Theorem 8.2.2. If a finction f is conformal at a point zo, then it is unilateral on someneighborhood of zo.Proof. Since f'(z)+0, using Lemma 8.2.1 for m=1, we know that there exists aneighborhood N(zo,e) of z and a neighborhood N(wo,) of wo such thatza is theuniquezero off()-woinN(zo,)and it is of order 1,and for eachfixedpointweN(wo,), the function f(z)-w has exactly 1 zero in the deleted neighborhoodN(zo,). From the continuity of f(z)-w, we can choose a positive number μ< suchthatf(N(zo,μ) N(wo,8).If f is not unilateral on N(zo,μ), then there are two distinct points zj,=, E N(zo,μ) suchthat f(-)=f(=,)=w.Thus,z1,=2±zo,w±wo sincezo is the unique zero off(z)-wo in N(zo,).We see that the function f(z)-w has two distinct zerosZi,Z2 e N°(z0, μ)c N°(z0,6)Since we N(wo,), this is impossible.Thus, f is unilateral on N(zo,).The proof iscompleted.Theorem 8.2.3. Let f be a nonconstant analytic function on a domain D, then f(D)is a domain.Proof. Let wE f(D), then z e D such that wo = f(zo). Since D is open, there aneighborhood N(zo,R)D.Since is analytic and nonconstant in D,there is a positiveinteger m suchthatf'(=o)= "(z0)=..= f(m-1(=0) = 0, f(m)(z0)+ 0 .From Lemma 8.2.1, there is a positive number r < R such that V0<<r,38 >0 so that foreach fixed point weN(wo,),the function f(z)-whas exactly m zeros countingmultiplicity in the deleted neighborhood N°(zo,). Thus,N(wo,8)c f(N(z0,8) cDHence, wo is an interior pointof f(D) and so f(D) is open.For points w,w, E f(D), take z),=2 ED with (z)=w(k=1,2). Since D isconnected, there is a polygonal lineL: z= z(t)(a≤t≤b)contained in D such that z(a)=zi,z(b)=z2. Since f has conitinuous derivative in D,wegetapiecewise smooth curver: w= w(t)= f(z(t)(a≤t<b)contained in f(D) such thatw(a) = w,w(b)= W2The compactness of the I enable us to find a polygonal line 'contained in f(D) andjioning w, and w,:This proves that f(D) is a domain in the w-plane.The proof iscompleted

s8.3.Local InversesA transformation w= f(-) that is conformal at a point zo has a local inverse there. That is,we haveTheorem 8.3.1. If a transformation w= f() is conformal at a zo and w= f(z),then there exists a unique transformation z=g(w),which is defined and analytic in aneighborhood N of wo, such that g(wo)==o and flg(w))=w for all pints w in Nand the derivative of g(w) is, moreover,1g'(w) =(8.3.1)f(2)Proof. As noted in Sec. 8.1, the conformality of the transformation W=f(=) at zoimplies that there is a neighborhood N(zo,) of zo throughout which f is analytic andf'(-)+0.Henceifwewritez=x+iy, zo=xo +iyo,and f(z)=u(x,y)+iv(x,y),we know that there is a neighborhood N(zo,) of the point (xo,yo) throughout which thefunctions u(x,y) and v(x,y) along with their partial derivatives of all orders, are continuous(see Sec. 4.13).Now, the pair ofequationsu=u(x,y), v=v(x,y)(8.3.2)represents a transformation from the neighborhood N(zo,) into the uv plane. Moreover, theJacobiandeterminantluxu,J==uy, -vu, =(u) +(v) =f()Pyxyyis nonzero on N(=o,).Ifwewrite(8.3.3)o = u(xo,yo) and Vo = v(xo,yo)then from the theory of implicit functions in mathematical analysis, we know that there is a uniquecontinuous transformationx=x(u,v), y= y(u,v),(8.3.4)defined on a neighborhood N of the point (uo,vo) such thatu= u(x(u,v),y(u,v), = v(x(u,v),y(u,v), xo = x(uo,vo), yo = y(uo,vo)Also, the functions (8.3.4) have continuous first-order partial derivatives satisfying the equations111(8.3.5)xu=Vy,x,=uysyu=Vx,y=-uJ1Jthroughout N.Ifwewrite w=u+iv and wo=uo+ivo,aswell as(8.3.6)g(w)= x(u, v)+iy(u,v),the transformation z = g(w) is evidently the local inverse of the original transformationw= f(z) at zo.Transformations (8.3.2)and (8.3.4) can be writtenu+iv=u(x,y)+iv(x,y)andx+iy=x(u,v)+iy(u,v);and these last two equations are the same asw= f(=) and z= g(w),where g has the desired properties. From expression (8.3.5), we see that the function (8.3.4)have continuous partial derivatives and that the Cauchy-Riemann equationsx =y,x, =-yu
§8.3. Local Inverses A transformation = zfw )( that is conformal at a point has a local inverse there. That is, we have 0 z Theorem 8.3.1.

Hence if we write 0 z f ′ zf ≠ 0)( z = x + iy , 000 = + iyxz , and = + yxivyxuzf ),(),()( , we know that there is a neighborhood ),(zN 0 δ of the point throughout which the functions and along with their partial derivatives of all orders, are continuous (see Sec. 4.13). ),( 00 yx yxu ),( yxv ),( Now, the pair of equations = yxuu ),( , = yxvv ),( (8.3.2) represents a transformation from the neighborhood ),(zN 0 δ into the plane. Moreover, the Jacobian determinant uv yxyx yx yx uvvu vv uu J −== 2 2 2 zfvu )()()( x x =+= ′ is nonzero on ),(zN 0 δ . If we write ),( 0 00 = yxuu and ),( 0 00 = yxvv . (8.3.3) then from the theory of implicit functions in mathematical analysis, we know that there is a unique continuous transformation = vuxx ),( , = vuyy ),( , (8.3.4) defined on a neighborhood N of the point ),( such that 00 vu = vuyvuxuu )),(),(( , = vuyvuxvv )),(),(( , ),( 0 00 = vuxx , ),( . 0 00 = vuyy Also, the functions (8.3.4) have continuous first-order partial derivatives satisfying the equations u y v J x 1 = , v y u J x 1 −= , u x v J y 1 −= , v x u J y 1 = (8.3.5) throughout N . If we write = + ivuw and 000 = + ivuw , as well as = + vuiyvuxwg ),(),()( , (8.3.6) the transformation is evidently the local inverse of the original transformation at . Transformations (8.3.2) and (8.3.4) can be written = wgz )( = zfw )( 0 z +=+ yxivyxuivu ),(),( and + = + vuiyvuxiyx ),(),( ; and these last two equations are the same as = zfw )( and = wgz )( , where has the desired properties. From expression (8.3.5), we see that the function (8.3.4) have continuous partial derivatives and that the Cauchy-Riemann equations g uvvu = , = −yxyx
