On coefficient estimates for a class of holomorphic mappings

Let X be a complex Banach space with norm ‖ · ‖, B be the unit ball in X, D ⁿ be the unit polydisc in ℂ ⁿ . In this paper, we introduce a class of holomorphic mappings on B or D ⁿ . Let f(x) be a normalized locally biholomorphic mapping on B such that (Df(x))⁻¹ f(x) ∈ and f(x) − x has a zero of order k + 1 at x = 0. We obtain coefficient estimates for f(x). These results unify and generalize many known results.

Blaschke products and proper holomorphic mappings

Suppose f: $\mathbb{D} \to V$ is a proper holomorphic map of the unit disk $\mathbb{D} \subset \mathbb{C}$ onto a subset $V \subset \mathbb{D}$ of degree d>0. We show that f is conjugate to either an affine map or a degree d Blaschke product. As an application we give a unified treatment of theorems of Böttcher and Schröder coordinates.     

Analytic sets extending the graphs of holomorphic mappings

Let D, D′ ⊂ ℂⁿ be bounded domains with smooth real analytic boundaries and ƒ: D → D′ be a proper holomorphic map. Our main result implies that if the graph of ƒ extends as an analytic set to a neighborhood of a poìnt (a, a′) ∈ ∂D × 3D′ with a′ ∈ cl_ƒ(a), then ƒ extends holomorphically to a neighborhood of a.     

Similarity of operators associated with the Volterra relation

The “Volterra relation” is the commutation relation [S,V]⊂V ², where S is a not necessarily bounded operator, V is a bounded operator leaving D(S) invariant, and [⋅,⋅] is the Lie product. When S,V are so related, and in addition iS generates a bounded C ₀-group of operators and V has some general property, it is known that S+α V (α∈ℂ) is similar to S if and only if ℜ α=0 (cf. Theorem 11.17 in Kantorovitz, Spectral Theory of Banach Space Operators, Springer, Berlin, 1983). In particular, S−V is not similar to S. However, it is shown in this note that (without any restriction on V and on the group S(⋅) generated by iS), the perturbations (S−V)+P are similar to S for all P in the similarity sub-orbit {S(a)VS(−a);a∈ℝ} of V. When S is bounded, the above perturbations are similar to S for all P in the wider similarity sub-orbit {e ^aS Ve ^−aS ;a∈ℂ}.     

Linear extensions associated with abstract functional operators

Abstract functional operators are defined as elements of a C*-algebra B with a structure consisting of a closed C*-subalgebra A ? B and a unitary element T ? B such that the mapping \(\hat T:a \to TaT^{ - 1} \) is an automorphism of A and the set of finite sums \(\sum {a_k T^k } ,a_k \in A\), is norm dense in B.We give a new construction of a linear extension associated with the abstract weighted shift operator aT and obtain generalizations of known theorems about the relationship between the invertibility of operators and the hyperbolicity of the associated linear extensions to the case of abstract functional operators.     

Fixed point indices and periodic points of holomorphic mappings

Let Δ ⁿ be the ball |x| <  1 in the complex vector space , let be a holomorphic mapping and let M be a positive integer. Assume that the origin is an isolated fixed point of both f and the Mth iteration f ^M of f. Then for each factor m of M, the origin is again an isolated fixed point of f ^m and the fixed point index of f ^m at the origin is well defined, and so is the (local) Dold’s index [Invent. Math. 74(3), 419–435 (1983)] at the origin:

Residues of higher order and holomorphic vector fields

LetX ₁ andX ₂ be two holomorphic vector fields on a manifoldV with complex dimensionp. Assume that they have the same singular set . For all , it is known (after Chern-Bott) that each of the vector fields defines a residual characteristic classC ₁(V,X ₁)(resp.C ₁(V,X ₂)) inH ^2p (V, V-), which is a lift of the usual characteristic classC ₁ (V) of the tangent bundle. The differenceC ₁ (V,X ₂)-C ₁ (V,X ₁) belongs then to the image of in the exact sequence. In fact, there exists a canonical liftC ₁ (V,X ₁,X ₂) of this difference inH ^2p–1(V-): we will call itthe residual class of order 2 (associated toI, X ₁ andX ₂). This class is localized near the points whereX ₁ andX ₂ are colinear: we will explain this precisely in terms of Grothendieck residues. The formula that we obtain can be interpreted as a generalization of the purely algebraic identity, obtained from the general one as a byproduct: where ( ₁, , _p) and ( ₁,, _p ) denote two families of non-zero complex numbers, such that all denominators in this formula do not vanish. (This identity corresponds in fact to the case whereX ₁ andX ₂ are non-degenerate at the same isolated singular point.)If the _i 's (1ip) depend now differentiably (resp. holomorphically) on a real (resp. complex) parametert then, denoting by the derivative with respect tot, and assuming all numbers lying in a denominator not to be 0, we can deduce from the above identity the following derivation formula:     

Pseudo-differential operators with operator-valued symbols in the Mellin-edge-approach

The pseudo-differential Mellin-edge-approach is a tool for studying differential and pseudo-differential operators on manifolds with corners. The Mellin transform, acting on the corner axis ₊, is a substitute for the Fourier transform along edge variables in the calculus of wedge pseudo-differential operators. The basic elements of that theory (cf. Schulze [6,8]) are extended to edges like ₊ t with a control of symbols and smoothing operators near the vertext=0. The authors study the weighted Mellin wedge Sobolev spaces, the operator-valued Mellin convention translating Fourier symbols into Mellin ones under preserved smoothness up tot=0, and develop an operator calculus with its characterization on the level of symbols. Throughout the theory, there are involved one-parameter groups of isomorphisms acting on the Banach spaces that are the abstract analogues of the weighted cone Sobolev spaces.     

Extension ofUV n -valued mappings

A new method for extending upper semicontinuousUV ⁿ -valued mappings is introduced. Any upper semicontinuousUV ⁿ -valued mapping Ψ:A→Y of a closed subsetA of a separable metric spaceX into ann-connected, locallyn-connected complete metric spaceY satisfying the property of disjoint (n+1)-disks is proved to be extendable to an upper semicontinuousUV ⁿ -valued mapping Ψ′:X→Y such that Ψ′|a=Ψ. As an application, some results aboutn-soft mappings are obtained. Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 66, No. 3, pp. 351–363, September, 1999.     

On subadditive functions and ψ-additive mappings

In [4], assuming among others subadditivity and submultiplicavity of a function ψ: [0, ∞)→[0, ∞), the authors proved a Hyers-Ulam type stability theorem for “ψ-additive” mappings of a normed space into a normed space. In this note we show that the assumed conditions of the function ψ imply that ψ=0 and, consequently, every “ψ-additive” mapping must be additive     

Injective factorization of holomorphic mappings

We characterize the holomorphic mappings between complex Banach spaces that may be written in the form , where is another holomorphic mapping and is an operator belonging to a closed injective operator ideal. Analogous results are previously obtained for multilinear mappings and polynomials.

     

Stein structures and holomorphic mappings

We prove that every continuous map from a Stein manifold X to a complex manifold Y can be made holomorphic by a homotopic deformation of both the map and the Stein structure on X. In the absence of topological obstructions, the holomorphic map may be chosen to have pointwise maximal rank. The analogous result holds for any compact Hausdorff family of maps, but it fails in general for a noncompact family. Our main results are actually proved for smooth almost complex source manifolds (X,J) with the correct handlebody structure. The paper contains another proof of Eliashberg’s (Int J Math 1:29–46, 1990) homotopy characterization of Stein manifolds and a slightly different explanation of the construction of exotic Stein surfaces due to Gompf (Ann Math 148(2): 619–693, 1998; J Symplectic Geom 3:565–587, 2005).      

Upper eigenvalue estimates for Dirac operators

We derive upper eigenvalue estimates for generalized Dirac operators on closed Riemannian manifolds. In the case of the classical Dirac operator the estimates on the first eigenvalues are sharp for spheres of constant curvature.     

Differential operators associated with zonal polynomials. I

Summary Associated with each zonal polynomial,C _k(S), of a symmetric matrixS, we define a differential operator ∂_k, having the basic property that ∂_kC_λδ_kλ, δ being Kronecker's delta, whenever κ and λ are partitions of the non-negative integerk. Using these operators, we solve the problems of determining the coefficients in the expansion of (i) the product of two zonal polynomials as a series of zonal polynomials, and (ii) the zonal polynomial of the direct sum,S⊕T, of two symmetric matricesS andT, in terms of the zonal polynomials ofS andT. We also consider the problem of expanding an arbitrary homogeneous symmetric polynomial,P(S) in a series of zonal polynomials. Further, these operators are used to derive identities expressing the doubly generalised binomial coefficients ( _P ^λ ),P(S) being a monomial in the power sums of the latent roots ofS, in terms of the coefficients of the zonal polynomials, and from these, various results are obtained.     

Differential operators associated with zonal polynomials. II

Summary LetC _κ(S) be the zonal polynomial of the symmetricm×m matrixS=(s_ij), corresponding to the partition κ of the non-negative integerk. If ∂/∂S is them×m matrix of differential operators with (i, j)th entry ((1+δ_ij)∂/∂s_ij)/2, δ being Kronecker's delta, we show that C_k(∂/∂S)C_λ(S)=k!δ_λkC_k(I), where λ is a partition ofk. This is used to obtain new orthogonality relations for the zonal polynomials, and to derive expressions for the coefficients in the zonal polynomial expansion of homogenous symmetric polynomials.     

On subnormal operators

LetS be a pure subnormal operator such thatC*(S), theC*-algebra generated byS, is generated by a unilateral shiftU of multiplicity 1. We obtain conditions under which 5 is unitarily equivalent toα + βU, α andβ being scalars orS hasC*-spectral inclusion property. It is also proved that if in addition,S hasC*-spectral inclusion property, then so does its dualT andC*(T) is generated by a unilateral shift of multiplicity 1. Finally, a characterization of quasinormal operators among pure subnormal operators is obtained.     

Continuous mappings on subspaces of products with the κ-box topology

Much of General Topology addresses this issue: Given a function fC(Y,Z) with YY^′ and ZZ^′, find , or at least , such that ; sometimes Z=Z^′ is demanded. In this spirit the authors prove several quite general theorems in the context Y^′=(X_I)_κ=∏_iIX_i in the κ-box topology (that is, with basic open sets of the form ∏_iIU_i with U_i open in X_i and with U_i≠X_i for <κ-many iI). A representative sample result, extending to the κ-box topology some results of Comfort and Negrepontis, of Noble and Ulmer, and of Hušek, is this. Theorem Let ωκα (that means: κ<α, and [β<α and λ<κ]β^λ<α) with α regular, be a set of non-empty spaces with each d(X_i)<α, π[Y]=X_J for each non-empty JI such that |J|<α, and the diagonal in Z be the intersection of <α-many regular-closed subsets of Z×Z. Then (a) Y is pseudo-(α,α)-compact, (b) for every fC(Y,Z) there is J[I]^<α such that f(x)=f(y) whenever x_J=y_J, and (c) every such f extends to .
