The holomorphic coupling is $\tau =\vartheta /(2\pi )+4\pi i/g^2$. Perturbative coefficients are independent of the topological angle $\vartheta$. A holomorphic function invariant under continuous shifts of $\mathrm{Re}\tau$ is constant by the Cauchy-Riemann equations, hence a perturbative local superpotential coefficient cannot depend on $\tau$. Terms in $e^{2\pi i\tau }$ can evade this argument nonperturbatively. This does not forbid renormalization of the separate gauge kinetic F-term, or wave-function renormalization from the Kähler potential.

For an analytic function $f=u+iv$ and planar Brownian motion $Z=X+iY$ with independent standard coordinates, the Cauchy-Riemann equations make $u,v$ harmonic. The Itô formula gives $dU=u_{x}dX+u_{y}dY$ and $dV=-u_{y}dX+u_{x}dY$. Localizing the derivatives proves both coordinates are local martingales. Squaring their diffusion coefficients and multiplying the two rows gives the displayed quadratic variations and zero quadratic covariation.

For a positive harmonic function on the unit disc, choose a global harmonic conjugate and apply the Carathéodory derivative bound for the right half-plane to $u+iv$. This gives $|\nabla u(0)|\le 2u(0)$ by the Cauchy-Riemann equations. A disk automorphism sending zero to $z$ has derivative modulus $1-|z{|}^2$, so the chain rule gives the displayed bound. Composing a boundary-pole Poisson kernel with a disk automorphism attains equality, proving the coefficient is optimal at every point.

Let $Y$ be a embedded submanifold of a complex manifold. If its tangent spaces are invariant under the almost complex structure induced by a complex atlas, choose ambient holomorphic coordinates making its tangent space at one point ${\mathbb{C}}^k\times 0$. The first $k$ coordinates restrict to a local real diffeomorphism by the inverse function theorem, so $Y$ is locally the graph of a smooth function $F$. Invariance of the tangent graph gives $dF(iv)=idF(v)$, the Cauchy-Riemann equations. Thus $F$ is holomorphic and these graph coordinates give the induced complex submanifold structure. This proves the result directly, without needing the general integrability theorem as an unproved step.

For subsonic motion $|V|<c$, an antiplane shear displacement $w(x_1-Vt,x_2)$ satisfies ${\beta }^2{w}_{xx}+w_{x_2{x}_2}=0$. The displayed rescaling makes it a harmonic function of $(x,y)$, so locally $w=\mathrm{Re}H(x+iy)$ for a holomorphic function $H$. Set $F=\beta H$. The Cauchy-Riemann equations then give $\mu F^{\prime }=\beta {\sigma }_{13}-i{\sigma }_{23}$. Keeping this potential normalization explicit avoids losing a factor of $\beta$ in the dynamic stress field. At sonic or supersonic speeds the elliptic harmonic reduction does not apply.

For $z=x+iy$, the Wirtinger derivatives are ${\partial }_z=({\partial }_x-i{\partial }_y)/2$ and ${\partial }_{\bar{z}}=({\partial }_x+i{\partial }_y)/2$. The Cauchy-Riemann equations become ${\partial }_{\bar{z}}F=0$ for a holomorphic function $F$, and $4{\partial }_z{\partial }_{\bar{z}}=\Delta$. Thus $u_z$ is holomorphic whenever $u$ is a twice continuously differentiable harmonic function.
