Conjugated Cauchy integral on a circle
ID: conjugated-cauchy-integral-on-a-circle
If is holomorphic on a neighborhood of the closed unit disc and , this boundary integral is independent of . Parametrizing the unit circle by and taking a complex conjugate giveswhere the last equality is the Cauchy integral formula applied to the holomorphic function at zero. The conjugation of the whole integral includes the factor and the differential; parametrization keeps their signs consistent. Equivalently, the conjugated boundary values have only nonpositive Fourier frequencies, so the Cauchy kernel detects their constant coefficient.
