In mathematics, Hardy's theorem is a result in complex analysis describing the behavior of holomorphic functions.

Let be a holomorphic function on the open ball centered at zero and radius in the complex plane, and assume that is not a constant function. If one defines

for then this function is strictly increasing and is a convex function of .
