Re(z) < 0} onto {z ∈ C : |z| < 1}
(2) Does there exist a non-constant entire function f such that for
every z ∈ C, Im(z) > 0? Justify your answer.

compact subsets of Ω.
(5) Let Ω be a region which is symmetric with respect to the X-

f (z) is real whenever z ∈ Ω is real. Show that for every z ∈ Ω,
f (z) = f (z).
(6) Suppose f is a non-constant holomorphic function on a region
Ω and z0 ∈ Ω. If |f | has a local minima at z0 , then show that
f (z0 ) = 0.
(7) Let z0 ∈ Ω, Ω a region, and f ∈ H(Ω) be non-constant. If
f (z0 ) = 0, show that there is a unique positive integer k and
a g ∈ H(Ω) such that g(z0 ) 6= 0 and f (z) = (z − z0 )k g(z) for

zero z0 of f .)
