  1. An analytic function of a complex variable z = x + iy is expressed as f(z) = u(x, y)+ iv(x, y), where i = √-1. If u(x, y) = x2 - y2, then expression for v(x, y) in terms of x, y and a general constant c would be
    1. xy + c
    2. x2 + y2
      + c
      2

    3. 2xy + c
    4. (x - y)2
      + c
      2

Correct Option: C

Given f(z) = μx(x, y) + iv (x, y) is analytic and x = x2 - y2
We know that if f(z) = μ + iv is analytic then C-R equations will be satisfied.

i.e.
∂μ
=
∂v
and
∂μ
= -
∂v
∂x∂y∂y∂x

∴ v = 2xy + c is correct answer
