How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T12579720 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Target entity: Joukowski transform Context triple: [Nikolai Yegorovich Zhukovsky, notableFor, Joukowski transform]
-
A.
Schwarz–Christoffel mapping
The Schwarz–Christoffel mapping is a conformal transformation that maps the upper half-plane (or unit disk) onto polygonal regions, playing a central role in complex analysis and applications such as fluid dynamics and electrostatics.
-
B.
Möbius transformations
Möbius transformations are conformal automorphisms of the extended complex plane represented by fractional linear functions that map circles and lines to circles and lines.
-
C.
Koebe function
The Koebe function is a specific univalent holomorphic function on the unit disk that extremizes several classical bounds in geometric function theory, notably serving as the extremal example in the Koebe quarter theorem.
-
D.
Blasius
Blasius is a Latinized form of the given name Blaise, historically associated with Christian saints and scholars.
-
E.
Stieltjes transform
The Stieltjes transform is an integral transform that encodes a measure or distribution via a complex-analytic function, widely used in random matrix theory to study limiting spectral distributions and resolvents.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
