A continuous form of Schwarz’s lemma in normed linear spaces
Lawrence A. Harris · Pacific Journal of Mathematics · 1971
Our main result is an inequality which shows that a holomorphic function mapping the open unit ball of one normed linear space into the closed unit ball of another is close to being a linear map when the Frechet derivative of the function at 0 is close to being a surjective isometry.We deduce this result as a corollary of a kind of uniform rotundity at the identity of the sup norm on bounded holomorphic functions mapping the open unit ball of a normed linear space into the same space.
