Course Description

This is a second course in complex analysis. Topics to be covered include the Poisson summation formula, Weierstrass infinite products, Gamma and zeta functions, the prime number theorem, the Riemann mapping theorem, elliptic functions, and time permitting the sum of two squares theorem. We assume as prerequisite a solid understanding of properties of analytic functions of one complex variable, at the level of Math 2230.

Honesty in Academic Work

The Chinese University of Hong Kong places very high importance on honesty in academic work submitted by students, and adopts a policy of zero tolerance on cheating and plagiarism. Any related offence will lead to disciplinary action including termination of studies at the University. Although cases of cheating or plagiarism are rare at the University, everyone should make himself / herself familiar with the content of the following website:

http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/policy/academichonesty/

and thereby help avoid any practice that would not be acceptable.
