Circular symmetrization,subordination and arclength problems on convex functions

We study the class of univalent analytic functions f in the unit disk of the form satisfying where Ω will be a proper subdomain of which is starlike with respect to . Let be the unique conformal mapping of onto Ω with and and . Let denote the arclength of the image of the circle , . The first result in this paper is an inequality for , which solves the general extremal problem , and contains many other well‐known results of the previous authors as special cases. Other results of this article cover another set of related problems about integral means in the general setting of the class .     

Some properties of a class of symmetric functions and its applications

For , the symmetric functions are defined by where , and are non‐negative integers. In this paper, the Schur convexity, geometric Schur convexity and harmonic Schur convexity of are investigated. As applications, Schur convexity for the other symmetric functions is obtained by a bijective transformation of independent variable for a Schur convex function, some analytic and geometric inequalities are established by using the theory of majorization, in particular, we derive from our results a generalization of Sharpiro's inequality, and give a new generalization of Safta's conjecture in the n‐dimensional space and others.     

On some length problems for univalent functions

Let be the class of functions which are analytic in the unit disk . Let C(r) be the closed curve that is the image of the circle |z|=r < 1 under the mapping w = f(z), L(r) the length of C(r), and let A(r) be the area enclosed by the curve C(r). In 1968 D. K. Thomas shown that if , f is starlike with respect to the origin, and for 0≤r < 1, A(r) < A, an absolute constant, then Later, in 1969 Nunokawa has shown that if f is convex univalent, then This paper is devoted to obtaining a related correspondence between f(z) and L(r) for the case when f is univalent.

Integral means and Dirichlet integral for analytic functions

For normalized analytic functions f in the unit disk, the estimate of the integral means is important in certain problems in fluid dynamics, especially when the functions are non‐vanishing in the punctured unit disk . We consider the problem of finding the extremal function f which maximizes the integral means for f belong to certain classes of analytic functions related to sufficient conditions of univalence. In addition, for certain subclasses of the class of normalized univalent and analytic functions, we solve the extremal problem for the Yamashita functional where denotes the area of the image of under . The first problem was originally discussed by Gromova and Vasil'ev in 2002 while the second by Yamashita in 1990.     

Well‐posedness of non‐autonomous linear evolution equations in uniformly convex spaces

This paper addresses the problem of well‐posedness of non‐autonomous linear evolution equations in uniformly convex Banach spaces. We assume that for each t is the generator of a quasi‐contractive, strongly continuous group, where the domain D and the growth exponent are independent of t . Well‐posedness holds provided that is Lipschitz for all . Hölder continuity of degree is not sufficient and the assumption of uniform convexity cannot be dropped.     

Note on Nikodym maximal in the variable Lebesgue spaces

In this paper we consider the k‐plane Nikodym maximal estimates in the variable Lebesgue spaces . We first formulate the problem about the boundedness of the k‐plane Nikodym maximal and show that the maximal estimate in is equivalent to that in for . So, the optimal Nikodym maximal estimate in follows from Cordoba's estimate.     

Universality properties of the quaternionic power series and entire functions

In this paper we establish the existence of “almost universal” quaternionic power series and entire functions. Denoting by B(0, 1) the open unit ball in , this means that there exists a quaternionic power series with radius of convergence 1 such that, denoting by the n‐th partial sum of S, for every , for every axially symmetric open subset Ω of containing K and every f slice regular on Ω, there exists a subsequence of the partial sums of S such that uniformly on K, as . The symbol denotes the set of axially symmetric compact sets in such that is connected for some . This is a slightly weaker property than the classical universal power series phenomenon obtained for analytic only on the interior of K and continuous on K. We also generalize a result originally proven by Birkhoff and finally we show that there exists an entire quaternionic function whose set of derivatives is dense in the class of entire quaternionic functions.     

Eigenvalues of the k‐th power of a graph

The k‐th power of a graph G, denoted by , is a graph with the same set of vertices as G such that two vertices are adjacent in if and only if their distance in G is at most k. In this paper, we give the bounds on the spectral radius of and . The Nordhaus–Gaddum‐type inequality for the spectral radius of the graph is also presented. Moreover, we obtain an upper bound on the energy of the second power of graphs.     

Concave univalent functions and Dirichlet finite integral

The article deals with the class consisting of non‐vanishing functions f that are analytic and univalent in such that the complement is a convex set, and the angle at ∞ is less than or equal to for some . Related to this class is the class of concave univalent mappings in , but this differs from with the standard normalization A number of properties of these classes are discussed which includes an easy proof of the coefficient conjecture for settled by Avkhadiev et al. 3 . Moreover, another interesting result connected with the Yamashita conjecture on Dirichlet finite integral for is also presented.     

A further study on value distribution of the Riemann zeta‐function

The paper concerns the uniqueness problem of Riemann zeta‐function. It is showed that the Riemann zeta‐function is uniquely determined in terms of the preimages of three complex values except possibly a set G with , where G is called an exceptional set.     

Korovkin‐type results for multivariate functions which are periodic with respect to one variable

Let K be a compact metric space and let denote the real Banach space of all continuous functions which are 2π‐periodic with respect to the second variable. We prove the following Korovkin‐type result: Let be a continuous algebraic separating function such that for all , and let be a sequence of positive linear operators. If uniformly with respect to and uniformly on for all , then uniformly on for every . As a corollary we deduce: If , then uniformly on for every if and only if uniformly on for every , where and .     

The upper and lower quantization coefficient for Markov‐type measures

We study the asymptotic quantization error for Markov‐type measures μ on a class of ratio‐specified graph directed fractals E . Assuming a separation condition for E , we show that the quantization dimension for μ of order r exists and determine its exact value in terms of spectral radius of a related matrix. We prove that the ‐dimensional lower quantization coefficient for μ is always positive. Moreover, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for the ‐dimensional upper quantization coefficient for μ to be finite.

Let be a polyharmonic function of order N defined on the strip satisfying the growth condition (0.1) for and any compact subinterval K of , and suppose that vanishes on equidistant hyperplanes of the form for and Then it is shown that is odd at t ₀, i.e. that for . The second main result states that u is identically zero provided that u satisfies 0.1 and vanishes on 2N equidistant hyperplanes with distance c .     

On the structure of sets with positive reach

We give a complete characterization of compact sets with positive reach (proximally C ¹ sets) in the plane and of one‐dimensional sets with positive reach in . Further, we prove that if is a set of positive reach of topological dimension , then A has its “k‐dimensional regular part” which is a k‐dimensional “uniform” C ^{1, 1} manifold open in A and can be locally covered by finitely many ‐dimensional DC surfaces. We also show that if has positive reach, then can be locally covered by finitely many semiconcave hypersurfaces.     

Two‐sided estimates and positivity conditions for solutions of linear operator equations in a Banach lattice

Let A and be bounded linear operators in a Banach lattice B, and M be a positive operator in B. The paper deals with the equation where X should be found and are real numbers. Two‐sided estimates and positivity conditions for a solution of that equation are established. The illustrative examples are also presented.     

On rotationally starlike logharmonic mappings

This paper considers the class of all mappings of the form where h and g are analytic in the unit disk U, normalized by , and such that is logharmonic with respect to an analytic self‐map a of U. A distortion estimate and the radius of starlikeness are obtained for this class. Additionally, a solution to the problem of minimizing the moments of order p over the class is found, as well as an estimate for arclength.     

Arithmetic toric varieties

We study toric varieties over a field k that split in a Galois extension using Galois cohomology with coefficients in the toric automorphism group. Part of this Galois cohomology fits into an exact sequence induced by the presentation of the class group of the toric variety. This perspective helps to compute the Galois cohomology, particularly for cyclic Galois groups. We use Galois cohomology to classify k‐forms of projective spaces when is cyclic, and we also study k‐forms of surfaces.     

k‐Kings in k‐Quasitransitive Digraphs

Let D be a digraph with vertex set and arc set . A vertex x is a k‐king of D, if for every , there is an ‐path of length at most k. A subset N of is k‐independent if for every pair of vertices , we have and ; it is l‐absorbent if for every there exists such that . A ‐kernel of D is a k‐independent and l‐absorbent subset of . A k‐kernel is a ‐kernel. A digraph D is k‐quasitransitive, if for any path of length k, x₀ and are adjacent. In this article, we will prove that a k‐quasitransitive digraph with has a k‐king if and only if it has a unique initial strong component and the unique initial strong component is not isomorphic to an extended ‐cycle where each has at least two vertices. Using this fact, we show that every strong k‐quasitransitive digraph has a ‐kernel.     

A note about Volterra operators on weighted Banach spaces of entire functions

We characterize boundedness, compactness and weak compactness of Volterra operators acting between different weighted Banach spaces of entire functions with sup‐norms in terms of the symbol g; thus we complement recent work by Bassallote, Contreras, Hernández‐Mancera, Martín and Paul 3 for spaces of holomorphic functions on the disc and by Constantin and Peláez 16 for reflexive weighted Fock spaces.
