  2. Uniformization theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniformization_theorem

    Since every Riemann surface has a universal cover which is a simply connected Riemann surface, the uniformization theorem leads to a classification of Riemann surfaces into three types: those that have the Riemann sphere as universal cover ("elliptic"), those with the plane as universal cover ("parabolic") and those with the unit disk as ...

  3. Unit disk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_disk

    Unit disks are special cases of disks and unit balls; as such, they contain the interior of the unit circle and, in the case of the closed unit disk, the unit circle itself. Without further specifications, the term unit disk is used for the open unit disk about the origin , D 1 ( 0 ) {\displaystyle D_{1}(0)} , with respect to the standard ...

  4. Riemann surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_surface

    There are several equivalent definitions of a Riemann surface. A Riemann surface X is a connected complex manifold of complex dimension one. This means that X is a connected Hausdorff space that is endowed with an atlas of charts to the open unit disk of the complex plane: for every point x ∈ X there is a neighbourhood of x that is homeomorphic to the open unit disk of the complex plane, and ...

  5. Riemann mapping theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_mapping_theorem

    The Riemann mapping theorem can be generalized to the context of Riemann surfaces: If is a non-empty simply-connected open subset of a Riemann surface, then is biholomorphic to one of the following: the Riemann sphere, the complex plane, or the unit disk.

  6. Poincaré metric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_metric

    The Poincaré disk model defines a model for hyperbolic space on the unit disk. The disk and the upper half plane are related by a conformal map, and isometries are given by Möbius transformations. A third representation is on the punctured disk, where relations for q-analogues are sometimes expressed. These various forms are reviewed below.

  7. Poincaré disk model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_disk_model

    Poincaré disk with hyperbolic parallel lines Poincaré disk model of the truncated triheptagonal tiling.. In geometry, the Poincaré disk model, also called the conformal disk model, is a model of 2-dimensional hyperbolic geometry in which all points are inside the unit disk, and straight lines are either circular arcs contained within the disk that are orthogonal to the unit circle or ...

  8. Complex manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_manifold

    The simply connected 1-dimensional complex manifolds are isomorphic to either: . Δ, the unit disk in C; C, the complex plane; Ĉ, the Riemann sphere; Note that there are inclusions between these as Δ ⊆ C ⊆ Ĉ, but that there are no non-constant holomorphic maps in the other direction, by Liouville's theorem.

  9. Geometric function theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_function_theory

    The Schwarz lemma, named after Hermann Amandus Schwarz, is a result in complex analysis about holomorphic functions from the open unit disk to itself. The lemma is less celebrated than stronger theorems, such as the Riemann mapping theorem, which it helps to prove. It is however one of the simplest results capturing the rigidity of holomorphic ...
