We show that there is no complete proper holomorphic map from the open disc U in C to the bidisc UxU which extends continuously to the closed disc.

Let U be the open unit disc in C and let B be the open unit ball in C^2. We prove that every discrete subset of B is contained in the range f(U) of a complete, proper holomorphic embedding f:U-->B. Here the completeness of f means that for…

In this paper we investigate the global behavior of proper holomorphic maps f from the unit disc U={|z|<1} to C^2. The fact that U is transcendental imposes certain restrictions on the image f(U). For instance, f(U) cannot be contained in…

For any closed analytic set X in C^2 there exists a proper holomorphic embedding of the unit disk into C^2 such that the image avoids X.

Let U be the closed unit disc in C and let p be a point on the unit circle. Let f be a continuous function on U which extends holomorphically from each circle contained in U and centered at the origin, and from each circle contained in U…

We show that the graph of a holomorphic motion of the unit disc cannot be biholomorphic to a strongly pseudoconvex domain in C n .

In this paper we construct a properly embedded holomorphic disc in the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^2$ of $\mathbb{C}^2$ having a surprising combination of properties: on the one hand, it has finite area and hence is the zero set of a bounded…

We show that there are no tight nonholomorphic maps from irreducible domains into exceptional codomains, the only exception being the already known tight nonholomorphic maps from the Poincare disc. This follows up on previous work by the…

In this paper we prove a Rad\'o type result showing that there is no univalent polyharmonic mapping of the unit disk onto the whole complex plane. We also establish a connection between the boundary functions of harmonic and biharmonic…

We investigate the dynamical behaviour of a holomorphic map on a $f-$invariant subset $\mathcal{C}$ of $U,$ where $f:U \to \mathbb{C}^k.$ We study two cases: when $U$ is an open, connected and polynomially convex subset of $\mathbb{C}^k$…

We prove the following theorem: Let X be a Stein manifold of dimension at least 2 and Y a closed complete pluripolar subset of X. Given a point p in the complement of Y there is a proper holomorphic map f from the unit disc to X such that…

We prove that for any complex manifold X, the set of all holomorphic maps from the unit disc to X whose images are everywhere dense in X forms a dense subset in the space of all holomorphic maps from the disc to X. We show by an example…

If $f:[a,b]\to \mathbb{R}$, with $a<b$, is continuous and such that $a$ and $b$ are mapped in opposite directions by $f$, then $f$ has a fixed point in $I$. Suppose that $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ is map and $X$ is a continuum. We extend…

Let $\D$ be the unit disk. Kutzschebauch and Studer \cite{KS} recently proved that, for each continuous map $A:\overline D\to \mathrm{SL}(2,\C)$, which is holomorphic in $\D$, there exist continuous maps $E,F:\overline \D\to…

In this article, we study the Calabi invariant on the unit disk usually defined on compactly supported Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the open disk. In particular we extend the Calabi invariant to the group of $C^1$ diffeomorphisms of the…

For a compact $(2n+1)$-dimensional smooth manifold, let $\mu_M : B Diff_\partial (D^{2n+1}) \to B Diff (M)$ be the map that is defined by extending diffeomorphisms on an embedded disc by the identity. By a classical result of Farrell and…

Let $X$ be a topological space, $U$ -- opened subset of $X$. We will say that point $x \in \partial U$ is {\it accessible} from $U$ if there exists continuous injective mapping $\phi : I \to \Cl D$ such that $\phi(1)=x$, $\phi([0,1))…

A new metric on the open 2-dimensional unit disk is defined making it a geodesically complete metric space whose geodesic lines are precisely the Euclidean straight lines. Moreover, it is shown that the unit disk with this new metric is not…

For any polynomial diffeomorphism $f$ of $\mathbb{C}^2$ with positive entropy, neither the Julia set of $f$ nor of its inverse $f^{-1}$ is $C^1$ smooth as a manifold-with-boundary.

In this paper we examine functions in the disc algebra $\mathcal{A}(D)$ and the polydisc algebra $\mathcal{A}(D^I)$, where $I$ is a finite or countably infinite set. We prove that, generically, for every $f \in \mathcal{A}(D)$ the…
