(a) Let ΩC\Omega \subset \mathbb{C} be open, aΩa \in \Omega and suppose that Dρ(a)={zC:zaρ}ΩD_{\rho}(a)=\{z \in \mathbb{C}:|z-a| \leqslant \rho\} \subset \Omega. Let f:ΩCf: \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{C} be analytic.

State the Cauchy integral formula expressing f(a)f(a) as a contour integral over C=Dρ(a)C=\partial D_{\rho}(a). Give, without proof, a similar expression for f(a)f^{\prime}(a).

If additionally Ω=C\Omega=\mathbb{C} and ff is bounded, deduce that ff must be constant.

(b) If g=u+iv:CCg=u+i v: \mathbb{C} \rightarrow \mathbb{C} is analytic where u,vu, v are real, and if u2(z)u(z)v2(z)u^{2}(z)-u(z) \geqslant v^{2}(z) for all zCz \in \mathbb{C}, show that gg is constant.
