Statement
Schwarz Lemma. Let D = {z : |z| < 1} be the open unit disk in the complex plane C centered at the origin and let f : D → D be a holomorphic map such that f(0) = 0. Then, |f(z)| ≤ |z| for all z in D and |f′(0)| ≤ 1. Moreover, if |f(z)| = |z| for some non-zero z or |f′(0)| = 1, then f(z) = az for some a in C with |a| = 1.
Note. Some authors replace the condition f : D → D with |f(z)| ≤ 1 for all z in D (where f is still holomorphic in D). The two versions can be shown to be equivalent through an application of the maximum modulus principle.

Famous quotes containing the word statement:
“It is commonplace that a problem stated is well on its way to solution, for statement of the nature of a problem signifies that the underlying quality is being transformed into determinate distinctions of terms and relations or has become an object of articulate thought.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
“After the first powerful plain manifesto
The black statement of pistons, without more fuss
But gliding like a queen, she leaves the station.”
—Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
“Truth is used to vitalize a statement rather than devitalize it. Truth implies more than a simple statement of fact. “I don’t have any whisky,” may be a fact but it is not a truth.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
