Homework Statement
The problem is from Sarason, page 44, Exercise IV.14.1.
Let f be a univalent holomorphic function in the open connected set G, and let g be the inverse function.
Assume that f(G) is open, that g is continuous, and that [tex]f\prime\neq 0\forall z\in G[/tex]. Prove g is holomorphic.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I've tried 3 different methods, failing with each. I'd appreciate any insight into the problem.
My professor recommended looking at the calculus proof of the derivative of an inverse, and the following:
Start with [tex]w_{0}\in f(G)[/tex], and with h small, look at [tex]\frac{(g(w_{0}+h)-g(w_{0}))}{h}[/tex].
Because [tex]f(G)[/tex] is open, we know there is a [tex]\delta>0\ni \left|h\right|<\delta[/tex] gives us [tex]w_{0}+h\in f(G)[/tex].
So with h that small, we have [tex]w_{0}+h=f(z)[/tex] for some [tex]z \in
G[/tex].
