1. Let f1 (z) := ∞
P n
P∞ n
n=0 an (z − a) and f2 (z) := n=0 bn (z − a) be two power series with
radius of convergence R > 0. Assume that there exists a sequence (zk ) in B(a, R)
such that i) limk zk = a and ii) f1 (zk ) = f2 (zk ) for all k ∈ N. Show that an = bn for
all n.

2. Let α ∈ C. Show that exp(z) = exp(α) n≥0 (z−α)
P
n! .
3. Does | cos(z)| → ∞ as |z| → ∞? How about the functions | sin(z)| and | exp(z)|?.
(
z sin(1/z) if z ̸= 0,
4. Let f (z) = Is the function f continuous at 0?
0 if z = 0.
6. Show that the map cos : {z ∈ C : 0 < Re (z) < π} → C \ {(−∞, −1] ∪ [1, ∞)} is a
bijection.
7. Show that the function sin maps the set {x + iy : − π/2 < x < π/2, y > 0} on-
to the upper half plane {z ∈ C : Im(z) > 0}. Show also that sin maps the line
ℓc := {x + ic : x ∈ R} in to an ellipse.
9. Let z ∈ C∗ . Show that there is a continuous choice of argument on the open ball
B(z, |z|).
13. What is the relation between the two definitions z 7→ z n for n ∈ Z and z ∈ C?
