In complex analysis, a branch of mathematics, Morera's theorem, named after Giacinto Morera, gives an important criterion for proving that a function is holomorphic.
Morera's theorem states that a continuous, complex-valued function f defined on an open set D in the complex plane that satisfies
for every closed piecewise C1 curve in D must be holomorphic on D.
The assumption of Morera's theorem is equivalent to f locally having an antiderivative on D.
The converse of the theorem is not true in general. A holomorphic function need not possess an antiderivative on its domain, unless one imposes additional assumptions. The converse does hold e.g. if the domain is simply connected; this is Cauchy's integral theorem, stating that the line integral of a holomorphic function along a closed curve is zero.
The standard counterexample is the function f(z) = 1/z, which is holomorphic on C − {0}. On any simply connected neighborhood U in C − {0}, 1/z has an antiderivative defined by L(z) = ln(r) + iθ, where z = reiθ. Because of the ambiguity of θ up to the addition of any integer multiple of 2pi, any continuous choice of θ on U will suffice to define an antiderivative of 1/z on U. (It is the fact that θ cannot be defined continuously on a simple closed curve containing the origin in its interior that is the root of why 1/z has no antiderivative on its entire domain C − {0}.) And because the derivative of an additive constant is 0, any constant may be added to the antiderivative and the result will still be an antiderivative of 1/z.
In a certain sense, the 1/z counterexample is universal: For every analytic function that has no antiderivative on its domain, the reason for this is that 1/z itself does not have an antiderivative on C − {0}.
There is a relatively elementary proof of the theorem. One constructs an anti-derivative for f explicitly.
Without loss of generality, it can be assumed that D is connected. Fix a point z0 in D, and for any , let be a piecewise C1 curve such that and .

This course is an introduction to the theory of Riemann surfaces. Riemann surfaces naturally appear is mathematics in many different ways: as a result of analytic continuation, as quotients of complex
The monstrous moonshine is an unexpected connection between the Monster group and modular functions. In the course we will explain the statement of the conjecture and study the main ideas and concepts
In complex analysis, a complex-valued function of a complex variable : is said to be holomorphic at a point if it is differentiable at every point within some open disk centered at , and is said to be analytic at if in some open disk centered at it can be expanded as a convergent power series (this implies that the radius of convergence is positive). One of the most important theorems of complex analysis is that holomorphic functions are analytic and vice versa.
En analyse complexe, le résidu est un nombre complexe qui décrit le comportement de l'intégrale curviligne d'une fonction holomorphe aux alentours d'une singularité. Les résidus se calculent assez facilement et, une fois connus, permettent de calculer des intégrales curvilignes plus compliquées grâce au théorème des résidus. Le terme résidu vient de Cauchy dans ses Exercices de mathématiques publié en 1826. Soit un ouvert de , un ensemble dans D de points isolés et une fonction holomorphe.
En géométrie différentielle, l'intégrale curviligne est une intégrale où la fonction à intégrer est évaluée sur une courbe Γ. Il y a deux types d'intégrales curvilignes, selon que la fonction est à valeurs réelles ou à valeurs dans les formes linéaires. Le second type (qui peut se reformuler en termes de circulation d'un champ de vecteurs) a comme cas particulier les intégrales que l'on considère en analyse complexe. Dans cet article, Γ est un arc orienté dans R, rectifiable c'est-à-dire paramétré par une fonction continue à variation bornée t ↦ γ(t), avec t ∈ [a, b].
We establish exponential convergence of the hp-version of isogeometric analysis for second order elliptic problems in one spacial dimension. Specifically, we construct, for functions which are piecewise analytic with a finite number of algebraic singularit ...
