Meaning in context

A complex-valued function on an open subset of C is holomorphic when its complex difference quotient has a finite limit at every point, with the increment approaching zero through all complex directions.

复平面开集上的复值函数,若每一点的复增量商沿任意方向趋于零时都有同一有限极限,则为全纯函数。

Example

For f(z)=z3f(z)=z^3, the quotient is 3z2+3zh+h2→3z23z^2+3zh+h^2\to3z^2.

Usage and distinctions

Real differentiability of a map R^2 to R^2 is weaker; complex differentiability requires a complex-linear differential.
