Complex differentiability at a point without holomorphy nearby

ID: complex-differentiability-at-a-point-without-holomorphy-nearby

At zero, , so the complex derivative exists. At a nonzero point, write . The Cauchy-Riemann equations for and force and , impossible when . Hence the function is complex differentiable only at zero and is holomorphic on no nonempty open subset. A complex derivative at one point gives no neighborhood of complex differentiability.
