How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.
Biholomorphisms are conformal and have holomorphic inverse
Remark
A biholomorphism is holomorphic and has a holomorphic inverse by Biholomorphic maps between complex domains, so it is conformal in the orientation-preserving sense this page uses: holomorphic with nowhere-vanishing derivative. The derivative cannot vanish at any point of its domain, because the local inverse supplied by Holomorphic inverse function theorem and local-degree criterion has derivative ; a vanishing would make that expression undefined. Such a map preserves the magnitude and the orientation of angles between tangent directions at every point.
The convention here is deliberately orientation-sensitive: complex conjugation preserves angle magnitudes but reverses orientation, so it is not conformal in this library's sense. That exclusion is exercised by the companion page's conjugation counterexample.

Dependency tree · two levels
11 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
