Suppose a complex-valued function $f$ is analytic in the domain $D$ where $D$ is the disk $|z| < R$. If $f(0) = i$, and $|f(z)| \le 1$, what is $f$? I'm thinking that $f$ is just the constant function $f(z) = i$, but I'm not sure how to justify this.
Find all functions analytic in $D \subset \mathbb{C}$.

Your answer is correct and follows from the maximum principle: You have $|f(z)|=1$ for all $z \in U:=\{w \in \mathbb{C}; |w|
