18.03 LECTURE NOTES, SPRING 2014 - MIT Mathematics

LECTURE NOTES, SPRING 2014. BJORN POONEN. 7. complex numbers complex numbers are expressions of the form x + yi, where x and y are real numbers, and i is a new symbol. Multiplication of complex numbers will eventually be defined so that i2 = 1. (Electrical engineers sometimes write j instead of i, because they want to reserve i for current, but everybody else thinks that's weird.) Just as the set of all real numbers is denoted R, the set of all complex numbers is denoted C. Flashcard question: Is 9 a real number or a complex number? Possible answers: 1. real number 2. complex number 3. both 4. neither Answer: Both, because 9 can be identified with 9 + 0i. Operations on complex numbers. real part Re(x + yi) := x imaginary part Im(x + yi) := y (Note: It is y, not yi, so Im(x + yi) is real). complex conjugate x + yi := x yi (negate the imaginary component).

x+ yi= (rcos ) + (rsin )i= r(cos + isin ): In other words, z= rei : Here rei is called a polar form of the complex number z. One has r= jzj; here rmust be a positive real number (assuming z6= 0). Any possible for z(a possible value for the angle or argument of z) may be called argz,
