So if I have a function like the following, where f is a complex function and B is real:
S(λ)=1+iBf(λ)
Suppose that I know that its modulus must be equal to 1, therefore:
Now how do I determine the conditions for the real part and its imaginary part?
I know that:
|1+iBf(λ)|2=1
From here:
|1+iB[Re(f(λ))+iIm(f(λ)]|2=1
Then I can say that the imaginary and real parts of the function would be:
Im(S(λ))=1+BRe(f(λ))
Re(S(λ))=−BIm(f(λ))
Is my reasoning correct?
Answer
For the modulus to be 1, you only need the product Bf to be ±1, for since |1+iBf|=1,
Of course I assumed B and f are real, since you do not say anything about them. Otherwise what I say above needs to be modified to be true.
OK, you have specified that f(λ) is complex valued. Thus, if you write f=a+ib, where a=a(λ),b=b(λ). Then we have that 1+iBf=1+iB(a+ib)=1−Bb+iBa.
For its modulus to be 1, we must have (1−Bb+iBa)(1−Bb−iBa)=1,
