Hi Again:
I don't know if this is obvious or not: An analytic complex function
f(z)=u(x,y)+iv(x,y) , can be made into an analytic function
f: R^2 -->R^2, since each of u(x,y) and v(x,y) is itself a real-analytic
function, i.e., we can use a standard argument by component function.
How about in the opposite direction, i.e., we have a real-analytic
function f(x), analytic in an interval (a,b). When can we extend
f(x) into a complex-analytic function.?. I suspect , thinking of power series,
that we can use the radius of convergence to construct an analytic function, i.e.,
if f(x) is analytic in (a-r,a+r), then f(x) can be extended to a complex-analytic
function in |z-a|<r .
Is this correct.?
