The Bergman number of a plane domain

Let $D$ be a domain in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$. The Hardy number of $D$, which first introduced by Hansen, is the maximal number $h(D)$ in $[0,+\infty]$ such that $f$ belongs to the classical Hardy space $H^p (\mathbb{D})$ whenever $0<p<h(D)$ and $f$ is holomorphic on the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ with values in $D$. As an analogue notion to the Hardy number of a domain $D$ in $\mathbb{C}$, we introduce the Bergman number of $D$ and we denote it by $b(D)$. Our main result is that, if $D$ is regular, then $h(D)=b(D)$. This generalizes earlier work by the author and Karamanlis for simply connected domains. The Bergman number $b(D)$ is the maximal number in $[0,+\infty]$ such that $f$ belongs to the weighted Bergman space $A^p_{\alpha} (\mathbb{D})$ whenever $p>0$ and $\alpha>-1$ satisfy $0<\frac{p}{\alpha+2}<b(D)$ and $f$ is holomorphic on $\mathbb{D}$ with values in $D$. We also establish several results about Hardy spaces and weighted Bergman spaces and we give a new characterization of the Hardy number and thus of the Bergman number of a regular domain with respect to the harmonic measure.
