Excerpt from Elements of the Theory of Functions of a Complex Variable: With Especial Reference to the Methods of Riemann Numerous additions have been made to Section IX., which treats of multiply connected surfaces. If Riemann's fundamental proposition on these surfaces be enunciated in such a form that merely simply connected pieces are formed by both modes of resolution, - as is ordinarily, and was also in 49, the case, - then it must be supplemented for further applications. Such supplementary matter was given in 52 in the classification of surfaces, and in 53, V. But if we express the fundamental proposition in the form in which Riemann originally established it, in which merely simply connected pieces are formed by only one mode of resolution, while the pieces resulting from the other mode of resolution may or may not be simply connected, then all difficulties are obviated, and the conclusions follow immediately without requiring further expedients. This was shown in a supplementary note at the end of the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
