The Cauchy inequality states that for a complex-valued function , if on the circle , then:
for any . This is easily extendible to Liouville’s theorem.
Proof
From Cauchy’s integral formula for derivatives:
We define :
And want to bound, for :
Then by the ML inequality, where is the length of :
As given above.
