Riemann Mapping Theorem


Let z_0 be a point in a simply connected region R!=C, where C is the complex plane. Then there is a unique analytic function w=f(z) mapping R one-to-one onto the disk |w|<1 such that f(z_0)=0 and f^'(z_0)>0. The corollary guarantees that any two simply connected regions except R^2 (the Euclidean plane) can be mapped conformally onto each other.
