Pseudoanalytic function
In mathematics, pseudoanalytic functions are functions introduced by that generalize analytic functions and satisfy a weakened form of the Cauchy–Riemann equations.
Definitions
Let and let be a real-valued function defined in a bounded domain. If and and are Hölder continuous, then is admissible in. Further, given a Riemann surface, if is admissible for some neighborhood at each point of, is admissible on.The complex-valued function is pseudoanalytic with respect to an admissible at the point if all partial derivatives of and exist and satisfy the following conditions:
If is pseudoanalytic at every point in some domain, then it is pseudoanalytic in that domain.
Similarities to analytic functions
- If is not the constant, then the zeroes of are all isolated.
- Therefore, any analytic continuation of is unique.
Examples
- Complex constants are pseudoanalytic.
- Any linear combination with real coefficients of pseudoanalytic functions is pseudoanalytic.
