Complex conjugate

In mathematics, the complex conjugate of a complex number is the number with an equal real part and an imaginary part equal in magnitude but opposite in sign. That is, if and are real numbers then the complex conjugate of is The complex conjugate of is often denoted as or . In polar form, if and are real numbers then the conjugate of is This can be shown using Euler's formula. The product of a complex number and its conjugate is a real number: (or in polar coordinates).

Split-complex number

In algebra, a split complex number (or hyperbolic number, also perplex number, double number) is based on a hyperbolic unit j satisfying A split-complex number has two real number components x and y, and is written The conjugate of z is Since the product of a number z with its conjugate is an isotropic quadratic form. The collection D of all split complex numbers for x,y \in \R forms an algebra over the field of real numbers. Two split-complex numbers w and z have a product wz that satisfies This composition of N over the algebra product makes (D, +, ×, *) a composition algebra.

Complex number

In mathematics, a complex number is an element of a number system that extends the real numbers with a specific element denoted i, called the imaginary unit and satisfying the equation ; every complex number can be expressed in the form , where a and b are real numbers. Because no real number satisfies the above equation, i was called an imaginary number by René Descartes. For the complex number , a is called the , and b is called the . The set of complex numbers is denoted by either of the symbols or C.

Complex logarithm

In mathematics, a complex logarithm is a generalization of the natural logarithm to nonzero complex numbers. The term refers to one of the following, which are strongly related: A complex logarithm of a nonzero complex number , defined to be any complex number for which . Such a number is denoted by . If is given in polar form as , where and are real numbers with , then is one logarithm of , and all the complex logarithms of are exactly the numbers of the form for integers .

Leonhard Euler

Leonhard Euler (ˈɔɪlər , ˈleːɔnhaʁt ˈɔʏlɐ; 15 April 1707 18 September 1783) was a Swiss mathematician, physicist, astronomer, geographer, logician and engineer who founded the studies of graph theory and topology and made pioneering and influential discoveries in many other branches of mathematics such as analytic number theory, complex analysis, and infinitesimal calculus. He introduced much of modern mathematical terminology and notation, including the notion of a mathematical function.
