Statement

Let D denote the open unit disc in C. Consider the function Δ:D×D→R, given by:

Δ(z,w):=|z−w||w¯z−1|

Then, if f:D→D is a holomorphic function, we have:

  • For all z,w∈D, Δ(f(z),f(w))≤Δ(z,w)
  • f is a conformal automorphism of D if and only if for all z,w∈D, we have Δ(f(z),f(w))=Δ(z,w)
