If a holomorphic function F on the unit disc has positive real part, the Cayley transform between the half-plane and disk ϕ=(F−F(0))/(F+F(0)​) maps the disc into itself and vanishes at zero. The Schwarz lemma gives the displayed derivative bound. Equality holds exactly when ϕ(z)=ωz with ∣ω∣=1, equivalently F(z)=iImF(0)+ReF(0)(1+ωz)/(1−ωz).
