Conformal Transformation

Alternate names

angle-preserving transformation | biholomorphic function | biholomorphic map | biholomorphic transformation | conformal map | conformal transformation

Basic definition

A conformal mapping is a transformation in the complex plane that preserves local angles.

Detailed definition

A conformal mapping, also called a conformal map, conformal transformation, angle-preserving transformation, or biholomorphic map, is a transformation w = f(z) that preserves local angles. An analytic function is conformal at any point where it has a nonzero derivative. Conversely, any conformal mapping of a complex variable which has continuous partial derivatives is analytic. Conformal mapping is extremely important in complex analysis, as well as in many areas of physics and engineering. A mapping that preserves the magnitude of angles, but not their orientation is called an isogonal mapping.
