identity theorem of holomorphic functions


If the functions f and g are holomorphic in a domain D of the complex plane and the equation

f(z)=g(z) (1)

is true in an infinite subset S of D having an accumulation pointMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath z0 in D, then (1) is true in the whole D.

Remark.  The subset S may be e.g. some neighbourhood of z0 or some arc containing z0.
