Abstract: Given a bounded n-connected domain in the plane bounded by non-intersecting Jordan curves, and given one point on each boundary curve, L. Bieberbach proved that there exists a proper holomorphic mapping of the domain onto the unit disc that is an n-to-one branched covering with the properties that it extends continuously to the boundary and maps each boundary curve one-to-one onto the unit circle, and it maps each given point on the boundary to the point 1 in the unit circle. We modify a proof by H. Grunsky of Bieberbach's result to show that there is a rational function of 2n+2 complex variables that generates all of these maps. We also show how to generate all the proper holomorphic mappings to the unit disc via the rational function.

Review text

The authors show that there are two Ahlfors maps \(f_1\) and \(f_2\) associated with the domain such that any such mapping is given by a fixed linear fractional transformation mapping of the right half plane to the unit disc composed with \(cR+ iC\), where \(R\) is a rational function of the \((2n+2)\) functions \(f_1(z)\), \(f_2(z)\) and \(f_1(b_1),f)2(b_1),\dots, f_1(b_n)\), \(f_2(b_n)\) and \(c\) and \(C\) are arbitrary real constants subject to the condition \(c> 0\). The proof of the above statement modifies a proof by H. Grunsky of Bieberbach's result. The authors also show how all proper holomorphic mappings to the unit disc are generated via the rational function \(R\).
