Homework Statement


Let f and g be bijective holomorphic maps from an open set A to the unit circle. Let a \in A and c=f(a) and d=g(a). Find a relation between f and g that involves a,c,d,f'(a),g'(a).

The Attempt at a Solution



If we also assumed that the open set is connected and simply connected, then we could apply the Riemann Mapping Theorem.
If that were the case, then there is a bijective holomorphic map f^{-1}: \text{unit circle} \rightarrow A and g^{-1}: \text{unit circle} \rightarrow A Then by the open mapping theorem, f: A \rightarrow \text{unit circle} is continuous, thus a homeomorphism between A and the unit circle.

I'm not sure where to start because we don't have that "connected and simply connected" assumption.

We also know that f,g are biholomophic which implies that it's a conformal map, thus it is angle preserving. Is this a way to two conformal mapping to each other?
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
