Cauchy-Riemann equations (complex coordinates)
Let be a continuously differentiable function in the real sense, using instead of, identifying with where and we also write (the complex conjugate). Then we have the following partial derivatives
:
Sometimes these are written as and respectively.
The classical Cauchy-Riemann equations are equivalent
to
This can be seen if we write for real valued and andthen the differentials become
In several complex dimensions, for a function which maps where we generalize simply by
Then the Cauchy-Riemann equations are given by
That is, is holomorphic if and only if it satisfies the above equations.
