Let $m(G)$ be the infimum of the volumes of all open subgroups of a unimodular locally compact group $G$. Suppose integrable functions $\phi_1 , \phi_2 \colon G \to [0,1]$ satisfy $\| \phi_1 \| \leq \| \phi_2 \|$ and $\| \phi_1 \| + \|…

We prove that every open Riemann surface admits a proper embedding into $\mathbb{R}^4$ by harmonic functions. This reduces by one the previously known embedding dimension in this framework, dating back to a theorem by Greene and Wu from…

A compact manifold is called Bieberbach if it carries a flat Riemannian metric. Bieberbach manifolds satisfy an isosystolic inequality by a general and fundamental result of M. Gromov. In dimension 3, there exist four classes of…

Given an area-preserving diffeomorphism of the closed unit disk which is a rotation near the boundary, one can naturally define an "action" function on the disk which agrees with the rotation number on the boundary. The Calabi invariant of…

We study locally univalent functions $f$ analytic in the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane such that $|{f"(z)/f'(z)}|(1-|z|^2)\leq 1+C(1-|z|)$ holds for all $z\in\mathbb{D}$, for some $0<C<\infty$. If $C\leq 1$, then $f$ is…

We introduce a family of variational functionals for spinor fields on a compact Riemann surface $M$ that can be used to find close-to-conformal immersions of $M$ into $\mathbb{R}^3$ in a prescribed regular homotopy class. Numerical…

Using results from theory of operators on a Hilbert space, we prove approximation results for matrix-valued holomorphic functions on the unit disc and the unit bidisc. The essential tools are the theory of unitary dilation of a contraction…

A meromorphic inner function is a bounded holomorphic function in the upper half-plane which is unimodular on the real line and extends to a meromorphic function in the whole complex plane. The argument of a meromorphic inner function on…

A bi-univalent function is a univalent function defined on the unit disk with its inverse also univalent on the unit disk. Estimates for the initial coefficients are obtained for bi-univalent functions belonging to certain classes defined…

We reformulate the problem of finding conformal immersions of closed Riemannian surfaces in the language of the $h$-principle and we prove that the inclusion from the space of smooth conformal immersions to the space of immersions induces a…

In this article we consider functions $f$ meromorphic in the unit disk. We give an elementary proof for a condition that is sufficient for the univalence of such functions. This condition simplifies and generalizes known conditions. We…

For a nonconstant holomorphic map between projective Riemann surfaces with conformal metrics, we consider invariant Schwarzian derivatives and projective Schwarzian derivatives of general virtual order. We show that these two quantities are…

We study the so-called integral means spectrum for univalent functions on the unit disk. Using an inequality of Prawitz (generalizing the classical area theorem of Gronwall), we find -- by applying a Moebius mapping to lift the result to…

In this paper, we prove a uniform approximation theorem with interpolation for complete conformal minimal surfaces with finite total curvature in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ $(n\ge 3)$. As application, we obtain a Mittag-Leffler type…

We prove a uniform estimate, valid for every closed Riemann surface of genus at least two, that bounds the distance of any quadratic differential to the finite dimensional space of holomorphic quadratic differentials in terms of its…

Recently the author presented a new approach to solving the coefficient problems for various classes of holomorphic functions $f(z) = \sum\limits_0^\infty c_n z^n$, not necessarily univalent. This approach is based on lifting the given…

A normalized analytic function f is shown to be univalent in the open unit disk D if its second coefficient is sufficiently small and relates to its Schwarzian derivative through a certain inequality. New criteria for analytic functions to…

The aim of this paper is to investigate the differential geometry of immersed surfaces in three-dimensional normed spaces from the viewpoint of affine differential geometry. We endow the surface with a useful Riemannian metric which is…
