Conformal Maps and Geometry

Geometric function theory is one of the most interesting parts of complex analysis, an area that has become increasingly relevant as a key feature in the theory of Schramm–Loewner evolution.

Though Riemann mapping theorem is frequently explored, there are few texts that discuss general theory of univalent maps, conformal invariants, and Loewner evolution. This textbook provides an accessible foundation of the theory of conformal maps and their connections with geometry.

It offers a unique view of the field, as it is one of the first to discuss general theory of univalent maps at a graduate level, while introducing more complex theories of conformal invariants and extremal lengths. Conformal Maps and Geometry is an ideal resource for graduate courses in Complex Analysis or as an analytic prerequisite to study the theory of Schramm–Loewner evolution.

Readership: Advanced undergraduate or graduate students in mathematics, especially those interested in analysis or theory of Schramm–Loewner Evolution.Complex Analysis;Conformal Maps;Function Theory0Key Features:This book can be used to introduce graduate students to the beauty of complex analysis. It gives a unique view of the field, particularly the general theory of univalent. It includes a new take on the Loewner evolution, with emphasis on the 'chordal' case, as opposed to the 'radical' case. It also includes the theory of conformal invariants and extremal length, the first textbook to do so
