Excerpt from Theory of Functions of a Complex Variable
In the first chapter, I have introduced the algebra of complex num bers as an algebra of number-pairs without giving a general theory of number systems of two (or more) units; I have rather assumed with out discussion the hypotheses characteristic of the theory of ordinary complex numbers. The second chapter contains a detailed geometrical theory of the elementary rational functions of a complex variable and the conformal representations determined by them. The transition from the plane to the sphere by stereographic projection is also considered; it is used at various places in the following chapters. The chapter closes with a discussion of the symmetric invariants of four points as a function of their double ratio; this takes the place of an example (in itself unimportant) of a rational function of a more general character.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This seminal book from the 19th century introduces beginners to the theory of functions, a foundational concept in modern mathematics. Derived from trigonometry, it profoundly impacted geometry and the study of complex numbers. The author provides a detailed look at rational functions and conformal representations determined by them. He adeptly guides the reader through proofs of fundamental theorems and discusses transformations of the plane into itself. The ideas and techniques laid out in this book helped pave the way for further exploration in the field of complex analysis.
