Fundamental normality test

In complex analysis, a mathematical discipline, the fundamental normality test gives sufficient conditions to test the normality of a family of analytic functions.

Statement of theorem

Let \mathcal{F} be a family of analytic functions defined on a domain  \Omega . If there are two fixed complex numbers a and b that are omitted from the range of every ƒ  \mathcal{F}, then  \mathcal{F} is a normal family on  \Omega .

The proof relies on properties of the elliptic modular function and can be found here: J. L. Schiff (1993). Normal Families. Springer-Verlag. ISBN 0-387-97967-0.
