2.10 The complex exponential function Consider the real exponential function f (x) = ex (that is, f (x) = exp x). We now extend the definition of this function to define a function f(z) = ez whose domain and codomain are We expect complex powers

2.8 Polar form You have seen that the complex number x + iy corresponds to the point (x, y) in the complex plane. This correspondence enables us to give an alternative description of complex numbers, using so-called polar form. This form is particularly useful when we discuss properties related to multiplication and division of complex numbers.

2.1 What is a complex number? We will now discuss complex numbers and their properties. We will show how they can be represented as points in the plane and state the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra: that any polynomial equation with complex coefficients has a solution which is a complex number. We will also define the function exp of a complex variable. Earlier we mentioned several sets of numbers, including

4.4 Historical note on the Euler characteristic A little history is instructive here, because it shows how difficult Theorem 9 really is. By 1900 the classification of compact surfaces was well understood, although proofs of the major theorems relied more on intuition than would be acceptable today. Attention switched to objects called ‘3-manifolds’, topological s
3.2.1 Remarks By ‘contains’, we mean that we can find part of the surface that is homeomorphic to a Möbius band. The edge of the Möbius band does not need to correspond to an edge at the surface, so that a surface without boundary can be non-orientable (as we shall shortly see). When seeking Möbius bands in a surface, it can be helpful to look at all possible closed curves on the surface and thicken these into bands. Remember, fro
2.4.1 Remarks This theorem applies to all surfaces and not just to surfaces in space. This theorem tells us that the boundary number is a topological invariant for surfaces, i.e. a property that is invariant under homeomorphisms. It follows from the theorem that two surfaces with different boundary numbers cannot be homeomorphic. It does not follow that two surfaces with the same boundary number are homeomorphic –

Tonkatsu Sliders
Chef Jet Tila from Charleston Gastropub demonstrates how to make sliders filled with tonkatsu, tonkastu sauce, shredded cabbage and sriracha mayonnaise. To make the tonkatsu, he dredges a pork shoulder steak with kara-age and panko, then fries the pork until golden brown. He stuffs bao, or Chinese buns, with the tonkatsu and adds tonkastu sauce balanced with creamy and spicy sriracha mayonnaise. This video series was created by the Culinary Institute of America as an industry service to Kikkoman
Hungarian scientists discover remains of first freshwater 'mosasaur', an ancient lizard
Dec. 27 - Hungarian scientists discover ancient fossils of a new giant lizard species that lived in freshwater. A reconstruction of the 'mosasaur' has gone on display in the Hungarian Natural History Museum as the palaeontologists published their findings. Joel Flynn reports.
