Yes. An explicit holomorphic surjection is the rational function
Its denominator never vanishes inside the unit disc. To prove surjectivity, take any and choose a square root of with ; one of the two opposite roots always has this property. Define . Then and
so . Also , and consequently .
This is a holomorphic surjection from the unit disc onto the complex plane. It does not contradict part (i): it is not injective. For example, , with two distinct arguments of modulus .
