Is $ln|z|$ harmonic in the punctured disk [closed]












-1












$begingroup$


1.
how can i show that $ln|z|$ is harmonic in punctured disk ?




  1. also $ln|z|$ has no harmonic conjugate in $Bbb Csetminus{0 }$ but has in $Bbb Csetminus[0, infty)$.

          The second part of (2) should be clear, since $Bbb Csetminus[0,infty)$ is simply connected. Hint for the first part:





          Lemma 1 If $f$ is holomorphic in an open set $V$ then $int_gamma f'(z),dz=0$ for any smooth closed curve $gamma$ in $V$.



          Lemma 2. If $f=u+iv$ is holomorphic in some open set, where $u(z)=ln|z|$, then $f'(z)=1/z$.





          Hint for Lemma 2: The Cauchy-Riemann equations show that $$f=frac12(u_x-iu_y).$$(You can simplfy the calculation of $u_x$ and $u_y$ by writing $u(z)=frac12ln(x^2+y^2)$.)

          1. $z mapsto ln |z|$ is locally the real part of a determination of the complex logarithm, so it is locally harmonic, therefore harmonic on the whole punctured disc.
