You want f and g to be +/- sqrt(1-z^2). But the square root function is defined using a branch of the log function. Hence we need to be concerned with an appropriate branch cut. Hence, you need to find the set, D, of all complex numbers that are mapped to the interval (-infty, 0] by the function 1-z^2. Then, G = C\D. Note that the set D is characterized by: Im(1-z^2)=0 and Re(1-z^2)<=0. ____________________________________________________________________________ 21. Take the following two sequences: w_n = -1 + i/n and v_n = -1 - i/n. Note that both sequences converge to -1. Apply log to these two sequences. You will get the discontinuity by looking at arg(w_n) and arg(v_n). ____________________________________________________________________________
