   CH 5 PROPERTIES OF ENTIRE FUNCTION 
5.1 The Cauchy Integral Formula and Taylor Expansion for Entire Functions 
We now show that if   f  is entire and if 
g ( z ) {
f ( z ) f ( a )
z a
   , if z a
f
 ( a )                , if z a
. 
then the I nt egr al T heor em ( .  ) and C losed C ur eve T heor em ( .  ) ap p ly to g as w ell 
 as to f . (Note that since f   is entire, g  is continuous; however, it is not obvious that g   is entire). We begin by 
showing that the Rectangle Theorem applies to g.

 If   f    is entire and if g(z) = 8

  then    g ( z ) dz  ,  
Wh ere   is t he b ound ary of a rectan g le R. 
Proof : Since, f  is entire implies g is continuous on R 
i.e.  g   must be boundary on R 
i. e. ?       s. that | g ( z ) |      ? z   R 
Case 1: if  a   ex t( R) 
?  g  is analytic within and on R.  
i.e.    g ( z ) dz         by rectangle thm 
case 2    I f  a b ound a r y ( R) i. e . a     
then, we subdivide R into six sub-rectangle as shown below(sand note pg 1)

 But ,  g ( z ) dz .                     g ( z ) dz /

FAQs on Properties Of Entire Function - Topic-wise Tests & Solved Examples for Mathematics

1. What is an entire function in mathematics?
An entire function in mathematics is a complex-valued function that is defined and holomorphic on the entire complex plane. This means that the function is differentiable at every point in the complex plane.
2. What are the properties of entire functions?
Some properties of entire functions include: - An entire function is infinitely differentiable at every point in the complex plane. - Entire functions are holomorphic on the entire complex plane, which means they are analytic and have a power series representation. - Entire functions are bounded on compact subsets of the complex plane. - Entire functions have no poles or essential singularities. - The zeros of an entire function can only be isolated points or accumulate at infinity.
3. Can an entire function have an essential singularity?
No, an entire function cannot have an essential singularity. An essential singularity is a type of singularity that cannot be removed by any analytic function. Since an entire function is defined and holomorphic on the entire complex plane, it cannot have any singularities, including essential singularities.
4. Are all polynomials entire functions?
Yes, all polynomials are entire functions. A polynomial is a function of the form f(z) = a_n z^n + a_{n-1} z^{n-1} + ... + a_1 z + a_0, where n is a non-negative integer and a_0, a_1, ..., a_n are complex constants. Polynomials are holomorphic on the entire complex plane, making them entire functions.
5. Are entire functions limited to the complex plane?
Yes, entire functions are defined and holomorphic on the complex plane. The complex plane consists of all complex numbers, which can be represented as a combination of a real part and an imaginary part. The behavior and properties of entire functions are specifically studied within the context of the complex plane.
