Let , the inverse Cayley transform between the half-plane and disk. Direct calculation gives
so
On the unit disc, choose the holomorphic square root of equal to one at zero. Both sides define nonvanishing holomorphic derivatives, and their quotient has constant square. The branch chosen in part ii gives . Consequently
An affine change of image coordinate preserves conformality, so the lemniscatic integral maps the disc bijectively onto a square.
The normalization specifies the square exactly. Put . The substitution gives . The integral satisfies and , so its four corner values are . Thus
In particular the image is a square rotated through relative to the one in part ii, and its side length is . These symmetries also give from the affine identity.

. Details.
Use polar coordinates , . Away from the crossing, the lemniscate of Bernoulli has . An explicit parametrization of its four quarter-arcs is
where the two signs are independent. Indeed and . The four arcs meet at the origin and at the two lobe endpoints, covering the entire curve.
For the upper-right quarter, take , . Differentiating gives . Thus the arc length element satisfies
Set , which decreases from one to zero. Since , it follows that . All four quarter-arcs have the same length, so
The endpoint singularity is proportional to and is integrable. This is the geometric origin of the lemniscatic integral.
