[parent] theorems on complex function series (Theorem)

Theorem 1. If the complex functions $f_1,\,f_2,\,f_3,\,\ldots$ are continuous on the path $\gamma$ and the series

$\displaystyle f_1(z)+f_2(z)+f_3(z)+\cdots$ (1)

converges uniformly on $\gamma$ to the sum function $F$ , then one has $$\int_{\gamma}F(z)\,dz = \int_{\gamma}f_1(z)\,dz+\int_{\gamma}f_2(z)\,dz+\int_{\gamma}f_3(z)\,dz+\cdots$$

Theorem 2. If the functions $f_1,\,f_2,\,f_3,\,\ldots$ are holomorphic in a domain $A$ and the series (1) converges uniformly in every closed disc of $A$ , then also the sum function $F$ of (1) is holomorphic in $A$ and

$\displaystyle \frac{d^nF(z)}{dz^n} = F^{(n)}(z) = f_1^{(n)}(z)+f_2^{(n)}(z)+f_3^{(n)}(z)+\cdots$ (2)

is true for every positive integer $n$ in all points of $A$ . The series (2) converges uniformly in every compact subdomain of $A$ .

Theorem 3. If $f(z)$ is holomorphic in a domain $A$ and $z_0$ is a point of $A$ , then one can expand $f(z)$ to a power series (the so-called Taylor series) $$f(z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n(z-z_0)^n \quad \mathrm{where} \quad a_n = \frac{f^{(n)}(z_0)}{n!}\quad(n = 0,\,1,\,2,\,\ldots).$$ This expansion is valid at least in the greatest disk $|z-z_0| < r\, (\leqq \infty)$ which contains points of $A$ only.
