and
f 0 (z0 ) = e−iθ0 (ur (r0 , θ0 ) + ivr (r0 , θ0 )).
ur = ux cos(θ) + uy sin(θ)

and
uθ = −ux r sin(θ) + uy r cos(θ).
Similarly,
vr = vx cos(θ) + vy sin(θ)
and
vθ = −vx r sin(θ) + vy r cos(θ).
Now f is differentiable at z0 , and so satisfies the Cauchy-Riemann equations
at z0 . That is,
Hence
vr (r0 , θ0 ) = −uy (r0 , θ0 ) cos(θ) + ux (r0 , θ0 ) sin(θ)
and
vθ (r0 , θ0 ) = uy (r0 , θ0 )r sin(θ) + ux (r0 , θ0 )r cos(θ).
It follows that
then f is differentiable at z0 .
Proof. The proof is left as a homework exercise.

Hence, in the notation of the above theorems,

v(r, θ) = − sin(2θ).

It follows that

Thus
rur (r, θ) = vθ (r, θ) and uθ (r, θ) = −rvr (r, θ),
and so f is differentiable at all z 6= 0. Moreover,
