Carathéodory derivative bound for the right half-plane

ID: caratheodory-derivative-bound-for-the-right-half-plane

If a holomorphic function on the unit disc has positive real part, the Cayley transform between the half-plane and disk maps the disc into itself and vanishes at zero. The Schwarz lemma gives the displayed derivative bound. Equality holds exactly when with , equivalently .
