Need Recommendations for Books on Complex Analysis and Electrical Networks?

In summary, the conversation is about recommendations for books on complex analysis, electrical networks and switches, and physics. The person is looking for a book on complex analysis that covers topics such as analytical functions, Cauchyscher integration, Taylor- und Laurentexpansions, and Fourier series and transformations. They are also looking for a book on electrical networks and switches, with topics including sinusodal AC, periodic non-sinus AC, and Laplace transformations. They are also open to suggestions for a book on physics, specifically on mechanics and Maxwell's equations. The book "Complex Variables" by Fisher and "Ahlorfs" are recommended for complex analysis.

Hey, I am looking for a good book on complex analyis (complex calculus, "complexe anlysis" in german). Any recommendations? I am a first year Electrical engineering student at the ETH Zürich. It should cover the following, and have a reasonalbe amount of examples:

Analytical Funktions, Cauchyscher Integration, Taylor- und Laurentexpansions, Singularity, analytischer Funktionen, Residuenkalkül (no idea what it's called in english).
Fourierseries und Fourier-Transformations, diskrete und fast Fourier-Transformations, Laplace-Transformations.


I am also looking for one on Electrical networks and switches, this is what its called in german anyhow. Following topics:

Sinusodal AC, Periodic non-sinus AC, Switches (on/off switches) in RLC networks, Laplace transformations


Thanks a bunch for any recommendations

no one have any suggestions, also looking for something for physics (1 and multi dimensional mechanics, resonance, maxwell equations)

:D

Thank you! ill check it out

EDIT: Just sent loan request to my library, now to find a book for electrical engieering and for physics

I'm guessing what you want is applied complex analysis, which is commonly called complex variables here. A good book is Complex Variables by Fisher, a dover book for $10.

What what call complex analysis is usually a very theoretical course that rigorously studies the functions of analytic functions. Books for that are like the one by Ahlorfs.
 

FAQ: Need Recommendations for Books on Complex Analysis and Electrical Networks?

What is complex analysis?

Complex analysis is a branch of mathematics that deals with the study of complex numbers and their functions. It is an important tool in many areas of science and engineering, including physics, engineering, and economics.

How is complex analysis used in real-world applications?

Complex analysis is used in a variety of real-world applications, including engineering, physics, signal processing, and image processing. It is also used in the study of fluid dynamics, electromagnetism, and quantum mechanics.

What are some good books on complex analysis?

Some highly recommended books on complex analysis include "Complex Analysis" by Joseph Bak and Donald J. Newman, "Complex Variables and Applications" by James Ward Brown and Ruel V. Churchill, and "Fundamentals of Complex Analysis" by E.B. Saff and A.D. Snider.

What is the purpose of studying electrical networks and switches?

The study of electrical networks and switches is important for understanding how electricity flows through circuits and how to design and analyze electrical systems. It is also essential for engineers and scientists working in fields such as telecommunications, power systems, and computer hardware.

Can you recommend a good book on electrical networks and switches?

Some highly recommended books on electrical networks and switches include "Electric Circuits" by James W. Nilsson and Susan Riedel, "Fundamentals of Electric Circuits" by Charles Alexander and Matthew Sadiku, and "Network Analysis, Architecture, and Design" by James D. McCabe.
