Let u be a subharmonic function in D={|z|<1}. There exist an absolute constant C and an analytic function f in D such that \int_D |u(z)-log|f(z)|| dm(z)<C where m denotes the plane Lebesgue measure. We also consider uniform approximation.
Answering a question of A.Zygmund in \cite{MR} G.MacLane and L.Rubel described boundedness of $L_2$-norm w.r.t. the argument of $\log |B|$, where $B$ is a Blaschke product. We generalize their results in several directions. We describe growth of $p$th means, $p\in(1, \infty)$, of subharmonic functions bounded from above in the unit disc. Necessary and sufficient conditions are formulated in terms of the complete measure (of a subharmonic function) in the sense of A.Grishin. We also prove sharp estimates of the growth of $p$th means of analytic and subharmonic functions of finite order in the u…
General estimates from below of holomorphic and subharmonic functions play one of the key roles in the theory of growth of holomorphic and subharmonic functions and in general in the theory of potential. At the same time, the most diverse technical apparatus was often used for this. In one of our recent papers, we showed in fairly general cases that in fact such a wide set of tools is not required. The classic Harnack distance is almost always enough. In this article, we will illustrate how this works in the cases of the unit disc in the complex plane.
Let $u\not\equiv -\infty$ be a subharmonic function on the complex plane $\mathbb C$. In 2016, we obtained a result on the existence of an entire function $f\neq 0$ satisfying the estimate $\log|f|\leq {\sf B}_u$ on $\mathbb C$, where functions ${\sf B}_u$ are integral averages of $u$ for rapidly shrinking disks as it approaches infinity. We give another equivalent version of this result with $\log |f|\leq u$ outside a very small exceptional set if $u$ is of finite order.
Let $M$ be a subharmonic function on a domain $D$ in the complex plane $\mathbb C$ with the Riesz measure $ν_M$. Let $f$ be a non-zero holomorphic function on $D$ such that $\log |f|\leq M$ on $D$ and the function $f$ vanish on a sequence ${\tt Z}=\{{\tt z}_k\}_{k=1,2, \dots}\subset D$ {\large(}$u\not\equiv -\infty$ be a subharmonic function on $D$ with the Riesz measure or the mass distribution $ν_u$, and $u\leq M$ on $D$ resp.{\large)}. Then restrictions on the growth of the Riesz measure $ν_M$ of the function $M$ near the boundary of the domain $D$ entail certain restrictions on the distrib…
Given two compact sets, $E$ and $F$, on the unit circle, we study the class of subharmonic functions on the unit disk which can grow at the direction of $E$ and $F$ (sets of singularities) at different rate. The main result concerns the Blaschke-type condition for the Riesz measure of such functions. The optimal character of such condition is demonstrated.
Let $E$ be a closed set on the unit circle. We find a Blaschke-type condition, optimal in a sense of the order, on the Riesz measure of a subharmonic function $v$ in the unit disk with a certain growth at the direction of $E$. In particular case when $E$ is a finite set, and $v=\log|f|$ with an analytic function $f$, our result agrees with the recent one by A. Borichev, L. Golinskii and S. Kupin. An application to contractions close to unitary operators in the Hilbert space is given.
Additional integral inequalities are obtained for integrals of the differences of subharmonic functions by Borel measures on balls in a multidimensional Euclidean space. These integrals are still estimated from above through the Nevanlinna characteristic and various characteristics of the Borel measure and its support. All the results are also new for logarithms of modules of meromorphic functions on discs in the complex plane. Integration by Borel measures with a support on fractal sets is allowed, and estimates in these cases are given by the Hausdorff measure and the Hausdorff content for t…
Let $M$\/ be a subharmonic function with Riesz measure $μ_M$ on the unit disk $\mathbb D$ in the complex plane $\mathbb C$. Let $f$ be a nonzero holomorphic function on $\mathbb D$ such that $f$ vanishes on ${\sf Z}\subset \mathbb D$, and satisfies $|f| \leq \exp M$ on $\mathbb D$. Then restrictions on the growth of $μ_M$ near the boundary of $D$ imply certain restrictions on the distribution of $\sf Z$. We give a quantitative study of this phenomenon in terms of special non-radial test functions constructed using $ρ$-trigonometrically convex functions.
Let $AL^{2}_ϕ(\mathbb{D})$ denote the closed subspace of $L^{2}(\mathbb{D},e^{-2ϕ}dλ)$ consisting of holomorphic functions in the unit disc ${\mathbb D}$. For certain class of subharmonic funcions $ϕ: {\mathbb D}\rightarrow{\mathbb D}$, we prove upper pointwise estimate for the Bergman kernel for $AL^{2}_ϕ(\mathbb{D})$
Let $f$ be a nonzero holomorphic function in the unit ball $\mathbb B$ of the $n$-dimensional complex Euclidean space $\mathbb C^n$ such that the function $f$ vanishes on the set ${\sf Z}\subset \mathbb B$ and satisfies the constraint $|f|\leq \exp M$ on $\mathbb B$, where $M\not\equiv \pm \infty$ is $δ$-subharmonic function on $\mathbb B$ with Riesz charge $μ_M$. We give a scale of integral uniform constraints from above on the distribution of the set ${\sf Z}$ via the charge $ν_M$ in terms of $(2n-2)$-Hausdorff measure of the set $\sf Z$, as well as test convex radial functions and $ρ$-subsp…
We study proper rational maps from the unit disk to balls in higher dimensions. After gathering some known results, we study the moduli space of unitary equivalence classes of polynomial proper maps from the disk to a ball, and we establish a normal form for these equivalence classes. We also prove that all rational proper maps from the disk to a ball are homotopic in target dimension at least $2$.
Using the Bers isomorphism theorem for Teichmuller spaces of punctured Riemann surfaces and some of their other complex geometric features, we prove a general theorem on maximization of homogeneous polynomial (in fact, more general holomorphic) coefficient functionals $J(f) = J(a_{m_1}, a_{m_2},\dots, a_{m_n}) $ on some classes of univalent functions in the unit disk naturally connected with the canonical class $S$. The given functional $J$ is lifted to the Teichmuller space $\mathbf T_1$ of the punctured disk $\mathbb{D}_{*} = \{0 < |z| < 1\}$ which is biholomorphically equivalent to the Bers…
We extend the classical Schwarz-Pick inequality to the class of harmonic mappings between the unit disk and a Jordan domain with given perimeter. It is intriguing that the extremals in this case are certain harmonic diffeomorphisms between the unit disk and a convex domain that solve the Beltrami equation of second order.
We give a sharp bound for the Lebesgue constant associated to Leja sequences in the complex unit disk, confirming a conjecture made by Calvi and Phung in 2011
In this note, we discuss the coefficient regions of analytic self-maps of the unit disk with a prescribed fixed point. As an application, we solve the Fekete-Szegő problem for normalized concave functions with a prescribed pole in the unit disk.
We prove that, for any finite Blaschke product $w=B(z)$ in the unit disk, the corresponding Riemann surface over the $w$--plane contains a one-sheeted disk of the radius $0.5$. Moreover, it contains a unit one-sheeted disk with a radial slit. We apply this result to obtain a universal sharp lower estimate of the Bloch seminorm for finite Blaschke products.
We prove some sharp inequalities for complex harmonic functions on the unit disk. The results extend a M. Riesz conjugate function theorem and some well-known estimates for holomorphic functions. We apply some of results to the isoperimetric inequality for harmonic mappings.
Concrete sharp constants in a pointwise estimate of the gradient of a harmonic function in the unit disk are obtained under the assumption that function belong to Hardy space $h^p$, $p\ge 1$. This generalizes some recent result of Maz'ya & Kresin and a result of Colonna related to the Bloch constant of harmonic mappings of the unit disk into itself.
We show that if $\{M_t\}_{t\in Δ}$ is a polarized family of compact Kähler manifolds over the open unit disk $Δ$, if $N$ is a Riemannian manifold of nonpositive complexified sectional curvature, and if $\{ϕ_t:M_t\to N\}_{t\in Δ}$ is a smooth family of pluriharmonic maps, then the Dirichlet energy $E(ϕ_t)$ is a subharmonic function of $t\inΔ$.
The aim of this paper is to obtain the Schwarz-Pick type inequality for $α$-harmonic functions $f$ in the unit disk and get estimates on the coefficients of $f$. As an application, a Landau type theorem of $α$-harmonic functions is established.
We first give an exposition on holomorphic isometries from the Poincaré disk to polydisks and from the Poincaré disk to the product of the Poincaré disk with a complex unit ball. As an application, we provide an example of proper holomorphic map from the unit disk to the complex unit ball that is irrational, algebraic and holomorphic on a neighborhood of the closed unit disk. We also include some new results on holomorphic isometries.
We prove some isoperimetric type inequalities for real harmonic functions in the unit disk belonging to the Hardy space $h^p$, $p>1$ and for complex harmonic functions in $h^4$. The results extend some recent results on the area. Further we discus some Riesz type results for holomorphic functions.
We continue the study of analytic functions in the unit disk of finite order with arbitrary set of singular points on the unit circle, introduced in \cite{FG}. The main focus here is made upon the inverse problem: the existence of a function from this class with a given singular set and zero set subject to certain Blaschke-type condition. We also discuss the local analog of the main result from \cite{FG} similar to the standard local Blaschke condition for analytic and bounded functions in the unit disk.
We study quasiconformal mappings of the unit disk that have planar extension with controlled distortion. For these mappings we prove a bound for the modulus of continuity of the inverse map, which somewhat surprisingly is almost as good as for global quasiconformal maps. Furthermore, we give examples which improve the known bounds for the three point property of generalized quasidisks. Finally, we establish optimal regularity of such maps when the image of the unit disk has cusp type singularities.
In this paper we define Gevrey polyanalytic classes of order N on the unit disk D and we obtain for these classes a characteristic expansion into N-analytic polynomials on suitable neighborhoods of D. As an application of our main theorem, we perform for the Gevrey polyanalytic classes of order N on the unit disk D, an analogue to E. M. Dyn'kin's theorem. We also derive, for these classes, their characteristic degree of the best uniform approximation on D by N-analytic polynomials.
We obtain an explicit uniform upper bound for the derivative of a conformal mapping of the unit disk onto a convex domain. This estimate depends only on the outer and inner radii of the domain, and on a curvature radius of its boundary. Its proof is based on a Möbius invariant metric of hyperbolic type, introduced by Kulkarni and Pinkall in 1994.
We consider two parametric families of special functions: One is defined by a power series generalizing the classical Mathieu series, and the other one is a generalized Mathieu type power series involving factorials in its coefficients. Using criteria due to Fejer and Ozaki, we provide sufficient conditions for these functions to be close-to-convex or starlike inside the unit disk, and thus univalent.
We give improvements of estimates of invariant metrics in the normal direction on strictly pseudoconvex domains. Specifically we will give the second term in the expansion of the metrics. This depends on an improved localisation result and estimates in the one variable case. Finally we will give a new characterisation of the unit disk in $\mathbb C$ in terms of the asymptotic behaviour of quotients of invariant metrics.
We obtain new characterizations of Bergman and Bloch spaces on the unit disc involving equivalent (quasi)-norms of these spaces.Our results are in spirit of estimates obtained by Fefferman and Stein for HArdy spaces in R^n.
Let the function $φ$ be holomorphic in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$ and let $φ(\mathbb{D})\subset \mathbb{D}$. We study the level sets and the critical points of the hyperbolic derivative of $φ$, $$|D_φ(z)|:=\frac{(1-|z|^2)|φ'(z)|}{1-|φ(z)|^2}.$$ In particular, we show how the Schwarzian derivative of $φ$ reveals the nature of the critical points.
We study nonlinear resolvents of holomorphic generators of one-parameter semigroups acting in the open unit disk. The class of nonlinear resolvents can be studied in the framework of geometric function theory because it consists of univalent functions. In this paper we establish distortion and covering results, find order of starlikeness and of strong starlikeness of resolvents. This provides that any resolvent admits quasiconformal extension to the complex plane $\C$. In addition, we obtain some characteristics of semigroups generated by these resolvents.
In this paper we completely characterize those weighted Hardy spaces that are Poletsky--Stessin Hardy spaces $H^p_u$. We also provide a reduction of $H^\infty$ problems to $H^p_u$ problems and demonstrate how such a reduction can be used to make shortcuts in the proofs of the interpolation theorem and corona problem.
The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we establish the representation formula and the uniqueness of the solutions to a class of inhomogeneous biharmonic Dirichlet problems, and then prove the bi-Lipschitz continuity of the solutions.
The conformal mapping $f(z)=(z+1)^2 $ from $\mathbb{D}$ onto the standard cardioid has a homeomorphic extension of finite distortion to entire $\mathbb{R}^2 .$ We study the optimal regularity of such extensions, in terms of the integrability degree of the distortion and of the derivatives, and these for the inverse. We generalize all outcomes to the case of conformal mappings from $\mathbb{D}$ onto cardioid-type domains.
In this paper we mainly discuss three things. First, there is no canonical norm on the space $H^p_u(\mathbb{D})$. Second, we improve the weak-$*$ convergence of the measures $μ_{u,r}$. Third, the dilations $f_t$ of the function $f\in H^p_u(\mathbb{D})$ converge to $f$ in $H^p_u$-norm and hence the polynomials are dense in $H^p_u(\mathbb{D})$.
In this paper we give some applications of a lemma of Babalola and Opoola \cite{BO}, which is a classical extension of an earlier one by Lewandowski, Miller and Zlotkiewicz \cite{LMZ}. The applications were given via a new generalization of some well-known subclasses of univalent functions, and they unify many known results.
In this paper we extend Rado-Choquet-Kneser theorem for the mappings with weak homeomorphic Lipschitz boundary data and Dini's smooth boundary but without restriction on the convexity of image domain, provided that the Jacobian satisfies a certain boundary condition. The proof is based on a recent extension of Rado-Choquet-Kneser theorem by Alessandrini and Nesi \cite{ale} and it is used the approximation principle.
Suppose that $f$ is a $K$-quasiconformal self-mapping of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, which satisfies the following: $(1)$ the biharmonic equation $Δ(Δf)=g$ $(g\in \mathcal{C}(\overline{\mathbb{D}}))$, (2) the boundary condition $Δf=φ$ ($φ\in\mathcal{C}(\mathbb{T})$ and $\mathbb{T}$ denotes the unit circle), and $(3)$ $f(0)=0$. The purpose of this paper is to prove that $f$ is Lipschitz continuos, and, further, it is bi-Lipschitz continuous when $\|g\|_{\infty}$ and $\|φ\|_{\infty}$ are small enough. Moreover, the estimates are asymptotically sharp as $K\to 1$, $\|g\|_{\infty}\to 0$ and $\|φ\|_…
The aim of this paper is to establish some properties of solutions to the Dirichlet-Neumann problem: $(\partial_z\partial_{\overline{z}})^2 w=g$ in the unit disc $\ID$, $w=γ_0$ and $\partial_ν\partial_z\partial_{\overline{z}}w=γ$ on $\mathbb{T}$ (the unit circle), $\frac{1}{2πi}\int_{\mathbb{T}}w_{ζ\overlineζ}(ζ)\frac{dζ}ζ=c$, where $\partial_ν$ denotes differentiation in the outward normal direction. More precisely, we obtain Schwarz-Pick type inequalities and Landau type theorem for solutions to the Dirichlet-Neumann problem.
We study uniform estimates for the family of fundamental Lagrange polynomials associated with any Leja sequence for the complex unit disk. The main result claims that all these polynomials are uniformly bounded on the disk, i.e. independently on the range $N$ of the associated $N$-Leja section. We also give an improved estimate for special values of $N$. As a first application, we get an analogous estimate for any compact subset whose boundary is an Alper-smooth Jordan curve. We then deal with some applications in multivariate Lagrange interpolation. We first give some estimates of the Lebesgu…
In this paper we study an algebraic and topological structure inside the following sets of special functions: Bloch functions defined on the open unit disk that are unbounded and analytic functions of bounded type defined a Banach algebra E into E, which are not Lorch-analytic.
