Is $z^{1/n}$ analytic?

380 Views Asked by At

Let $G$ be any open connected set in $\mathbb{C}$ then is $f(z)=z^{1/n}$ analytic in $G$?

It seems to be that it won't be analytic if $0$ is in G. However, I can't break $f$ into real and imaginary components so that I can use the CR equations. Or will my way not work at all? Please help.
