In the proof of the local normal form we write F(z)=zkg(z)F(z) = z^k g(z) with g(0)≠0g(0) \ne 0 and need a holomorphic hh near 00 with hk=gh^k = g. Why does hh exist?

Write reduce_tau(tau) that takes a complex number with positive imaginary part and returns the equivalent point of the fundamental domain {∣Re⁡τ∣≤12, ∣τ∣≥1}\{|\operatorname{Re}\tau| \le \frac12,\ |\tau| \ge 1\}, by repeating: translate by an integer to make ∣Re⁡τ∣≤12|\operatorname{Re}\tau| \le \frac12; if ∣τ∣<1|\tau| < 1, replace τ\tau by −1/τ-1/\tau.
