Cayley transform (complex analysis)
ID: cayley-transform-complex-analysis
This Möbius transformation maps the upper half-plane onto the unit disk. For , the identity puts the image inside the unit disk. Its inverse is , so the map is a conformal bijection. On the extended real boundary it maps onto the unit circle. It is the scalar complex-analytic version of a Cayley map, rather than the matrix parametrization used in Cayley transform.
