Fungrim symbol: ComplexBranchDerivative

Symbol: ComplexBranchDerivative —

\frac{d}{d z}\, f\!\left(z\right)

— Complex derivative, allowing branch cuts

The call syntax for this operator is the same as for Derivative.

This operator is equivalent to ComplexDerivative except that whereas ComplexDerivative is undefined on a branch cut (where the function is not complex differentiable), ComplexBranchDerivative gives the complex derivative of the analytically continued function across the branch cut.
