Theory of Complex Functions

by R. Remmert

Published 30 April 1990
This text examines function theory, including the residue calculus, and is supported by examples and practice exercises. It also includes ample discussion of the historical evolution of the theory, biographical sketches of important contributors, and citations (original language together with English translation) from their classical works. This book should be suitable for many students making their way into a classical area of mathematics which represents an example of the intimate connection between algebra and analysis. For exam preparation it offers quick access to essential results. Teachers and interested mathematicians in finance, industry and science should also find the book useful.
