Define Open Sets in the Complex Plane and illustrate the definition with Mathematica

Показать описание

Main Topics: definition of an open disk ("circular neighborhood"), interior point, and open set. Example: the open right half plane is an open set. Visualize why it is with Mathematica.

(0:00) Review the definition of an open disk of radius "rho" centered at z0 and the set-builder notation used to define it.
(1:48) It's also called a circular neighborhood (I spelled it wrong in the video) of radius "rho" centered at z0.
(2:25) Define "interior point" of a set S.
(3:51) Discuss the visual interpretation of an interior point.
(4:24) Define a set S to be open if every point of S is an interior point of S.
(5:26) Use RegionPlot to illustrate for the (open) "right half plane".
(7:08) Show how to find a radius that proves that 2+i, 1+i, 0.5+i, and 0.1+i are interior point of the right half plane.
(8:58) Use Manipulate and Locator on Mma to make an animation that shows how the radius of the disk needs to decrease as we approach the boundary (in order to prove points are interior points).
(10:22) If we included the imaginary axis to create the closed right half plane, it would no longer be an open set because the points on that boundary would not be interior points of the set.

you have divided the complex arithmetic section into 26 videos, which i am sure was more work on your side, but a lot easier and concentrated for me to watch and understand, piece by piece. i hope you do continue to make further videos on complex analysis and treat the topics in similar fashion. thank you so much once again.

hi, i have watched all your videos on Complex Arithmetic. it was very helpful. your teaching method is brilliant. i wanted to request if you will please continue and make a series on complex integration, analytic functions, zeroes-singularities-poles, and residue theory, using Mathematica...i really hope you will, your videos on this topic are a gem. in fact they are the only if i am correct.
peace

Brilliant presentation! Are the Mathematica notebooks available for download? Thanks.

Is there somewhere I can download the presentation in the video?

Should really type more gently... The sound gets in the way and is annoying.
