is a regular domain in the complex plane and f is a continous function on the boundary of D, then there exists a unique harmonic function f on D such that h(z)=f(z) for all boundary points of D. Dirichlet problem +------------------------------------------------------------ Let K be a compact subset of the complex plane.
thin set +------------------------------------------------------------ A subset S of the complex plane is called a thin set if for all w in the closure of S-w and all subharmonic functions f, limsup_z to w f(z) = f(w).

 Mobius Transformations and The Night Sky
The complex number p in the extended complex plane is identified with the point p' on the unit sphere that is struck by a line from the "North Pole" through p.
None of the points move on the complex plane, so none move on the Riemann sphere under stereographic projection, and nothing changes in the sky's appearance.
To show explicitly how the action of fp(z) on the complex plane varies with p, consider the relatively simple linear fractional transformation f(z) with fixed points at 0 and 1 on the real axis, which implies A = 1 and B = 0.

Complex analysis is an old branch of mathematics which is the forerunner of many new ones including homotopy theory and manifolds.
Integration in the complex plane C, is conceived as an analogue of integration on the real line, R, but many important properties of analytic functions are not derivable without it, or are very difficult to establish by other methods.
Normal family studies, extend from their natural occurrence in iteration theory to investigations on the converse of the famous theorems of Schottky and Miranda for a family of analytic functions in a unit disc.

 Linear Fractional Transformations
The only strength gained by allowing h to be an LFT instead of a linear function is in the "singular" cases when the coefficients of the linear coupling function L are not well defined, such as when c, C, (a+d), or (A+D) are equal to 0.
This is determined by mapping the two fixed points to the points 0 and 1 on the complex plane.
This shows that the action of the LFT on the complex plane is entirely dependent on the magnitude and phase angle of the constant K, which, as we saw previously, is given by
