The Riemann surface for the multivalued complex function f(z) = log(z) in a neighborhood of the origin. The (x, y) coordinates are the coordinates of z in the complex plane; the vertical coordinate represents the imaginary part of f(z), whose real part is represented by hue.
The Riemann sphere and stereographic projection.
A simple torus fading out to a wireframe structure.
f(z) = arcsin z
f(z) = log z
Riemann surface of Sqrt[z], projection from 4dim C x C to 3dim C x Re(C), color is argument
Riemann surface of the cube root, projection from 4dim C x C to 3dim C x Re(C), color is argument
Riemann surface of the 4th root, projection from 4dim C x C to 3dim C x Re(C), color is argument
