The reason we discussed the Heat and Wave equations was to illustrate other examples of the methods we used to prove Theorems 1 and 2. So, if you only care about holomorphic functions you don't need to worry about those examples.

+You may find it helpful to think about other ways of deriving Theorems 1 and 2. For an alternate proof of Theorem 1 (which may be more comprehensible, since it doesn't involve any confusing changes of coordinates), see Problems 7 and 8 of Problem Set 3.
An alternate proof of Theorem 2 goes as follows: Since $f$ is holomorphic on a disk, it has a Laurent expansion. The statement of Theorem 2 says that the negative terms in this Laurent expansion are zero. First let's prove that $c_{-1}$ is zero. Since $c_{-1}$ is the residue of $f$ at zero, it is given by
$$c_{-1} = \int_{\gamma_r} f(z) dz$$
