For what constant value (or values) of a is the function u = x + ax3 the real part of an analytic function? Find the imaginary part of this analytic function. Express this analytic function as a function of z.

Answer»

uxx = 6ax , uyy = 0 . 

Thus ∇2u = 0 only if a = 0, in which case 

u = x. 

The conjugate of x, denoted as v, satisfies 

vy = ux = 1 and vx = −uy = 0. 

We get 

v = y + c, and u + iv = z + ic, 

where c is a constant.
