The paper gives the following characterization of the disc algebra in terms of the argument principle: A continuous function f on the unit circle T extends holomorphically through the unit disc if and only if for each polynomial P such that…

Given a fixed-point free compact holomorphic self-map $f$ on a bounded symmetric domain $D$, which may be infinite dimensional, we establish the existence of a family $\{H(\xi, \lambda)\}_{\lambda >0}$ of convex $f$-invariant domains at a…

We construct a Hilbert holomorphic function space $H$ on the unit disk such that the polynomials are dense in $H$, but the odd polynomials are not dense in the odd functions in $H$. As a consequence, there exists a function $f$ in $H$ that…

Let $n \geq 4$ and let $\Omega$ be a bounded hyperconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$. Let $\varphi$ be a negative exhaustive smooth plurisubharmonic function on $\Omega$. We show that any holomorphic function defined on a connected open…

A theorem of Harald Bohr (1914) states that if f is a holomorphic map from the unit disc into itself, then the sum of absolute values of its Taylor expansion is less than 1 for |z|<1/3. The bound 1/3 is optimal. This result has been…

We show that a fairly arbitrary Frechet space topology on the space of holomorphic functions on a domain controls the topology of uniform convergence on compact sets. In fact it turns out that the result we present can be proved more simply…

Let $\mathcal F$ be either the set of all bounded holomorphic functions or the set of all $m$-homogeneous polynomials on the unit ball of $\ell\_r$. We give a systematic study of the sets of all $u\in\ell\_r$ for which the monomial…

We consider a formal power series in one variable whose coefficients are holomorphic functions in a given multidimensional complex domain. Assume the following two conditions on the series. (C1) The restriction of the series at each point…

In trigonometric series terms all polyharmonic functions inside the unit disk are described. For such functions it is proved the existence of their boundary values on the unit circle in the space of hyperfunctions. The necessary and…

Given a sequence of automorphisms of the polydisk, we show that the associated composition semigroup homomorphisms on the ball of bounded holomorphic functions on the polydisk admit a universal inner function if a certain condition on the…

We investigate in which cases the boundary of a multiply connected wandering domain of an entire function is uniformly perfect. We give a general criterion implying that it is not uniformly perfect. This criterion applies in particular to…

Let $A$ be a square matrix and let $\Omega$ be an open set in the plane containing the spectrum of $A$. We consider the problem of maximizing the operator norm $\|f(A)\|$ amongst all holomorphic functions $f$ from $\Omega$ into the closed…

We consider the space $U(\mathbb T)$ of all continuous functions on the circle $\mathbb T$ with uniformly convergent Fourier series. We show that if $\varphi: \mathbb T\rightarrow\mathbb T$ is a continuous piecewise linear but not linear…

We prove that there is a one-to-one, bounded, holomorphic function on a region $\Omega$ iff $S^{2} - \Omega$ is not totally disconnected. This paper has been withdrawn by the author since Theorem 3 is incorrect.

The general theme of this note is illustrated by the following theorem: Theorem 1. Suppose $K$ is a compact set in the complex plane and 0 belongs to the boundary $\partial K$. Let ${\cal A}(K)$ denote the space of all functions $f$ on $K$…

We give a series of very general sufficient conditions in order to ensure the uniqueness of large solutions for --$\Delta$u + f (x, u) = 0 in a bounded domain $\Omega$ where f : $\Omega$ x R $\rightarrow$ R + is a continuous function, such…

By investigating which level of universality composition operators $C_f$ can have, where the symbol $f$ is given by the restriction of a transcendental entire function to suitable parts of the Fatou set of $f$, this work combines the theory…

Conformal mapping may be the best-known topic in complex analysis. Any simply connected nonempty domain $\Omega$ in the complex plane ${{\mathbb{C}}}$ (assuming $\Omega\ne {{\mathbb{C}}}$) can be mapped bijectively to the unit disk by an…

We show that there is a transcendental meromorphic function with an invariant Baker domain $U$ such that every singular value of $f$ is a super-attracting periodic point. This answers a question of Bergweiler from 1993. We also show that…

We consider the open problem: Does every square-integrable function f on a compact, connected Lie group G have an almost everywhere convergent Fourier series? We prove a general theorem from which it follows that if the integral modulus of…
