Let $f$ be a holomorphic function on the strip $\{z\in C: -\alpha<Im z<\alpha\}, \alpha > 0$, belonging to the class $H(\alpha,-\alpha;\epsilon)$ defined below. It is shown that there exist holomorphic functions $w_1$ on $\{z\in C: 0<Im z…
The Bloch-Landau Theorem is one of the basic results in the geometric theory of holomorphic functions. It establishes that the image of the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ under a holomorphic function $f$ (such that $f(0)=0$ and $f'(0)=1$)…
We describe bounded, holomorphic functions on the complex 2-disc, that admit meromorphic extension to a larger 2-disc. This solves a conjecture of Bickel, Knese, Pascoe and Sola. The key technical ingredient is an old theorem of Zariski…
We study the convolution of functions of the form \[ f_\alpha (z) := \dfrac{\left( \frac{1 + z}{1 - z} \right)^\alpha - 1}{2 \alpha}, \] which map the open unit disk of the complex plane onto polygons of 2 edges when $\alpha\in(0,1)$. We…
In most classical holomorphic function spaces on the unit disk in which the polynomials are dense, a function $f$ can be approximated in norm by its dilates $f_r(z):=f(rz)~(r<1)$, in other words, $\lim_{r\to1^-}\|f_r-f\|=0$. We construct a…
We prove that every measurable function $f:\,[0,a]\to\mathbb{C}$ such that $|f|=1$ a.e. on $[0,a]$ is an extreme point of the unit ball of the Lorentz space $\Lambda(\varphi)$ on $[0,a]$ whenever $\varphi$ is a not linear, strictly…
In the present paper, we study the shifted hypergeometric function $f(z)=z\Gauss(a,b;c;z)$ for real parameters with $0<a\le b\le c$ and its variant $g(z)=z\Gauss(a,b;c;z^2).$ Our first purpose is to solve the range problems for $f$ and $g$…
We provide results of uniqueness for holomorphic functions in the Nevanlinna class bridging those previously obtained by Hayman and Lyubarskii-Seip. Namely, we propose certain classes of hyperbolically separated sequences in the disk, in…
We establish the asymptotic sharpness of a Nikolskii type inequality proved by A. Baranov and R. Zarouf for rational functions $f$ in the Wiener algebra of absolutely convergent Fourier series, with at most $n$ poles, all lying outside the…
Recently, it is proven that positive harmonic functions defined in the unit disc or the upper half-plane in $\mathbb{C}$ are contractions in hyperbolic metrics \cite{Markovic}. Furthermore, the same result does not hold in higher dimensions…
We investigate the distance function $\boldsymbol{\delta}_{K}^{\phi}$ from an arbitrary closed subset $ K $ of a~finite-dimensional Banach space $ (\mathbf{R}^{n}, \phi) $, equipped with a uniformly convex $\mathcal{C}^{2}$-norm $ \phi $.…
The purpose of this article is twofold. First, we prove that the squeezing function approaches 1 near strongly pseudoconvex boundary points of bounded domains in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$. Second, we show that the squeezing function approaches 1…
Let $\mathcal{G}(\alpha)$ denote the family of functions $ f(z)$ in the open unit disk $\mathbb D :=\{z\in\mathbb{C}: |z|<1\}$ that satisfy $ f(0)=0= f'(0)=1$ and \[\Re \left(1+ \dfrac{z f''(z)}{ f'(z)}\right)<1+\dfrac{\alpha}{2} , \quad…
We study convex sets C of finite (but non-zero volume in Hn and En. We show that the intersection of any such set with the ideal boundary of Hn has Minkowski (and thus Hausdorff) dimension of at most (n-1)/2, and this bound is sharp. In the…
We consider Banach spaces E of functions holomorphic on the open unit disc D such that the unilateral shift S and the backward shift T are bounded on E. Assuming that the spectra of S and T are equal to the closed unit disc we discuss the…
Given a frequency $\lambda = (\lambda_n)$ and $\ell \ge 0$, we introduce the scale of Banach spaces $H_{\infty,\ell}^{\lambda}[Re > 0]$ of holomorphic functions $f$ on the open right half-plane $[Re > 0]$, which satisfy $(A)$ the growth…
A Bernstein-type inequality in the standard Hardy space H^{2} of the unit disc \mathbb{D}=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:\,|z|<1\}, for rational functions in \mathbb{D} having at most n poles all outside of \frac{1}{r}\mathbb{D}, 0
A well-known conjecture of Caratheodory states that the number of umbilic points on a closed convex surface in ${\mathbb E}^3$ must be greater than one. In this paper we prove this for $C^{3+\alpha}$-smooth surfaces. The Conjecture is first…
Let $A^2(D)$ be the Bergman space over the open unit disk $D$ in the complex plane. Korenblum conjectured that there is an absolute constant $c \in (0,1)$ such that whenever $|f(z)|\le |g(z)|$ in the annulus $c<|z|<1$ then $||f(z)|| \le…
