Syllabus 

This is an indicative syllabus, which will be adapted as we move along. References are given to Stein and Shakarchi's Complex Analysis, Princeton University Press. These references are indicative; we will sometimes deviate from the text. Nonetheless, reading the text and doing the exercises is strongly recommended!
