Statement

For domains in the complex numbers

Suppose U is a nonempty domain (open connected subset) of C. Then, given two maps f,g:UC, exactly one of these two possibilities holds:

  • fg on U
  • The set of points z for which f(z)=g(z) is a discrete closed subset (i.e. it has no limit points)

For Riemann surfaces

Fill this in later
