How to prove $f(z)=z+frac{1}{z}$ maps circles with $r> 1$ onto ellipses of the form $$frac{x^2}{(r+frac{1}{r})^2}+frac{y^2}{(r-frac{1}{r})^2}=1?$$ It is simple to understand the mapping to part. You just replace $z$ with $re^{Itheta}$ which simplifies to $$ k(theta)=f(re^{itheta})=re^{itheta}+frac{1}{re^{itheta}}=(r+frac{1}{r})cos(theta)+i(r-frac{1}{r})sin(theta)$$ which is the parameterization of the ellipse given above. However, I do not understand how it maps onto. I tried to produce a right inverse and got $h(y)=-iln(frac{y+sqrt{y^2-4}}{2r})$ and $g(y)=-iln(frac{y-sqrt{y^2-4}}{2r})$ which works but is not a real number. I believe this is a problem. How would I produce a correct right inverse or prove it is onto?

Let $S(r)$ denote the circle with center $0$ and radius $r ne 1$ and $E(r)$ the ellipse defined in your question. You have shown that $I(r) = f(S(r)) subset E(r)$.



For $M subset mathbb{C}$ define $-M = { -z mid z in M}$. We have $S(r) = -S(r)$ and $E(r) = -E(r)$.



We have $f(-z) = -f(z)$ which implies $f(-M) = -f(M)$ for $M subset mathbb{C} setminus { 0 }$. Hence $I(r) = f(S(r)) = f(-S(r)) = -f(S(r)) = -I(r)$.



Now assume that $I(r) ne E(r)$. Choose $w in E(r) setminus I(r)$. We have $w notin I(r)$, hence also $-w notin -I(r) = I(r)$. Therefore $I(r) subset E'(r) = E(r) setminus { w,-w }$. The set $E'(r)$ has two connected components $E_i(r)$ which satisfy $E_1(r) = -E_2(r)$.



$I(r)$ is the continuous image of the connected set $S(r)$, hence it is connected and we conclude that $I(r) subset E_i(r)$ either for $i=1$ or $i=2$, wl.o.g. for $i=1$. But then also $I(r) = -I(r) subset - E_1(r) = E_2(r)$ which is impossible.



Therefore we must have $I(r) = E(r)$.

    Let $z=x+iy$ with $x^2+y^2=r^2$.



    We have



    $$z+frac1z=x+iy+frac{x-iy}{x^2+y^2}=xleft(1+frac1{r^2}right)+iyleft(1-frac1{r^2}right)=u+iv.$$



    From this,



    $$left(frac{u}{1+dfrac1{r^2}}right)^2+left(frac{v}{1-dfrac1{r^2}}right)^2=r^2.$$



    Note that the transformation is a mere scaling.

      For $M subset mathbb{C}$ define $-M = { -z mid z in M}$. We have $S(r) = -S(r)$ and $E(r) = -E(r)$.

      Now assume that $I(r) ne E(r)$. Choose $w in E(r) setminus I(r)$. We have $w notin I(r)$, hence also $-w notin -I(r) = I(r)$. Therefore $I(r) subset E'(r) = E(r) setminus { w,-w }$. The set $E'(r)$ has two connected components $E_i(r)$ which satisfy $E_1(r) = -E_2(r)$.



      $I(r)$ is the continuous image of the connected set $S(r)$, hence it is connected and we conclude that $I(r) subset E_i(r)$ either for $i=1$ or $i=2$, wl.o.g. for $i=1$. But then also $I(r) = -I(r) subset - E_1(r) = E_2(r)$ which is impossible.

              Let $z=x+iy$ with $x^2+y^2=r^2$.



              We have



              $$z+frac1z=x+iy+frac{x-iy}{x^2+y^2}=xleft(1+frac1{r^2}right)+iyleft(1-frac1{r^2}right)=u+iv.$$



              From this,



              $$left(frac{u}{1+dfrac1{r^2}}right)^2+left(frac{v}{1-dfrac1{r^2}}right)^2=r^2.$$



              Note that the transformation is a mere scaling.
