Example of a homeomorphism of a plane which fixes unit circle point wise
$begingroup$
What would a non trivial example of a homeomorphism of a plane which fixes unit circle point wise. If I take
begin{equation}
h(x,y)=begin{cases}
(x,y)& text{$(x,y)in S^1$}\
(x+2,y+2) & text{elsewhere}
end{cases}
end{equation}
Is this a homeomorphism?

Yes Right!! I am not able to think of such homeomorphisms, any help is appreciated.

How about defining a suitable function $g:Bbb R^2to Bbb R^+$ which is constant on circles centred at the origin and consider $f(x,y)=g(x,y)(x,y)$.

Take the flow of a bounded smooth vector field that vanishes on the circle.

@WilliamElliot no. His example $(x,y)mapsto (x^2+y^2)^{-1/4}(x,y)$ works.
