I am trying to show that

H(z) = int_[0,1] h(t)/(t-z) dt

is continuous.

It is even analytic.

I am stuck at one little place :

First of all, h continuous on [0,1] means |h(t)| <= M for some M.

No it doesn't mean that. It just implies it.

Let |z-z'| < D.

So, | H(z) - H(z') | <= M int_[0,1] (z-z')/[(t-z)(t-z')] <= D*M int_[0,1] 1/[(t-z)(t-z')]

since 1/(t-z) - 1/(t-z') = (z-z')/[(t-z)(t-z')].

But what do I do with int_[0,1] 1/[(t-z)(t-z')]?

Well, you failed to mention what is the domain of H, but I'll assume
that it is C\[0,1]. Let _d_ be the distance from _z_ to [0,1]. Suppose
now that D was chosen such that the distance from each element of the
open disk centered at _z_ with radius D to [0,1] is greater than d/2.
Then, in particular, the distance from z' to [0,1] is greater than d/2.
So, for each _t_ in [0,1], |(t - z)(t - z'| >= d^2/2 and therefore
int_[0,1] |1/(t - z)(t - z') dt <= 2/d^2.
