    My professor is not good at getting any of this information across, he's incredibly intelligent, but is very bad at teaching. Your video taught me more in thirty minutes than i learned in multiple lectures. Thank you for the work you put out, it's really made a huge difference in my understanding of complex analysis!!!!

    Damn-I had done this topic in my college and there-we were explained a bit and given the formula. But your video literally made me fall in love with the Beauty of Mathematics. I genuinely feel that the professors that bring life to the Subject should be the only ones allowed to teach-else, you kill the LOVE FOR THE SUBJECT and eventually students end up hating the subject(where in reality, they hated to just mug the things up and see it all superficially).
    Thanks for the video Steve :)

    At 26:00. I think there is a mistake here. What for sure is correct is : integral of 1/z dz = 2*pi*i on a closed contour around z=0. However, integral of Log(z) dz on a circle arond z=0 where it makes sense (with complex numbers with phase in ]-pi,pi[, excluding the values -pi and pi because Log is not defined on negative real numbers) = - 2*pi*i. With a negative sign.

    The word "branches" in this context feels very strange to me. When I hear "branches," I imagine a tree-like structure, where there are junctions that have multiple choice of "direction" to go in, whereas the branches as illustrated here appear to be segments of a continuous spiral.

  • @fabdelap2971

    Sir. The log you are using is the log base e and is usually written as Ln. In France we call it the "natural logarithm". So it is certainly not restricted to the complex numbers.

    • @samuelahibo339
      @samuelahibo339 9 місяців тому

      Yes but I think what he means is that Ln is used more with real numbers and Log with complex numbers,
      I remember my "Lycée" teacher saying that "log" with lower case l, is the logarithm that we know with any base (or 10), and "Log"
      Upper case L is usually use to mean base e or "logarithme népérien"

    We know that |z| can be found by Pythagoras' theorem and is uniquely defined. However, Log(z) has a constant real component log(R), i.e. log(|z|), whereas the imaginary component jumps in steps of 2pi. What is then |Log(z)|? It looks as tough it varies according to the phase of Log(z) therefore it has an infinite number of values. Where is the contradiction?

    If f is a function defined from set E to set F which is f: E -> F , we know by definition that each x in E has at most one picture in F. How come you call a function an object that associates one value from E to an infinite values in F??? You should restrict to the principal to call the complex log a function. May be you can define an infinite sequence of functions fn indexed by integer n. Per Bourbaki consistency is key in mathematics not in physics.

    There is no such thing as a "multi-valued function". "In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y". EXACTLY ONE. The example you gave about +/- in the square root, are the solutions to the corresponding equation. And by the way, the symbol for square root is ONLY for the positive result.
