JEE Complex Numbers 2

Algebra Level 5

Let z 1 , z 2 z_1,z_2 be complex numbers such that I m ( z 1 z 2 ) = 1 Im(z_1z_2)=1 , the minimum value of z 1 2 + z 2 2 + R e ( z 1 z 2 ) |z_1|^2+|z_2|^2+Re(z_1z_2) is ω \omega . Then calculate 100 ω \lfloor 100\omega\rfloor .

Details and Assumptions

  • I m ( z ) Im(z) is the imaginary part of complex number z z

Here's a trigonometric approach to the problem:

z 1 z 2 = r r ( c o s ( α ) + i s i n ( α z_{1}z_{2}=rr'(cos(\alpha)+isin(\alpha ) ) So I m ( z 1 z 2 ) = 1 r r = c s c ( α ) Im(z_{1}z_{2})=1 \Rightarrow rr'=csc(\alpha)

And we know That: z 1 2 + z 2 2 2 z 1 z 2 |z_{1}|^2+|z_{2}|^2 \geq 2|z_{1}z_{2}|

And: z 1 z 2 = r r |z_{1}z_{2}|=rr'

So, we can write the following inequality:

z 1 2 + z 2 2 + R e ( z 1 z 2 ) 2 z 1 z 2 + R e ( z 1 z 2 ) |z_{1}|^2+|z_{2}|^2+Re(z_{1}z_{2}) \geq 2|z_{1}z_{2}|+Re(z_{1}z_{2}) R e ( z 1 z 2 ) = c o t ( α ) Re(z_{1}z_{2})=cot(\alpha) 2 z 1 z 2 = 2 c s c ( α ) 2|z_{1}z_{2}|=2csc(\alpha)

Now we are left with the expression: 2 c s c ( α ) + c o t ( α ) 2csc(\alpha)+cot(\alpha)

All we do now is to take the derivative of the above expression with respect to α \alpha and find the minimum value of That expression wich is: 3 \boxed {\sqrt{3}}

Nice one! Keep up the good work!

Write z 1 z_1 = r 1 r_1 e i e^i A ^A and z 2 z_2 = r 2 r_2 e i e^i B ^B using Eulers's form. So I m ( z 1 z 2 Im(z_1z_2 )= r 1 r_1 r 2 r_2 s i n ( A + B ) sin(A+B) =1 From the second equation, we can find out the real part which will be r 1 r_1 r 2 r_2 c o s ( A + B ) cos(A+B) ) So we have to find the minimum value of ( r 1 ) 2 + ( r 2 ) 2 ± ( r 1 r 2 ) 2 1 (r_1)^2+(r_2)^2\pm\sqrt{(r_1r_2)^2-1} This comes out as 3 \sqrt{3} using partial derivatives

Typo! Its z 1 2 + z 2 2 + R e ( z 1 z 2 ) |z_1|^2+|z_2|^2\color{#D61F06}{+} Re(z_1z_2)

But with this shouldn't the minimum be 2?

Actually it must be ± ( r 1 r 2 ) 2 1 \pm\sqrt{(r_1r_2)^2-1} , Real part can be negative as well. And to minimize the given expression, it will be negative, so your solution was correct! I have added ± \pm there.

z1 = a +bi, z2 = c +di z1z2 = ac - bd+ (bc+ad)i

K = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d^2+ ac - bd, with bc +ad =1 K = (a^2 + c^2) + (b^2 + d^2) +ac - bd >= 2ac + 2bd + ac - bd (Cauchy formula) = 3ac + bd = 3a^2 + b^2 (c = a & d = b) >=2sqrt(3) a b = sqrt(3) (bc + ad =1 <=.>ab=1/2)
