THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.
In this file we prove several versions of the Phragmen-Lindelöf principle, a version of the maximum modulus principle for an unbounded domain.

In the case of the right half-plane, we prove a version of the Phragmen-Lindelöf principle that is useful for Ilyashenko's proof of the individual finiteness theorem (a polynomial vector field on the real plane has only finitely many limit cycles).
