- T he right half-plane given by Re(z) > 0 is mapped onto the region in the
right half-plane satisfying u^2 - v^2 > 0 and lies to the right of u^2 - v^2 = 0.
This is the region between the Enes u = v and u = -v in t he right half of
the w planfl. A similar analysis can be applied to the case where b = O.

lows by Theorem 2.1 since the real and imaginary parts of the last expression
have limits that imply t he desired conclusion. You should show the details
for this, of course.

- No. To see why, approach 0 along t he real and imaginary axes, respectively.

- The real part is continuous since lim xell = lim xeY = xoeYo. A
-+•o (x,y)~(xo,yo}
similar argument shows the imaginary part is continuous. The function f is
then continuous by Theorem 2.1.
- No. The limit d oes not exist. Show why.
17. Rewrite f as in problem 9, and mimic the argument for part a with an
arbitrary negative real number taking t he role of -1.
- Let €: > 0 be given. Since Jim f (z) = 0, there is some number o such that
z-zo
f (z) E D fr (0) whenever z E D~ (zo). Show t his implies that if z E D6 (O),
then If (z) g (z) -OI =If (z)l lg {z)I < €,so that f (z) g (z) E D, (0).
2la. We have remarked that example (2.16) shows that the function h(z) = z is
continuous for all z. Since f is continuous for all z, we can apply Theorem
(2.4) to the function f o h to conclude that g (z) = f (h (z)) = f (z) is
continuous for all z.
