Koebe function
From HandWiki
The function
$$w=f(z)=f_\theta(z)=\frac{z}{(1-e^{i\theta}z)^2}=z+\sum_{n=2}^\infty ne^{i(n-1)\theta}z^n,$$
where $\theta\in[0,2\pi)$. This function was first studied by P. Koebe [1]. The Koebe function maps the disc $|z|<1$ onto the $w$-plane with a slit along the ray starting at the point $-e^{-i\theta}/4$, its extension containing the point $w=0$. The Koebe function is an extremal function in a number of problems in the theory of univalent functions (cf. Bieberbach conjecture; Univalent function).
