For any value of the complex logarithm, up to adding an integer multiple of . Its real part therefore satisfiesThe locus is the circle centred at the origin with radius . Different logarithm values change only the imaginary part. If a particular analytic branch of the complex logarithm with a cut is imposed, restrict the circle to that branch's domain; the modulus equation itself is branch independent.
