We use weighted polynomial approximation to prove the existence of a compact set K with non-empty interior and a function f is dense in the space A(K) of all continuous functions on K that are holomorphic in the interior of K, endowed with…

We give new sufficient conditions for a compact set $E \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ to satisfy $\gamma(E)=\gamma_c(E)$, where $\gamma$ is the analytic capacity and $\gamma_c$ is the Cauchy capacity. As a consequence, we provide examples of compact…

Recently, Charpentier showed that there exist holomorphic functions $f$ in the unit disk such that, for any proper compact subset $K$ of the unit circle, any continuous function $\phi$ on $K$ and any compact subset $L$ of the unit disk,…

Let vphi:C rightarrow C be a bilipschitz map. We prove that if E\subset\C is compact, and gamma(E), alpha(E) stand for its analytic and continuous analytic capacity respectively, then C^{-1}\gamma(E)\leq \gamma(\vphi(E)) \leq C\gamma(E) and…

In Mergelyan type approximation we uniformly approximate functions on compact sets K by polynomials or rational functions or holomorphic functions on varying open sets containing K. In the present paper we consider analogous approximation,…

The most important uniform algebra is the family of continuous functions on a compact subset $K$ of the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$ which are analytic on the interior int$(K)$ For compact sets $K$ which are regular (i.e. $K =$int$(K)$ and…

Below we discuss the existence of a motherbody measure for the exterior inverse problem in potential theory in the complex plane. More exactly, we study the question of representability almost everywhere (a.e.) in C of (a branch of) an…

Cauchy's sum theorem is a prototype of what is today a basic result on the convergence of a series of functions in undergraduate analysis. We seek to interpret Cauchy's proof, and discuss the related epistemological questions involved in…

We prove some results on when functions on compact sets $K \subset \mathbb C$ can be approximated by polynomials avoiding values in given sets. We also prove some higher dimensional analogues. In particular we prove that a continuous…

A compact subset $K$ of the complex plane $\C$ is a set of polynomial (respectively rational) approximation if $P(K)=A(K)$ (respectively $R(K)=A(K)$), where $P(K)$ (respectively $R(K)$) is the family of functions on $K$ which are uniform…

For a function $f$, continuous on a compact convex set $K$ and analytic in its interior we construct a sequence of almost optimal polynomials that converge with a geometric rate at points of analyticity of $f$.

In this paper we prove that if $\phi:\C\to\C$ is a $K$-quasiconformal map, with $K>1$, and $E\subset \C$ is a compact set contained in a ball $B$, then $$\frac{\dot C_{\frac{2K}{2K+1},\frac{2K+1}{K+1}}(E)}{\diam(B)^{\frac2{K+1}}} \geq…
