It is well known that the bounding curve of the central hyperbolic component of the Multibrot set in the parameter space of unicritical degree $d$ polynomials is an epicycloid with $d-1$ cusps. The interior of the epicycloid gives the…
We give a slight generalization of the characterization of finite Blaschke products given in a previous paper. The characterization uses the boundary behaviour of a weighted local hyperbolic distortion of an analytic self-map of the unit…
In this survey paper, we discuss the problem of characterizing the critical sets of bounded analytic functions in the unit disk of the complex plane. This problem is closely related to the Berger-Nirenberg problem in differential geometry…
We consider semicrossed products of the disk algebra with respect to endomorphisms defined by finite Blaschke products. We characterize the Jacobson radical of these operator algebras. Furthermore, in the case the finite Blaschke product is…
We establish a sharp upper bound for the absolute value of the derivative of the finite Blaschke product, provided that the critical values of this product lie in a given disk.
A finite Blaschke product is a product of finitely many automorphisms of the unit disk. This brief survey covers some of the main topics in the area, including characterizations of finite Blaschke products, approximation theorems,…
Elliptic M\"obius transformations of the unit disk are those for which there is a fixed point in $\mathbb{D}$. It is not hard to classify which M\"obius transformations are elliptic in terms of the parameters. The set of parameters can be…
The determination of a finite Blaschke product from its critical points is a well-known problem with interrelations to other topics. Though existence and uniqueness of solutions are established for long, we present several new aspects which…
We consider the classical problem of maximizing the derivative at a fixed point over the set of all bounded analytic functions in the unit disk with prescribed critical points. We show that the extremal function is essentially unique and…
Let $\mathbb{D}$ be the unit disk in the complex plane. Among other results, we prove the following curious result for a finite Blaschke product: $$B(z)=e ^{is}\prod_{k=1}^d \frac{z-a_k}{1-z \overline{a_k}}.$$ The Lebesgue measure of the…
We establish an extension of Liouville's classical representation theorem for solutions of the partial differential equation $\Delta u=4 e^{2u}$ and combine this result with methods from nonlinear elliptic PDE to construct holomorphic maps…
We prove that, for any finite Blaschke product $w=B(z)$ in the unit disk, the corresponding Riemann surface over the $w$--plane contains a one-sheeted disk of the radius $0.5$. Moreover, it contains a unit one-sheeted disk with a radial…
A finite Blaschke product, restricted to the unit circle, is a smooth covering map. The maximum and minimum values of the derivative of this map reflect the geometry of the Blaschke product. We identify two classes of extremal Blaschke…
We obtain an upper bound for the derivative of a Blaschke product, whose zeros lie in a certain Stolz-type region. We show that the derivative belongs to the space of analytic functions in the unit disk, introduced recently in \cite{FG}. As…
Consider the space $\mathcal{F}$ of all inner functions on the unit open disk under the uniform topology, which is a metric topology induced by the $H^{\infty}$-norm. In the present paper, a class of Blaschke products, denoted by…
We study several problems motivated by Crouzeix's conjecture, which we consider in the special setting of model spaces and compressions of the shift with finite Blaschke products as symbols. We pose a version of the conjecture in this…
Let $B(z)$ be a finite Blaschke product of degree $n$. We consider the problem when a finite Blaschke product can be written as a composition of two nontrivial Blaschke products of lower degree related to the condition $% B\circ M=B$ where…
In this paper we provide several uniqueness and non-existence results for complete parabolic constant mean curvature spacelike hypersurfaces in Lorentzian warped products under appropriate geometric assumptions. As a consequence of this…
We prove sharp bounds for the product and the sum of two hyperbolic distances between the opposite sides of hyperbolic Lambert quadrilaterals in the unit disk. Furthermore, we study the images of Lambert quadrilaterals under quasiconformal…
It is well known that a ramified holomorphic covering of a closed unitary disc by another such a disc is given by a finite Blaschke product. The inverse is also true. In this note we give an explicit description of holomorphic ramified…
