Natural logarithm

Symbol: Log —

\log\!\left(z\right)

— Natural logarithm

The principal branch of the natural logarithm

\log\!\left(z\right)

is a function of one complex variable

z

.

It has a branch point singularity at

z = 0

and a branch cut on

\left(-\infty, 0\right]

where the value on

\left(-\infty, 0\right)

is taken to be continuous with the upper half plane.

The following table lists all conditions such that Log(z) is defined in Fungrim.

An X-ray plot illustrates the geometry of a complex analytic function

f\!\left(z\right)

. Thick black curves show where

\operatorname{Im}\!\left(f\!\left(z\right)\right) = 0

(the function is pure real). Thick red curves show where

\operatorname{Re}\!\left(f\!\left(z\right)\right) = 0

(the function is pure imaginary). Points where black and red curves intersect are zeros or poles. Magnitude level curves

\left|f\!\left(z\right)\right| = C

are rendered as thin gray curves, with brighter shades corresponding to larger

C

. Blue lines show branch cuts. The value of the function is continuous with the branch cut on the side indicated with a solid line, and discontinuous on the side indicated with a dashed line. Yellow is used to highlight important regions.
