Bôcher's theorem in complex analysis
In complex analysis, the theorem states that the finite zeros of the derivative
Furthermore, if C1 and C2 are two disjoint circular regions which contain respectively all the zeros and all the poles of
Bôcher's theorem for harmonic functions
In the theory of harmonic functions, Bôcher's theorem states that a positive harmonic function in punctured domain (an open domain minus one point in the interior) is a linear combination of a harmonic function in the unpunctured domain with a scaled fundamental solution for the Laplacian in that domain.
