SOURCES and REFERENCES for Further Reading:
This video is a quick-and-dirty introduction to Riemann Surfaces. But as with any quick introduction, there are many details that I gloss over. To learn these details rigorously, I've listed a few resources down below.
(a) Complex Analysis
To learn complex analysis, I really like the book "Visual Complex Functions: An Introduction with Phase Portraits" by Elias Wegert. It explains the whole subject using domain coloring front and center.
Another one of my favorite books is "A Friendly Approach To Complex Analysis" by Amol Sasane and Sara Maad Sasane. I think it motivates all the concepts really well and is very thoroughly explained.
(b) Riemann Surfaces and Algebraic Curves
A beginner-friendly resource to learn this is "A Guide to Plane Algebraic Curves" by Keith Kendig. It starts off elementary with lots of pictures and visual intuition. Later on in the book, it talks about Riemann surfaces.
A more advanced graduate book is "Algebraic Curves and Riemann Surfaces" by Rick Miranda.

The reason exp(1/Z) contains an essential singularity is, if you expand the function as a Taylor series, you will get infinitely many powers of (1/Z). In essence, the singularity can't be removed by multiplying by Z. Therefore, it is "essential"

Another fact about essential singularities: A function with an essential singularity takes all complex values (or all complex values except one value) infinitely many times in every open neighborhood of the essential singularity (Picard's Great Theorem)

Or more directly, as z goes to 0 from the positive real direction, 1/exp(1/z) goes to 0, but as z goes to 0 from the negative real direction, 1/exp(1/z) goes to infinity. So 1/exp(1/z) can't be continuously extended to 0 even in the real line, let alone the complex plane.

@@EebstertheGreat that's true of functions with poles like 1/z^n at 0 too. The point is that the singularity exp(1/z) has at 0 is not that simple, in the sense that it can't be removed by multiplying it with some z^n - hence the name essential.

@@hybmnzz2658 I don't think I'd say Falting's theorem says anything much about interesting group laws, but maybe I see why you ask this question. Here are some simpler points about group laws you can say. The degree-genus formula tells you that for degree >4 the genus of the curve in P^2 is atleast 3 (which in particular is > 1). If the curve is additionally defined over the rationals, the K-points C(K) are finite. So if C were a group scheme defined over Q, then C(K) would have to be a finite subgroup. There is no obvious reason this gives a contradiction though, but actually theres a much easier reason why any 1-dimensional group scheme over Q is actually genus 1: The group scheme structure allows you to give a trivialisation of the tangent bundle (as the translation action of C on itself is transitive on Q-points). The only smooth connected curve over Q with trivial tangent bundle is genus 1, since the degree of the tangent bundle is 2g - 2.

Respect. The printed cut outs are beautiful.
Something that gets lost in Riemann's immense contribution to humanity was the shockingly forward thinking idea he introduced that the microscopic spacetime may be nothing like the 3 + 1 we know so well, over a hundred years before Dirac postulated the same thing which is basically where theoretical physics is now.

Thanks for the video, very well explained! On this topic, I found the book by Serge Lang on elliptic functions very helpful, but also Gunning's lectures on Riemann surfaces for every thing beyond genus 1
This is an extremely good motivation for the elliptic curve equation(s) that I see everwhere, and a very nice explanation why complex tori are elliptic curves (and not just the other way around)! I'm a bit baffled by your way to write a zeta though...

I think it's because the curve on the right is actually in C2. Like how in the previous example t from the interval which is in R gets mapped to the circle in R2 by associating the points (x,y) on the circle with t on the interval via the trig functions ie x= cos t and y = sin t. ... In the same way, each complex pair (X, Y) on the "curve" described on the right is associated with a complex number z in the square via the functions X = P(z) and Y = P'(z).
Great video!

This kind of thing falls more into the realms of real analysis in multiple dimensions. Functions that aren't analytic aren't complex-differentiable. You may be able to define such functions using complex numbers, but the algebraic structure of the complex numbers isn't really relevant for understanding these functions. It's more useful to rewrite these functions from R^2 to R^2 and study them using tools from real analysis (which includes standard multivariable calculus).

@@chobes1827 and how it is done? do you know how this kind of analysis is named?... At least for me is not obvious how you will make happen in R^2 all the oscillating effects that rises from Euler identity e^(it)=cos(t)+i sin(t) without it, my example f(z) it is just a 2D smooth bump function, but I think it is not his complex behaviour since in their exponent the z^2 term will left some terms dependent in the imaginary unit "i", leading to oscillating behaviour

@whatitmeans You basically just write that g((x,y)) = (Re(f(x+iy), Im(f(x+iy)) and then study g as a map from R^2 to R^2. Points in the complex plane are still just pairs of two real numbers, and you can always identify them as such. If you study some complex analysis, you'll learn how this works because you need to think about complex functions this way in order to derive and use the Cauchy-Riemann equations. All of the oscillating behavior ends up being expressed with rotation matrices, and it's all completely doable despite the expressions being a bit messier. For example, if r is |z| and theta is the angle formed between z and the positive real axis, then e^iz becomes e^r * rotation by theta as a map from R^2 to R^2.
Kind of hope you could maintain the handwriting style. You in fact inspired me to do all-handwriting demos.
I wonder how Riemann’s existence theorem relates to the circle method
Thank you!
My first time watching produced a question that, isn’t then the conclusion made in the end (analytical object can be bridged to algebraic perspective) requires the step glossed over in “projective complex space” CP2 thing, that dealt with how 0 is mapped? I might watch the second time but maybe someone was impressed with the same question as me in the comment section.
can you please do some concepts in representation theory , lie groups and that sort of math , great channel ❤❤

5:33 Why do we need to explicitly evoke f(1/z)? Will lim z->inf f(z) not work? Also, to check if a function is meromorphic at inf, is there no other way than to see this other than checking singularity of f(1/z)?

The notion of taking a limit as a value approaches infinity isn't well defined in the complex plane the same way it is for the real line. On the real line, there's only really one way we can make a variable approach infinity (by making the variable bigger and bigger). In the complex plane, variables can grow infinitely along an uncountably infinite amount of paths that move in different directions. We need to make a statement about what happens as z grows infinitely large in any of the possible directions. We're interested in what happens as |z| approaches infinity along any possible path. Working with lim |z| -> infinity is technically sufficient to formulate the definition of a function being continuous, holomorphic, or meromorphic at infinity, but it's tricky to reason about a variable growing larger across the entire plane. We use the fact that as |z| approaches infinity, |1/z| approaches 0 to make the behavior we're interested in easier to reason about. By looking at the behavior of f(1/z) when |z| is small, we can study the behavior of f(z) as |z| approaches infinity by reasoning about the behavior of a function on a small disk, which is much more manageable than thinking about f's behavior as z grows larger in any of the possible directions.

excelent video
Why not just define f(infinity) to be the limit as z approaches the point at infinity of f(z) where we can take |z| approaching infinity in the real case and consider all possible paths of z that do this. Why would these two limits not be the same when they exist?

I understand if one could not understand something we do not study or spend too much time on it. But is it bad?
Ah yes, another glimpse of a mathematical world that is far too complex for my little mind.
wow!
Oooh, are we going to do Ricci flow at some point? Or only Langlands stuff with fancy graphs like those meromorphics?
Great job, but can you do it even simpler? like without using the jargon at all.
So my complex analysis exam is algebraic geometry in a trenchcoat?
Is the final statement of this video false? Shouldn’t it be “SOME OF Complex Analysis SOME OF Algebraic Geometry”? Or do I need to watch the video again?

Just checking but like. The arrow in that last image doesn’t go both ways, does it? Sure, every Riemann surface is an algebraic surface and that’s cool, but like. There are three-dimensional algebraic surfaces, but there are no three-dimensional Riemann surfaces, right? So there are some varieties that are not Riemann-able.

So every compact Riemann surface is an algebraic curve but is the other way true that every algebraic curve can be realized as a compact Riemann surface? If not these fields aren’t the same, just that these surfaces can be viewed equivalently in both but not all algebraic curves can be studied using complex analysis and not everything in complex analysis is a compact Riemann surface that can be studied in algebraic geometry. Therefore, I’m not sure I understand what the video is trying to conclude about them being the same and I’m just trying to understand that last point.
