Abstract

The purpose of this paper is a pedagogical one. We provide a short and self-contained account of Siegel’s theorem, as improved by Bruno, which states that a holomorphic map of the complex plane can be locally linearized near a fixed point under certain conditions on the multiplier. The main proof is adapted from Bruno’s work.
