समिश्र विश्लेषण के गणित में आयलर सूत्र (Euler's formula) त्रिकोणमितीय फलनों एवं समिश्र चरघातांकी फलन (exponential function) के परस्पर गहरे सम्बन्धों को व्यक्त करता है। आयलर सूत्र निम्नलिखित है-

जहाँ x कोई वास्तविक संख्या है; e एक गणितीय नियतांक है जो प्राकृतिक लघुगणक (natural logarithm) के आधार का काम करता है। x का मान रेडियन में होना चाहिये, डिग्री में नहीं।

यह सूत्र तब भी वैध (सत्य) है जब x एक समिश्र संख्या हो।


इतिहास संपादित करें

सरल शब्दों में आयलर सूत्र सभी बहुफलकों पर परिभाषित है (ie. a 3 dimensional figure that has face,vertex & edge present in them like cube,cuboid etc.) मुख्य सूत्र निम्न है : फलक + शीर्ष = कोर + 2 या F + V = E + 2 या F + V - E = 2 YOU CAN EVEN PRACTICALY EXPERMENT THIS FORMULA ON EVERY POLYHEDRON (it would surely exist on each on of them). NOW LET'S MOVE AHEAD & KNOW MORE ABOUT THE EULER'S FORMULA. LETS KNOW ABOUT ITS HISTORY AS MENTIONED BELOW :- Euler's formula was proven for the first time by Roger Cotes in 1714 in the form

 

(where "ln" means natural logarithm, i.e. log with base e).[1]

It was Euler who published the equation in its current form in 1748, basing his proof on the infinite series of both sides being equal. Neither of these men saw the geometrical interpretation of the formula: the view of complex numbers as points in the complex plane arose only some 50 years later (see Caspar Wessel). Euler considered it natural to introduce students to complex numbers much earlier than we do today. In his elementary algebra text book, Elements of Algebra, he introduces these numbers almost at once and then uses them in a natural way throughout.

This formula can be interpreted as saying that the function eix traces out the unit circle in the complex number plane as x ranges through the real numbers. Here, x is the angle that a line connecting the origin with a point on the unit circle makes with the positive real axis, measured counter clockwise and in radians.

The original proof is based on the Taylor series expansions of the exponential function ez (where z is a complex number) and of sin x and cos x for real numbers x (see below). In fact, the same proof shows that Euler's formula is even valid for all complex numbers z.

A point in the complex plane can be represented by a complex number written in cartesian coordinates. Euler's formula provides a means of conversion between cartesian coordinates and polar coordinates. The polar form reduces the number of terms from two to one, which simplifies the mathematics when used in multiplication or powers of complex numbers. Any complex number z = x + iy can be written as

 
 

where

  the real part
  the imaginary part
  the magnitude of z
  atan2(y, x)

  is the argument of z—i.e., the angle between the x axis and the vector z measured counterclockwise and in radians—which is defined up to addition of 2π.

Now, taking this derived formula, we can use Euler's formula to define the logarithm of a complex number. To do this, we also use the definition of the logarithm (as the inverse operator of exponentiation) that

 

and that

 

both valid for any complex numbers a and b.

Therefore, one can write:

 

for any  . Taking the logarithm of both sides shows that:

 

and in fact this can be used as the definition for the complex logarithm. The logarithm of a complex number is thus a multi-valued function, because   is multi-valued.

Finally, the other exponential law

 

which can be seen to hold for all integers k, together with Euler's formula, implies several trigonometric identities as well as de Moivre's formula.

त्रिकोणमिति के साथ सम्बन्ध संपादित करें

Euler's formula provides a powerful connection between analysis and trigonometry, and provides an interpretation of the sine and cosine functions as weighted sums of the exponential function:

 
 

The two equations above can be derived by adding or subtracting Euler's formulas:

 
 

and solving for either cosine or sine.

These formulas can even serve as the definition of the trigonometric functions for complex arguments x. For example, letting x = iy, we have:

 
 

Complex exponentials can simplify trigonometry, because they are easier to manipulate than their sinusoidal components. One technique is simply to convert sinusoids into equivalent expressions in terms of exponentials. After the manipulations, the simplified result is still real-valued. For example:

 
Euler's formula illustrated with the three dimensional helix, starting with the 2-D orthogonal components of the unit circle, sine and cosine.
 

Another technique is to represent the sinusoids in terms of the real part of a more complex expression, and perform the manipulations on the complex expression. For example:

 

This formula is used for recursive generation of a sinusoid at intervals of x radians.

अन्य उपयोग संपादित करें

In differential equations, the function eix is often used to simplify derivations, even if the final answer is a real function involving sine and cosine. Euler's identity is an easy consequence of Euler's formula.

In electrical engineering and other fields, signals that vary periodically over time are often described as a combination of sine and cosine functions (see Fourier analysis), and these are more conveniently expressed as the real part of exponential functions with imaginary exponents, using Euler's formula. Also, phasor analysis of circuits can include Euler's formula to represent the impedance of a capacitor or an inductor.

समिश्र चरघातांकी (exponentiation) की परिभाषा संपादित करें

In general, raising e to a positive integer exponent has a simple interpretation in terms of repeated multiplication of e. Raising e to zero or a negative integer exponent can be understood as repeated division. A rational number exponent can be defined by radicals of e, and an irrational number exponent can be defined by finding rational-number exponents that are arbitrarily close to the irrational-number exponent, in a limit process. However, to define and understand a complex number exponent of e, a different type of generalization is required for the concept of exponentiation.

In fact, several definitions are possible. All of them can be proven to be well-defined and equivalent, although the proofs are not included in this article.

It is well-known that, for any real x, the following series is equal to ex:

 

(in other words, this is the Taylor series for the real exponential function, and it has an infinite radius of convergence). This invites the following definition of ez for complex z:

 

This can be proven to be well-defined; in particular, the series converges for any z.

Analytic continuation definition संपादित करें

A simple-to-state, equivalent definition is that ez, for complex z, is the analytic continuation of the function ex for real x. This can be proven to be well-defined; in particular, it yields a single-valued function on the complex plane.

It is well-known that, for any real x, the following limit is equal to ex:

 

This motivates the following definition of ez for complex z:

 

Differential equation definition संपादित करें

For real x, the function f(x)=ex is well-known to be the unique real function satisfying the differential equation:

 

for all x. This motivates a definition of f(z)=ez for complex z as the function that satisfies the differential equation:

 

for all complex z, where the derivative in f'(z) is defined in the sense of a complex derivative. This can be proven to yield a unique function which is well-defined everywhere on the complex plane.

Multiplicative property definition संपादित करें

We would expect the function ez to have the following properties:

  •  
  •  
  •  
  •   is continuous

It turns out that this uniquely specifies a function on the complex plane.

Proofs संपादित करें

Various proofs of this formula are possible. The first proof below starts with the "Taylor series definition" of ez, while the other two use the "Differential equation definition" of ez (see above).

Using Taylor series संपादित करें

Here is a proof of Euler's formula using Taylor series expansions as well as basic facts about the powers of i:

 

and so on. The functions ex, cos x and sin x of the (real) variable x can be expressed using their Taylor expansions around zero:

 

For complex z we define each of these functions by the above series, replacing the real variable x with the complex variable z. This is possible because the radius of convergence of each series is infinite. We then find that

 

The rearrangement of terms is justified because each series is absolutely convergent. Taking z = x to be a real number gives the original identity as Euler discovered it.

Using calculus संपादित करें

Define the (possibly complex) function ƒ(x), of real variable x, as

 

The derivative of ƒ(x), according to the product rule, is:

 

Therefore, ƒ(x) must be a constant function in x. Because ƒ(0) is known, the constant that ƒ(x) equals for all real x is also known. Thus,

 

Multiplying both sides by eix and using

 

it follows that

Define the function g(x) by

 

Considering that i is constant, the first and second derivatives of g(x) are

 
 

because i 2 = −1 by definition. From this the following 2nd-order linear ordinary differential equation is constructed:

 

or

 

Being a 2nd-order differential equation, there are two linearly independent solutions that satisfy it:

 
 

Both cos and sin are real functions in which the 2nd derivative is identical to the negative of that function. Any linear combination of solutions to a homogeneous differential equation is also a solution. Then, in general, the solution to the differential equation is

   
 

for any constants A and B. But not all values of these two constants satisfy the known initial conditions for g(x):

However these same initial conditions (applied to the general solution) are
