For the original problem, I guess the interpretation of "bijective" was intended to be (1) above. In fact, are there any polynomials f(z) other than f(z) = c z, where |c| = 1 which are literally bijective (i.e., using interpretation 3) on the unit disk? quasi

The group of biholomorphic maps of the unit disk onto itself is a subgroup of the Mobius transforms and has elements of the form: c ( z - a )/(1 + \bar{a} z ) where |a| < 1 and |c| = 1. Other than the trivial c z, the others are not polynomials.

That agrees with what I expected. Thanks. quasi

When I first see the question, my first response is to interpret it as (3). But then I remember the only biholomorphic functions that map unit disk onto itself are the Mobius transform, interpretation (3) doesn't make sense. The proof is the same, relaxing the constraint simply allow you ignore irrelevant misleading hints ;-) |
