In the paper we discuss three different notions of extremal holomorphic mappings: weak $m$-extremals, $m$-extremals and $m$-complex geodesics. We discuss relations between them in general case and in the special cases of unit ball,…
We give a sharp lower bound on the area of a domain that can be enclosed by a closed embedded $\lambda$-convex curve of a given length on the Lobachevsky plane.
We consider the configuration space of planar $n$-gons with fixed perimeter, which is diffeomorphic to the complex projective space $\mathbb{C}P^{n-2}$. The oriented area function has the minimal number of critical points on the…
We describe a family $\phi_{\lambda}$ of dynamical systems on the unit interval which preserve Bernoulli convolutions. We show that if there are parameter ranges for which these systems are piecewise convex, then the corresponding Bernoulli…
Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface of genus $\geq 2$ of constant negative curvature -1. An extremal disk is an embedded (resp. covering) disk of maximal (resp. minimal) radius. A surface containing an extremal disk is an {\em extremal…
The strip map is a natural map from the arc complex of a bordered hyperbolic surface $S$ to the vector space of infinitesimal deformations of $S$. We prove that the image of the strip map is a convex hypersurface when $S$ is a surface of…
In this paper we consider maps on the plane which are similar to quadratic maps in that they are degree 2 branched covers of the plane. In fact, consider for $\alpha$ fixed, maps $f_c$ which have the following form (in polar coordinates):…
WDC sets in ${\mathbb R}^d$ were recently defined as sublevel sets of DC functions (differences of convex functions) at weakly regular values. They form a natural and substantial generalization of sets with positive reach and still admit…
We prove that in many cases the existence of an extremal metric for some Laplace eigenvalue in a conformal class allows to find extremal metrics in conformal classes close by. As a consequence and as part of the arguments we obtain…
We show that a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ admitting partial pseudoconvex exhaustion remains partial pseudoconvex. The main ingredient of the proof is based on a new characterization of hyper-$q$-convex domains. Furthermore, we…
We consider polyhedral approximations of strictly convex compacta in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces (such compacta are also uniformly convex). We obtain the best possible estimates for errors of considered approximations in the…
We give a concrete sufficient condition for a simply-connected domain to be the image of the unit disk under a nonexpansive conformal map. This class of domains is also characterized by having sufficiently dense harmonic measure. The…
Our main result states that whenever we have a non-Euclidean norm $\|\cdot\|$ on a two-dimensional vector space $X$, there exists some $x\neq 0$ such that for every $\lambda\neq 1, \lambda>0$, there exist $y, z\in X$ verifying that…
It is established a continuous boundary extension of some class of mappings. Under some additional conditions, we have established that this extension is light in the closure of the definition domain. Under some stronger conditions, we also…
We mainly investigate some properties of quasiconformal mappings between smooth 2-dimensional surfaces with boundary in the Euclidean space, satisfying certain partial differential equations (inequalities) concerning Laplacian, and in…
In this short note, we prove that conformal classes which are small perturbations of a product conformal class on a product with a standard sphere admit a metric extremal for some Laplace eigenvalue. As part of the arguments we obtain…
In the present paper, we introduce a family of univalent harmonic functions, which map the unit disk onto domains convex in the direction of the imaginary axis. We find conditions for the linear combinations of mappings from this family to…
We prove that a backward orbit with bounded Kobayashi step for a hyperbolic or strongly elliptic holomorphic self-map of a bounded strongly convex domain in the d-dimensional complex Euclidean space necessarily converges to a boundary fixed…
An $n$-dimensional Hartogs domain $D_F$ with strongly pseudoconvex boundary can be equipped with a natural \K metric $g_F$. In this paper we prove that if $g_F$ is an extremal \K metric then $(D_F, g_F)$ is biholomorphically isometric to…
We associate curves of isotropic, Lagrangian and coisotropic subspaces to higher order, one parameter variational problems. Minimality and conjugacy properties of extremals are described in terms of these curves.
