The Schwarz-Christoffel Transformation

 

Chapter 11. Show that the mapping [Graphics:sc16.txtgr1.gif] maps the upper half plane
onto the domain consisting of quadrants one, two and three slit along the segment from z = 0 to z = i.
The Schwarz-Christoffel formula for [Graphics:sc16.txtgr2.gif] is:

[Graphics:sc16.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:sc16.txtgr3.gif]

Integrate to obtain:

[Graphics:sc16.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:sc16.txtgr5.gif]

The coefficients are [Graphics:sc16.txtgr6.gif], and we obtain

[Graphics:sc16.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:sc16.txtgr7.gif]

A graph for the solution is:
