Schaum's Outline of Complex Variables, 2ed: An Eclectic Collection of Found Verse for Book Lovers Paperback – 16 July 2009

The book is good but the packaging is very bad. They taped the book and I am left with non-removable paste from the cellotape.

Gud, not bad

This was the book that I used for my first complex variables course as an undergraduate, and I still turn back to it for practice.Unlike a complex analysis book, or even more typical complex variables book, the focus is really not on the theory. Learning how to prove theorems is not the point of the book, so each section does give a rundown of what the relevant theorems, state and examples of how to use them before giving a whole bunch of problems to practice on.The professor of that class was extremely focused on problem solving techniques over understanding much beyond how to extend things like line integrals and geometric series to solving problems. When I retook the course for a refresher before beginning my analysis sequencing graduate school, I didn't find myself at much of a loss at all when it came to the theory. Part of the reason is that I had another terrific for professor, but part of the reason is also that I had already learned how to do the problems. It's a good approach, along the same vein as how we teach students calculus before we teach them analysis: having a basic familiarity with how the problems works helps to understand what the theorems actually do, which it easier for me to understand what was going on in the proofs.I would not recommend this book to learn the subject for the first time, necessarily, at least not without lecture notes to assist. However, it's excellent as a refresher and as a tool for studying, not only because it gives you a localized list of important theorems and examples of how they are applied, but because there are just so many problems to do.

Livro antigo com material atual de apoio ao entendimento de Redes Neurais e IA.

Good reference with examples!

Ottimo testo. Una vera guida pratica che guida ad una comprensione molto esaustiva nei problemi più tipici nel campo complesso. Si può corredare con un testo classico a compendio, ad esempio il vecchio Tricomi.In ogni caso un testo validissimo sia per matematici che fisici.

Chimiste qui cherche à se mettre aux fonctions d'une variable complexe de manière (un peu) sérieuse, ce livre (en conjonction avec Complex variables de Fisher) est une véritable mine d'or : exposé qui va droit à l'essentiel et propose un grand nombre d'exercices en tout genre, depuis des démonstrations jusqu'à de simples applications particulières. Particulièrement intéressant, en ce qui me concerne, le calcul des résidus et les applications conformes.Mon seul regret est qu'il ne contient rien sur les transformations (Fourier, Laplace en z) contrairement à celui de Fisher, alors que c'est une application assez directe de toutes ces notions. Mais honnêtement, pour le prix, on ne peut vraiment pas se plaindre. Je le recommande très chaudement !
