Let function $f$ be analytic in the unit disk ${\mathbb D}$ and be normalized so that $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots$. In this paper we give sharp bounds of the modulus of its second, third and fourth coefficient, if $f$ satisfies \[…

Let $\Sigma$ denote a closed surface with constant mean curvature in $\mathbb{G}^3$, a 3-dimensional Lie group equipped with a bi-invariant metric. For such surfaces, there is a harmonic Gauss map which maps values to the unit sphere within…

We provide a higher order boundary Harnack inequality for harmonic functions in slit domains. As a corollary we obtain the $C^\infty$ regularity of the free boundary in the Signorini problem near non-degenerate points.

Let $h$ and $g$ be two analytic functions in the unit disc $\Delta$ that $g(0)=1$. Also let $\beta$ be a complex number with ${\rm Re}\{\beta\}>-1/2$. A function $f$ is said to be log--harmonic mapping if it has the following representation…

For stationary harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the uniform interior and boundary gradient estimates in terms of the total energy of maps. We also show that if analytic target…

We formulate, for continuous-time dynamical systems, a sufficient condition to be a gradient-like system, i.e. that all bounded trajectories approach stationary points and therefore that periodic orbits, chaotic attractors, etc. do not…

The product of two complex-valued harmonic function is not in general complex-valued harmonic function. In this paper we show that if a complex-valued harmonic function is the product of two complex-valued harmonic functions, then it is the…

In this paper we study some improvements of the classical Hardy inequality. We add to the right hand side of the inequality a term which depends on some Lorentz norms of $u$ or of its gradient and we find the best values of the constants…

Suppose $w$ is a sense-preserving harmonic mapping of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ such that $w(\mathbb{D})\subseteq\mathbb{D}$ and $w$ has a zero of order $p\geq1$ at $z=0$. In this paper, we first improve the Schwarz lemma for $w$, and…

We give a characterization of harmonic and subharmonic functions in terms of their mean values in balls and on spheres. This includes the converse of an inequality of Beardon's for subharmonic functions. We also obtain integral inequalities…

Consider the boundary $\partial \mathbb D$ of the Brownian disk $\mathbb D$ as a metric space by endowing it with the (restriction of the) metric of $\mathbb D$. We show that the uniform measure on $\partial \mathbb D$ coincides with the…

We study the set of possible traces of anisotropic least gradient functions. We show that even on the unit disk it changes with the anisotropic norm: for two sufficiently regular strictly convex norms the trace spaces coincide if and only…

In this paper, we generalize the Cao-Yau's gradient estimate for the sum of squares of vector fields up to higher step under assumption of the generalized curvature-dimension inequality. With its applications, by deriving a…

Our main result concerns the behavior of bounded harmonic functions on a domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$ which may be represented as a strict epigraph of a Lipschitz function on $\mathbb{R}^{N-1}$. Generally speaking, the result says that the…

In this paper we analyze the necessary number of samples to estimate the gradient of any multidimensional smooth (possibly non-convex) function in a zero-order stochastic oracle model. In this model, an estimator has access to noisy values…

Recall that if $(M^n,g)$ satisfies $\mathrm{Ric}\geq 0$, then the Li-Yau Differential Harnack Inequality tells us for each nonnegative $f:M\to \mathbb{R}^+$, with $f_t$ its heat flow, that $\frac{\Delta f_t}{f_t}-\frac{|\nabla…

Families of hypersurfaces that are level-set families of harmonic functions free of critical points are characterized by a local differential-geometric condition. Harmonic functions with a specified level-set family are constructed from…
