Chapter 1.1, Problem 13E

Other logical connectives between two propositions P and Q are possible.

13. The word or is used in two different ways in English. We have presentedthe truth table for ?, the inclusive or, whose meaning is “one or the other orboth.” The exclusive or, meaning “one or the other but not both” and denoted Chapter 1.1, Problem 13E, Other logical connectives between two propositions P and Q are possible. 13. The word or is used in has its uses in English, as in “She will marry Heckle or she will marryJeckle.” The “inclusive or” is much more useful in mathematics and is theaccepted meaning unless there is a statement to the contrary.
(a) Make a truth table for the “exclusive or” connective V.
(b) Show that A B is equivalent to ( A B ) ( A B ) .

5. (a) State the Residue Theorem. Your answer should include all the conditions required for the theorem to hold. (4 marks) (b) Let y be the square contour with vertices at -3, -3i, 3 and 3i, described in the anti-clockwise direction. Evaluate に dz. You must check all of the conditions of any results that you use. (5 marks) (c) Evaluate L You must check all of the conditions of any results that you use. ཙ x sin(Tx) x²+2x+5 da. (11 marks)
3. (a) Lety: [a, b] C be a contour. Let L(y) denote the length of y. Give a formula for L(y). (1 mark) (b) Let UCC be open. Let f: U→C be continuous. Let y: [a,b] → U be a contour. Suppose there exists a finite real number M such that |f(z)| < M for all z in the image of y. Prove that < ||, f(z)dz| ≤ ML(y). (3 marks) (c) State and prove Liouville's theorem. You may use Cauchy's integral formula without proof. (d) Let R0. Let w € C. Let (10 marks) U = { z Є C : | z − w| < R} . Let f UC be a holomorphic function such that 0 < |ƒ(w)| < |f(z)| for all z Є U. Show, using the local maximum modulus principle, that f is constant. (6 marks)
3. (a) Let A be an algebra. Define the notion of an A-module M. When is a module M a simple module? (b) State and prove Schur's Lemma for simple modules. (c) Let AM(K) and M = K" the natural A-module. (i) Show that M is a simple K-module. (ii) Prove that if ƒ € Endд(M) then ƒ can be written as f(m) = am, where a is a matrix in the centre of M, (K). [Recall that the centre, Z(M,(K)) == {a Mn(K) | ab M,,(K)}.] = ba for all bЄ (iii) Explain briefly why this means End₁(M) K, assuming that Z(M,,(K))~ K as K-algebras. Is this consistent with Schur's lemma?
