Complex Analysis (L6) (G5261)

15 credits, Level 6

Spring teaching

This module will explore the extension of mathematical analysis from the real numbers to the larger field of complex numbers, with an appeal to planar geometry for some intuition. The module will focus on complex differentiation and path integrals, including the deep theorem of Cauchy and its consequences such as the fundamental theorem of algebra, analytic continuation and the residue theorem.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
