Course Objectives

  • To provide an overview of the course using the tools complex variables and complex functions. To motivate how one can use the theory of complex analysis for evaluating many real analysis problems comfortably
  • To introduce analytic function, complex integral, and the calculus using complex functions.
  • To teach different techniques of complex variables for real application problems.
  • Solving theory and its applications to the problems.

Course Outcomes

CO1: Students will gather the knowledge of complex variables, complex functions, and multivalued functions.
CO2: They will learn to evaluate the complex integrals.
CO3: They will understand the Cauchy's theorem in different domains.
CO4: They will learn the singularities and zeros of complex functions and will be able to evaluate their residues.
CO5: They can compute the sum of complex series and real definite integrals. They will have the ability to use techniques from complex analysis and apply them to diverse fields in real-life problems.
