consequence derivative at the origin of a self-map of the disk fixing 0 is bounded by 1 in modulus
origin is a fixed point of extremal maps
coreInequality |f'(0)| ≤ 1 and |f(z)| ≤ |z|
domainCondition function holomorphic on the open unit disk
equalityCaseDescription f(z) = e^{iθ} z for some real θ
equalityCondition if |f'(0)| = 1 then f is a rotation
