Let $\Omega$ denote the class of functions $f$ analytic in the open unit disc $\Delta$, normalized by the condition $f(0)=f'(0)-1=0$ and satisfying the inequality \begin{equation*} \left|zf'(z)-f(z)\right|<\frac{1}{2}\quad(z\in\Delta).…

Let $\mathcal{S}_H^0$ denote the class of all functions $f(z)=h(z)+\overline{g(z)}=z+\sum^\infty_{n=2} a_nz^n +\overline{\sum^\infty_{n=2} b_nz^n}$ that are sense-preserving, harmonic and univalent in the open unit disk $|z|<1$. The…

In 1984, Gehring and Pommerenke proved that if the Schwarzian derivative $S(f)$ of a locally univalent analytic function $f$ in the unit disk satisfies that $\limsup_{|z|\to 1} |S(f)(z)| (1-|z|^2)^2 < 2$, then there exists a positive…

In the paper, the authors concisely survey and review some functions involving the gamma function and its various ratios, simply state their logarithmically complete monotonicity and related results, and find necessary and sufficient…

In this paper we obtain some extensions of the classical Krylov-Safonov Harnack inequality. The novelty is that we consider functions that do not necessarily satisfy an infinitesimal equation but rather exhibit a two-scale behavior. We…

We consider the class of measurable functions defined in all of $\mathbb{R}^n$ that give rise to a nonlocal minimal graph over a ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We establish that the gradient of any such function is bounded in the interior of the…

In this paper, we obtain estimates on the quantitative strata of the critical set of non-trivial harmonic functions $u$ which vanish continuously on $V \subset \partial \Omega$, a relatively open subset of the boundary of a convex domain…

We prove symmetry for the p-capacitary potential satisfying $$ \Delta_p u = 0 \, \mbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^N \setminus \overline{\Omega} , \; u=1 \, \mbox{ on } \Gamma, \; \lim_{|x|\rightarrow \infty} u(x)=0 , \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; 1<p<N, $$…

The Hardy-Littlewood maximal function $\mathcal{M}$ and the trigonometric function $\sin{x}$ are two central objects in harmonic analysis. We prove that $\mathcal{M}$ characterizes $\sin{x}$ in the following way: let $f \in…

The main result of this paper is a sharp upper bound on the first positive eigenvalue of Dirac operators in two dimensional simply connected $C^3$-domains with infinite mass boundary conditions. This bound is given in terms of a conformal…

In this work we prove that the non-negative functions $u \in L^s_{loc}(\Omega)$, for some $s>0$, belonging to the De Giorgi classes \begin{equation}\label{eq0.1} \fint\limits_{B_{r(1-\sigma)}(x_{0})} \big|\nabla \big(u-k\big)_{-}\big|^{p}\,…

Let $x \in \mathbb{R}^d$, $d \geq 3,$ and $f: \mathbb{R}^d \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a twice differentiable function with all second partial derivatives being continuous. For $1\leq i,j \leq d$, let $a_{ij} : \mathbb{R}^d \rightarrow…

We consider the singular boundary-value problem \Delta u = f(u) in D; u|_dD= phi, where 1. D is a bounded C^2-domain of R^d, d >= 3 2. f: (0,1) -> (0,1) is a locally H\"older continuous function such that f(u) -> 1 as u -> 0 at the rate…

We establish two new estimates which control a function (after subtracting its average) in $L^1$ by only the $L^1$ norm of its radial derivative. While the interior estimate holds for all superharmonic functions, the boundary version is…

The $\Gamma $-limit of a family of functionals $u\mapsto \int_{\Omega }f\left( \frac{x}{\varepsilon },\frac{x}{\varepsilon ^{2}},D^{s}u\right) dx$ is obtained for $s=1,2$ and when the integrand $f=f\left( y,z,v\right) $ is a continous…

We consider nonnegative solutions $u:\Omega\longrightarrow \mathbb{R}$ of second order hypoelliptic equations \begin{equation*} \mathscr{L} u(x) =\sum_{i,j=1}^n \partial_{x_i} \left(a_{ij}(x)\partial_{x_j} u(x) \right) + \sum_{i=1}^n b_i(x)…

We show that for uniform domains $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ whose boundaries satisfy a certain nondegeneracy condition that harmonic measure cannot be mutually absolutely continuous with respect to $\alpha$-dimensional Hausdorff…

New sufficient conditions, concerned with the coefficients of harmonic functions $f(z)=h(z)+\bar{g(z)}$ in the open unit disk $\mathbb{U}$ normalized by $f(0)=h(0)=h'(0)-1=0$, for $f(z)$ to be harmonic close-to-convex functions are…

We prove an inequality related to questions in Approximation Theory, Probability Theory, and to Irregularities of Distribution. Let $h_R$ denote an $L ^{\infty}$ normalized Haar function adapted to a dyadic rectangle $R\subset [0,1] ^{3}$.…

First, we give the definition for quasi-nearly subharmonic functions, now for general, not necessarily nonnegative functions, unlike previously. We point out that our function class incudes, among others, quasisubharmonic functions, nearly…
