§4.15(ii) Complex Arguments: Conformal Maps

Notes:: This conformal map was produced at NIST.

Figure 4.15.7 illustrates the conformal mapping of the strip $-\tfrac{1}{2}\pi<\realpart{z}<\tfrac{1}{2}\pi$ onto the whole $w$ -plane cut along the real axis from $-\infty$ to −1 and 1 to $\infty$ , where $w=\mathop{\sin\/}\nolimits z$ and $z=\mathop{\mathrm{arcsin}\/}\nolimits w$ (principal value). Corresponding points share the same letters, with bars signifying complex conjugates. Lines parallel to the real axis in the $z$ -plane map onto ellipses in the $w$ -plane with foci at $w=\pm 1$ , and lines parallel to the imaginary axis in the $z$ -plane map onto rectangular hyperbolas confocal with the ellipses. In the labeling of corresponding points $r$ is a real parameter that can lie anywhere in the interval $(0,\infty)$ .

The corresponding surfaces for $\mathop{\cos\/}\nolimits\!\left(x+iy\right)$ , $\mathop{\cot\/}\nolimits\!\left(x+iy\right)$ , and $\mathop{\sec\/}\nolimits\!\left(x+iy\right)$ are similar. In consequence of the identities

they can be obtained by translating the surfaces shown in Figures 4.15.8, 4.15.10, 4.15.12 by $-\tfrac{1}{2}\pi$ parallel to the $x$ -axis, and adjusting the phase coloring in the case of Figure 4.15.10.

The corresponding surfaces for $\mathop{\mathrm{arccos}\/}\nolimits\!\left(x+iy\right)$ , $\mathop{\mathrm{arccot}\/}\nolimits\!\left(x+iy\right)$ , $\mathop{\mathrm{arcsec}\/}\nolimits\!\left(x+iy\right)$ can be visualized from Figures 4.15.9, 4.15.11, 4.15.13 with the aid of equations (4.23.16)–(4.23.18).
