For which $z$ goes $f(z) = e^{iz^2} rightarrow 0$ if $|z| rightarrow infty$?












2












$begingroup$


Consider the function:
$$f(z) = e^{iz^2}.$$
For which values of $z$ goes $f(z) rightarrow 0$ if $|z| rightarrow infty$.
I've read that it is possible if:
$$0 < arg(z) leq frac{pi}{4}.$$



I've started by writing $f(z)$ as:
$$e^{iz^2} = e^{i|z|^2e^{i2theta}}.$$
We can then write the power as:
$$i|z|^2e^{i2theta} = i|z|^2cos(2theta) - |z|^2sin(2theta).$$
If $f(z)$ needs to go to zero, then the power of the exponent needs to be negative so:
$$sin(2theta)> 0 $$
$$cos(2theta)<0 $$



But then I get that $theta geq frac{pi}{4}$



Am I missing something or is there a better way to proof this.

    if $cos(2theta) < 0$ then $e^{i|z|^2 cos(2theta}$ has a negative power so if $|z| rightarrow infty$ then the exponent will go to zero. And the source is mathematical methods for physics and engineers from Riley.

Let $z = x + iy$, then



$$ f(z) = e^{i(x+iy)^2} = e^{i(x^2-y^2+2ixy)} = e^{-2xy}e^{i(x^2-y^2)} $$



$|f| = e^{-2xy} to 0$ if $xy > 0$, which means $z$ must be in the first or third quadrant, or $arg(z) in (0,pi/2) cup (-pi/2,-pi) $
