Generalization in Complex Analysis
As noted above, the theorem does not hold for differentiable complex-valued functions. Instead, a generalization of the theorem is sated such:

Let be a holomorphic function on the open convex set, and let and be distinct points in . Then there exist points u,v on (Linear line from to ) such that
Where Re is the Real part and Im is the Imaginary part of a complex-valued function.

Famous quotes containing the words complex and/or analysis:
“Its a complex fate, being an American, and one of the responsibilities it entails is fighting against a superstitious valuation of Europe.”
—Henry James (18431916)
“The spider-mind acquires a faculty of memory, and, with it, a singular skill of analysis and synthesis, taking apart and putting together in different relations the meshes of its trap. Man had in the beginning no power of analysis or synthesis approaching that of the spider, or even of the honey-bee; but he had acute sensibility to the higher forces.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (18381918)
