Let $(\M^n, g)$ be a $n$ dimensional, complete ( compact or noncompact) Riemannian manifold whose Ricci curvature is bounded from below by a constant $-K \le 0$. Let $u$ be a positive solution of the heat equation on $\M^n \times (0,…

In this article we study algebraic stability for rational skew products in two dimensions $\phi : X \dashrightarrow X$, i.e. maps of the form $\phi(x, y) = (\phi_1(x), \phi_2(x, y))$. We prove that when $X$ is a birationally ruled surface…

For analytic functions f(z) in the closed unit disk \bar{U}, two boundary points z_1 and z_2 such that \alpha = (f'(z_1)+f'(z_2))/2 in f'(U) are considered. The object of the present paper is to discuss some interesting conditions for f(z)…

We describe a generalization of the notion of a Hilbert space model of a function in the Schur class of the bidisc. This generalization is well adapted to the investigation of boundary behavior at a mild singularity of the function on the…

Examples of discontinuous functions already appear in the work of Euler, Abel, Dirichlet, Fourier, and Bolzano. A ground-breaking discovery due to Baire was that many discontinuous functions are well-behaved in that they are the pointwise…

High-order derivatives of analytic functions are expressible as Cauchy integrals over circular contours, which can very effectively be approximated, e.g., by trapezoidal sums. Whereas analytically each radius r up to the radius of…

We discuss various theorems about bounded analytic functions on the bidisk that were proved using operator theory.

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote the set of all analytic functions $f$ in the unit disk $\ID=\{z:\,|z|<1\}$ of the form $f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_nz^n.$ Let $\mathcal{U}$ denote the set of all $f\in \mathcal{A}$, $f(z)/z\neq 0$ and satisfying…

We prove a special case of a dynamical analogue of the classical Mordell-Lang conjecture. In particular, let $\phi$ be a rational function with no superattracting periodic points other than exceptional points. If the coefficients of $\phi$…

Radius constants for several classes of analytic functions on the unit disk are obtained. These include the radius of starlikeness of a positive order, radius of parabolic starlikeness, radius of Bernoulli lemniscate starlikeness, and…

We show that Caratheodory's conjecture, on umbilical points of closed convex surfaces, may be reformulated in terms of the existence of at least one umbilic in the graphs of functions f: R^2-->R whose gradient decays uniformly faster than…

We study the asymptotic behavior of Pick functions, analytic functions which take the upper half plane to itself. We show that if a two variable Pick function $f$ has real residues to order $2N-1$ at infinity and the imaginary part of the…
