Give a proof or a counter-example. A function f is analytic in an open set implies f being bounded there.

Complete question: Give a proof or a counter-example. If $B^º$ is an open set of C and $f: B^ºrightarrow C$ is an analytic function, then f is bounded in $B^º$.



My attempt:



If $f$ is bounded, then $|f(z)|leq M, M in N$, $forall z in B^º$. Let $g(z)=e^z$, entire in C. Then, there exists an $M in N$, such that, $|e^z|leq M, forall z in B^º$.
$rightarrow ln(|e^z|)leq ln(M) Rightarrow zleq ln(M)$, but, as $B^ºsubset C$ is any open set, we could choose it as $B^ºcup { z_0 } $, where $z_0 > M$ which would led to a contradiction. Thus, $f$ being analytic does not imply being bounded in an open set.



Is this correct?

    I tried with that function. Is the following argument correct? Let $f(z)=frac {1}{(1-z)}$ analytic in the open set $B^º(0,1)$. $lim_{xto 1^+} f(z)=-infty$ and $lim_{xto 1^-} f(z)=+infty$, thus, we could not find a M such that, $|f(z)|leq M, forall z in B^º$

Your argument is not correct but it becomes correct if you just choose $z$ to be real. For complex $z$ it is not true that $ln(|e^{z}|)=z$ and the inequality $z leq ln M$ does not make sense. Besides, you can take the open set $B^{0}$ to be $mathbb C$ in your argument.

    I just thought something about it right now. When I add the $z_0$ to set $B^º$, wouldn't this change M again, so that the inequality $zleq ln(M)$ would still hold?
