Since and are harmonic conjugates, is a holomorphic function on , with and . The entire function can be composed with . Its value isBy the complex chain rule the composition is holomorphic on , so its real and imaginary parts obey the Cauchy-Riemann equations. They are harmonic as well: differentiating those equations gives and likewise . Hence are a pair of harmonic conjugates on . No simple-connectivity assumption is needed because the conjugate pair is already supplied globally. The PDF has in both expressions; the differing TeX exponents are transcription defects.
