Description for 2021/22

This module extends Level 5 Complex Variable considering further applications of contour integration and the Residue Theorem. The module then provides an introduction to conformal mappings, together with some of their applications, in particular, their application in determining harmonic functions in two-dimensional regions. The module also covers certain analytical aspects of complex functions.

Aims
The aim of this module is, firstly, to study further applications of contour integration and the Residue Theorem and, secondly, to provide an introduction to conformal mappings and their applications.

Intended Learning Outcomes

evaluate a range of complex variable techniques, then select and apply these techniques to solve problems in complex variables: 1,2,3
prove theorems in complex variables and apply these theorems to a range of situations: 1,2,3
appraise problems involving complex variables, make judgements on appropriate approaches to these problems, select and then apply appropriate concepts and theory toż solve these problems: 1,2,3
