Where Can I Find a Simpler Proof of the Riemann Mapping Theorem?

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around the search for simpler proofs of the Riemann mapping theorem, exploring various resources and recommendations for accessing these proofs. The scope includes theoretical aspects of complex analysis and references to literature.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses a desire for a simpler proof of the Riemann mapping theorem, noting the difficulty of the original proof.
  • Another participant suggests using Google to search for proofs, indicating that this method may yield useful results despite the need to sift through many sources.
  • A third participant confirms the effectiveness of the Google search approach and expresses gratitude for the suggestion.
  • Additional recommendations for specific books are provided, including Henri Cartan's work on complex analysis and Hille's two-volume book on analytic functions.
  • A later reply reiterates the effectiveness of Google as a resource for finding proofs.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the utility of online searches for finding proofs, but there is no consensus on a specific simpler proof or resource that meets the initial request.

Contextual Notes

Participants do not specify the particular aspects of the Riemann mapping theorem they find challenging, nor do they clarify the criteria for what constitutes a "simpler" proof.

Who May Find This Useful

Readers interested in complex analysis, particularly those seeking resources for understanding the Riemann mapping theorem and its proofs.

I'm looking for a proof of the Riemann mapping theorem. If I'm not mistaking, there are differnet proofs and the original proof is quite difficult.
I'd appreciate any information on where I can/might find a less complicated proof of this theorem.

Best way to find proofs is just to go to google and type in:

"Riemann mapping theorem" proof

you'll have to sort through a lot of sites but that's probably your best bet. Or you could be old fashioned and actually go to a library and check out the math books...of course that depends on whether or not you have a good math library near you.
 
That actually worked, can't believe I didn't think of that myself.
Thanks for the help.
 
i recommend henri cartans book on complex analysis, analytic functions of one and several,complex variables. also hille's book on analytic functions, in 2 volumes.
