Complex Analysis

Complex Analysis is a branch of mathematics that studies functions of complex numbers and their properties. It explores concepts such as analytic functions, contour integrals, and conformal mappings, revealing the deep interplay between geometry and analysis. Central to this field are theorems like Cauchy's integral theorem and the residue theorem, which facilitate the evaluation of integrals and provide insights into the behavior of complex functions. Applications of complex analysis extend to various disciplines, including engineering, physics, and number theory, making it a vital area of mathematical study.
