Complex variables and applications

This text serves as an introductory course in the theory and application of functions of a complex variable. The text is designed to develop the theory that is prominent in applications of the subject. Readers will find a special emphasis given to the application of residues and conformal mappings. Complex Variables And Applications Provides A One-term Introduction To The Theory And Application Of Functions Of A Complex Variable. Its Primary Objective Is To Develop Those Parts Of The Theory That Are Prominent In The Applications Of The Subject. Numerous Applications To The Physical Sciences And Engineering Are Provided Throughout, Including Those Suitable For Reference And Self-study.--jacket.
