Definition:Inverse Hyperbolic Tangent/Complex/Principal Branch

Definition
The principal branch of the complex inverse hyperbolic tangent function is defined as:
 * $\forall z \in \C: \map {\Tanh^{-1} } z := \dfrac 1 2 \, \map \Ln {\dfrac {1 + z} {1 - z} }$

where $\Ln$ denotes the principal branch of the complex natural logarithm.
