  1. Exercise XCV, problem 1, p. 411

    Determine the values of $\zeta$ for which $\cos\zeta$ and $\sin\zeta$ are (i) real (ii) purely imaginary. [For example $\cos\zeta$ is real when $\eta = 0$ or when $\xi$ is any multiple of $\pi$.]

    **of $\cos\zeta = \alpha + i\beta$, where $\beta \neq 0$.** We may suppose $\beta > 0$, since the results when $\beta < 0$ may be deduced by merely changing the sign of $i$. In this case = ,0pt minus 3pt= -, (1) and (/)^2 + (/)^2 = 1. If we put $\cosh^{2} \eta = x$ we find that x^2 - (1 + ^2 + ^2)x + ^2 = 0 or $x = (A_{1} ± A_{2})^{2}$, where A_1 = 12(+ 1)^2 + ^2,0pt minus 3ptA_2 = 12(- 1)^2 + ^2. Suppose $\alpha > 0$. Then $A_{1} > A_{2} > 0$ and $\cosh\eta = A_{1} ± A_{2}$. Also = /() = A_1 A_2, and since $\cosh\eta > \cos\xi$ we must take = A_1 + A_2,0pt minus 3pt= A_1 - A_2. The general solutions of these equations are = 2k± M,0pt minus 3pt= ±L + L^2 - 1, (2) where $L = A_{1} + A_{2}$, $M = A_{1} - A_{2}$, and $\arccos M$ lies between $0$ and $\frac{1}{2}\pi$. The values of $\eta$ and $\xi$ thus found above include, however, the solutions of the equations = ,0pt minus 3pt= , (3) as well as those of the equations (1), since we have only used the second of the latter equations after squaring it. To distinguish the two sets of solutions we observe that the sign of $\sin\xi$ is the same as the ambiguous sign in the first of the equations (2), and the sign of $\sinh\eta$ is the same as the ambiguous sign in the second. Since $\beta > 0$, these two signs must be different. Hence the general solution required is = 2k± [M - iL + L^2 - 1].

    **of the equation $\cos\zeta = a$, where $a$ is real.** Putting $\zeta = \xi + i\eta$, and equating real and imaginary parts, we obtain = a,0pt minus 3pt= 0. Hence either $\eta = 0$ or $\xi$ is a multiple of $\pi$. If (i) $\eta = 0$ then $\cos\xi = a$, which is impossible unless $-1 \leq a \leq 1$. This hypothesis leads to the solution = 2k± a, where $\arccos a$ lies between $0$ and $\frac{1}{2}\pi$. If (ii) $\xi = m\pi$ then $\cosh\eta = (-1)^{m}a$, so that either $a \geq 1$ and $m$ is even, or $a \leq -1$ and $m$ is odd. If $a = ± 1$ then $\eta = 0$, and we are led back to our first case. If $|a| > 1$ then $\cosh\eta = |a|$, and we are led to the solutions alignat*4 &=& 2k &± i &&a + a^2 - 10pt minus 3pt&&(a > 1), &=&(2k + 1) &± i-&&a + a^2 - 10pt minus 3pt&&(a < -1). alignat* For example, the general solution of $\cos\zeta = -\frac{5}{3}$ is $\zeta = (2k + 1)\pi ± i\log 3$.

    **.** In Ch.III (xxi. 21 *et seq.*, and [misc:III]Misc. Exs. 22 *et seq.*) we considered some simple examples of the geometrical relations between figures in the planes of two variables $z$, $Z$ connected by a relation $z = f(Z)$. We shall now consider some cases in which the relation involves logarithmic, exponential, or circular functions. Suppose firstly that z = (Z/a),0pt minus 3ptZ = (a/) z where $a$ is positive. To one value of $Z$ corresponds one of $z$, but to one of $z$ infinitely many of $Z$. If $x$, $y$, $r$, $\theta$ are the coordinates of $z$ and $X$, $Y$, $R$, $\Theta$ those of $Z$, we have the relations alignat*2 x &= e^X/a (Y/a), & y &= e^X/a (Y/a), X &= (a/) r, & Y &= (a/) + 2ka, alignat* where $k$ is any integer. If we suppose that $-\pi < \theta \leq \pi$, and that $\Log z$ has its principal value $\log z$, then $k = 0$, and $Z$ is confined to a strip of its plane parallel to the axis $OX$ and extending to a distance $a$ from it on each side, one point [pg]427 of this strip corresponding to one of the whole $z$-plane, and conversely. By taking a value of $\Log z$ other than the principal value we obtain a similar relation between the $z$-plane and another strip of breadth $2a$ in the $Z$-plane. To the lines in the $Z$-plane for which $X$ and $Y$ are constant correspond the circles and radii vectores in the $z$-plane for which $r$ and $\theta$ are constant. To one of the latter lines corresponds the whole of a parallel to $OX$, but to a circle for which $r$ is constant corresponds only a part, of length $2a$, of a parallel to $OY$. To make $Z$ describe the whole of the latter line we must make $z$ move continually round and round the circle.

    **Stereographic and Mercator’s Projections.** The points of a unit sphere whose centre is the origin are projected from the south pole (whose coordinates are $0$, $0$, $-1$) on to the tangent plane at the north pole. The coordinates of a point on the sphere are $\xi$, $\eta$, $\zeta$, and Cartesian axes $OX$, $OY$ are taken on the tangent plane, parallel to the axes of $\xi$ and $\eta$. Show that the coordinates of the projection of the point are x = 2/(1 + ),0pt minus 3pty = 2/(1 + ), and that $x + iy = 2\tan \frac{1}{2}\theta \Cis\phi$, where $\phi$ is the longitude (measured from the plane $\eta = 0$) and $\theta$ the north polar distance of the point on the sphere. [pg]428 This projection gives a map of the sphere on the tangent plane, generally known as the *Stereographic Projection*. If now we introduce a new complex variable Z = X + iY = -i12z = -i12(x + iy) so that $X = \phi$, $Y = \log \cot \frac{1}{2}\theta$, we obtain another map in the plane of $Z$, usually called *Mercator’s Projection*. In this map parallels of latitude and longitude are represented by straight lines parallel to the axes of $X$ and $Y$ respectively.

    **transformation $z = Z^{i}$.** If $z = Z^{i}$, where the imaginary power has its principal value, we have (r + i) = z = (iZ) = (iR - ), so that $\log r = -\Theta$, $\theta = \log R + 2k\pi$, where $k$ is an integer. As all values of $k$ give the same point $z$, we shall suppose that $k = 0$, so that r = -,0pt minus 3pt= R. (1) The whole plane of $Z$ is covered when $R$ varies through all positive values and $\Theta$ from $-\pi$ to $\pi$: then $r$ has the range $\exp(-\pi)$ to $\exp\pi$ and $\theta$ ranges through all real values. Thus the $Z$-plane corresponds to the ring bounded by the circles $r = \exp(-\pi)$, $r = \exp\pi$; but this ring is covered infinitely often. If however $\theta$ is allowed to vary only between $-\pi$ and $\pi$, so that the ring is covered only once, then $R$ can vary only from $\exp(-\pi)$ to $\exp \pi$, so that the variation of $Z$ is restricted to a ring similar in all respects to that within which $z$ varies. Each ring, moreover, must be regarded as having a barrier along the negative real axis which $z$ (or $Z$) must not cross, as its amplitude must not transgress the limits $-\pi$ and $\pi$. [pg]429 We thus obtain a correspondence between two rings, given by the pair of equations z = Z^i,0pt minus 3ptZ = z^-i, where each power has its principal value. To circles whose centre is the origin in one plane correspond straight lines through the origin in the other.

    Determine the number and approximate positions of the roots of the equation $\tan z = az$, where $a$ is real. [We know already (% [examples:xvii]Ex. xvii%. 4) that the equation has infinitely many real roots. Now let $z = x + iy$, and equate real and imaginary parts. We obtain 2x/(2x + 2y) = ax,0pt minus 3pt2y/(2x + 2y) = ay, so that, unless $x$ or $y$ is zero, we have (2x)/2x = (2y)/2y. [pg]426 This is impossible, the left-hand side being numerically less, and the right-hand side numerically greater than unity. Thus $x = 0$ or $y = 0$. If $y = 0$ we come back to the real roots of the equation. If $x = 0$ then $\tanh y = ay$. It is easy to see that this equation has no real root other than zero if $a \leq 0$ or $a \geq 1$, and two such roots if $0 < a < 1$. Thus there are two purely imaginary roots if $0 < a < 1$; otherwise all the roots are real.]

Exercise XCIII

  1. Exercise XCIII, problem 1, p. 401

    We supposed above that $-\pi < \theta < \pi$, and so excluded the case in which $z$ is *real and negative*. In this case the straight line from $1$ to $z$ passes through $0$, and is therefore not admissible as a path of integration. Both $\pi$ and $-\pi$ are values of $\am z$, and $\theta$ is equal to one or other of them: also $r = -z$. The values of $\Log z$ are still the values of $\log |z| + i\am z$, viz. (-z) + (2k + 1)i, where $k$ is an integer. The values $\log (-z) + \pi i$ and $\log (-z) - \pi i$ correspond to paths from $1$ to $z$ lying respectively entirely above and entirely below the real axis. Either of them may be taken as the principal value of $\Log z$, as convenience dictates. We shall choose the value $\log (-z) + \pi$ i corresponding to the first path.

    **functional equation satisfied by $\Log z$.** The function $\Log z$ satisfies the equation z_1 z_2 = z_1 + z_2, (1) in the sense that *every* value of either side of this equation is *one* of the values of the other side. This follows at once by putting z_1 = r_1(_1 + i_1),0pt minus 3ptz_2 = r_2(_2 + i_2), and applying the formula of p.401. It is however not true that z_1z_2 = z_1 + z_2 (2) in all circumstances. If, *e.g.*, z_1 = z_2 = 12(-1 + i3) = 23+ i 23, then $\log z_{1} = \log z_{2} = \frac{2}{3}\pi i$, and $\log z_{1} + \log z_{2} = \frac{4}{3}\pi i$, which is one of the values of $\Log z_{1}z_{2}$, but not the principal value. In fact $\log z_{1}z_{2} = -\frac{2}{3}\pi i$. An equation such as (1), in which every value of either side is a value of the other, we shall call a *complete* equation, or an equation which is *completely true*.

    **to any base.** We may define $\zeta = \Log_{a} z$ in two different ways. We may say (i) that $\zeta = \Log_{a} z$ if the *principal* value of $a^{\zeta}$ is equal to $z$; or we may say (ii) that $\zeta = \Log_{a} z$ if *any* value of $a^{\zeta}$ is equal to $z$. Thus if $a = e$ then $\zeta = \Log_{e} z$, according to the first definition, if the principal value of $e^{\zeta}$ is equal to $z$, or if $\exp \zeta = z$; and so $\Log_{e} z$ is identical with $\Log z$. But, according to the second definition, $\zeta = \Log_{e} z$ if e^ = (e) = z,0pt minus 3pte = z, or $\zeta = (\Log z)/(\Log e)$, any values of the logarithms being taken. Thus = _e z = |z| + (z + 2m)i1 + 2ni, so that $\zeta$ is a doubly infinitely many-valued function of $z$. And generally, according to this definition, $\Log_{a} z = (\Log z)/(\Log a)$.
