Question 1(b)

Analytic function from real part

1Question

If \(f(z)=u+iv\) is an analytic function of \(z\), and \(u-v=\frac{\cos x+\sin x-e^{-y}}{2\cos x-e^y-e^{-y}}\), then find \(f(z)\) subject to the condition \(f\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)=0\).

3Concept Related to the Question

Since \(u-v\) is the real part of \((1+i)f(z)\), first construct an analytic function having this real part.

4Detailed Solution

Let

\[g(z)=(1+i)f(z).\]

Then

\[\operatorname{Re}g=u-v.\]

Now put

\[H(z)=\frac{1}{e^{-iz}-1}.\]

Writing \(z=x+iy\), direct simplification gives

\[\operatorname{Re}\{(-1+i)H(z)\}=\frac{\cos x+\sin x-e^{-y}}{2\cos x-e^y-e^{-y}}.\]

Therefore we may take

\[g(z)=\frac{-1+i}{e^{-iz}-1}+iC,\]

where \(C\) is a real constant. Hence

\[f(z)=\frac{g(z)}{1+i}=\frac{i}{e^{-iz}-1}+C_1,\]

where \(C_1\) is a complex constant. Using \(f(\pi/2)=0\),

\[0=\frac{i}{e^{-i\pi/2}-1}+C_1=\frac{i}{-i-1}+C_1.\]

Thus

\[C_1=\frac{1+i}{2}.\]

5Final Answer

The required analytic function is \(f(z)=\frac{i}{e^{-iz}-1}+\frac{1+i}{2}\).

Question 7(c)

Point vortices and streamlines

1Question

Two point vortices each of strength \(k\) are situated at \((\pm a,0)\) and a point vortex of strength \(-\frac{k}{2}\) is situated at the origin. Show that the fluid motion is stationary and also find the equations of streamlines. If the streamlines, which pass through the stagnation points, meet the \(x\)-axis at \((\pm b,0)\), then show that \(3\sqrt3(b^2-a^2)^2=16a^3b\).
