    Standard conformal maps between half-planes, sectors, strips and discs

    T-2KGOX

    Half-planes, the upper half-disc, the first quadrant, sectors, and strips are mapped onto one another by Möbius transformations, powers, $\Log$, $e^{iz}$, the Joukowski map, and $\sin$.Suggest a slogan

    Write \(\HH=\ts{\Im z>0}\) for the upper half-plane, \(\DD^+=\ts{\abs z<1,\ \Im z>0}\) for the upper half-disc, \(Q_1=\ts{\Re z>0,\ \Im z>0}\) for the first quadrant, \(S_\beta=\ts{re^{i\theta}\st r>0,\ 0<\theta<\beta}\) for the sector of opening \(\beta\), \(\Sigma=\ts{0<\Im z<\pi}\) for the horizontal strip, and \(\Log\) for the principal branch of the logarithm. Each of the following maps is a biholomorphism from the stated domain onto the stated target.
