Problem Statement

For a given α>0\alpha >0 let us consider the regular, non-vanishing f(z)f(z) maps on the unit disc {z<1}\{ |z|<1 \} for which f(0)=1f(0)=1 and Rezf(z)f(z)>α\mathrm{Re}\, z\frac{f'(z)}{f(z)}>-\alpha (z<1|z|<1). Show that the range of g(z)=1(1z)2αg(z)=\frac{1}{(1-z)^{2\alpha}} contains the range of all other such functions. Here we consider that regular branch of g(z)g(z) for which g(0)=1g(0)=1.
