The Schwarz-Christoffel Transformation

 

Chapter 11. Show that the mapping [Graphics:sc14.txtgr1.gif]
upper half plane onto the exterior of an infinite rectangle located in quadrants one and two.
The Schwarz-Christoffel formula for [Graphics:sc14.txtgr2.gif] is:

[Graphics:sc14.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:sc14.txtgr3.gif]

Integrate to obtain:

[Graphics:sc14.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:sc14.txtgr5.gif]
[Graphics:sc14.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:sc14.txtgr6.gif]

This is one, formula for the integral. However, we will use the following form of the integral to continue the computations.

[Graphics:sc14.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:sc14.txtgr7.gif]

The coefficients are [Graphics:sc14.txtgr8.gif], and we obtain

[Graphics:sc14.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:sc14.txtgr9.gif]

A graph for the solution is:
