Problem
Consider the map Φ(u,v)=(x,y) with x=u2−v2, y=2uv, applied to the quarter-disc D={(u,v):u>0,v>0,u2+v2≤1}.
((a)) Compute the Jacobian matrix DΦ and its determinant, and use the inverse function theorem to say at which points of the plane Φ is locally invertible.
((b)) Writing u=rcosθ, v=rsinθ, show that Φ maps D, with the origin removed, bijectively onto the upper half of the unit disc H={(x,y):x2+y2≤1,y≥0} with the origin removed (a shared boundary ray may be disregarded as it has zero content).
((c)) Use Φ to evaluate I=∬Hx2+y2dxdy by excising a small disc of radius ϵ about the origin from D, applying the change-of-variables theorem on the remaining region, and letting ϵ→0.
