An unsolved problem in discrete analytic function theory has been to find a suitable analogue of the function . An analogue z(α), of the function zα, is found here for discrete analytic functions of the first kind (or monodiffric functions). This function resolves a conjecture of Isaacs in the negative, and at the same time it introduces multi-valued functions into the discrete analytic theory.
