Julia’s lemma and bloch constants

The classical Julia’s lemma is improved, branch points of Bloch functions are investigated, and new lower bounds of Bloch constants for functions with branch points are obtained.     

Bloch constants for planar harmonic mappings

We give a lower estimate for the Bloch constant for planar harmonic mappings which are quasiregular and for those which are open. The latter includes the classical Bloch theorem for holomorphic functions as a special case. Also, for bounded planar harmonic mappings, we obtain results similar to a theorem of Landau on bounded holomorphic functions.

     

Convergent Power Series for Fields in Positive or Negative High-Contrast Periodic Media

We obtain convergent power series representations for Bloch waves in periodic high-contrast media. The material coefficient in the inclusions can be positive or negative. The small expansion parameter is the ratio of period cell width to wavelength, and the coefficient functions are solutions of the cell problems arising from formal asymptotic expansion. In the case of positive coefficient, the dispersion relation has an infinite sequence of branches, each represented by a convergent even power series whose leading term is a branch of the dispersion relation for the homogenized medium. In the negative case, there is a single branch.     

Normal families of meromorphic functions sharing a holomorphic function and the converse of the Bloch principle

In this paper, we investigate normal families of meromorphic functions, prove some theorems of normal families sharing a holomorphic function, and give a counterexample to the converse of the Bloch principle based on the theorems.     

Distortion theorems for Bloch mappings on the unit polydisc D

In this article, we establish distortion theorems for some various subfamilies of Bloch mappings defined in the unit polydisc Dⁿ with critical points, which extend the results of Liu and Minda to higher dimensions. We obtain lower bounds of |det (f'(z))| and ? det (f'(z)) for Bloch mapping f. As an application, some lower and upper bounds of Bloch constants for the subfamilies of holomorphic mappings are given.     

Boundary Values of Harmonic Bloch Functions in Lipschitz Domains: A Martingale Approach

In this paper, the boundary behaviour of a certain class of harmonic functions in Lipschitz domains is studied. It continues the work of N. Makarov on the boudary behaviour of analytic Bloch functions in the unit disk. Certain means associated with the function allow to approximate it by a martingale, and the boudary properties of the function are transferred to the asymptotic behaviour of the martingale.     

Bloch Constant on α-Bloch Mappings of the Unit Ball

This note is denoted to establishing sharp distortion theorems for subclasses of α-Bloch mappings defined in the unit ball of Cn with critical points.Furthermore,the estimates of Bloch constant with respect to these subclasses are given.     

ON ENTIRE FUNCTIONS, BLOCH AND NORMAL FUNCTIONS

New criteria for an analytic function to be Bloch and for a meromorphic function to benormal are given. These criteria generalize the recently introduced area integral conditionsinvolving a Green's function.     

Extreme Bloch Functions and Summation Methods for Bloch Functions

In this paper we construct Bloch functions F for which the set {z | e sup _{|ζ| < 1} |F'(ζ)| ( 1 - |ζ| ² ) = |F'(z)| ( 1 - |z| ² )} is an analytic Jordan curve tangential to the unit disk in some points. It is proved that, using such functions, we can derive analogs to the Taylor expansion for Bloch functions in cases where the Taylor expansion does not converge. October 15, 1997.

Two normality criteria and the converse of the Bloch principle

We prove two normality criteria for a family of meromorphic functions satisfying a certain differential condition and provide a counterexample to the converse of the Bloch principle.     

On Bloch functions and the Contraction of Teichmüller metrics

In this note, we consider the properties of Bloch functions derived by Beltrami coefficient. A sufficient condition for extremal quasiconformal mapping with nonexistence of degenerating sequence is obtained. As a result, we consider the contraction or preserved of Teichmüller metrics for the related Beltrami lines under the projection mapping π     

Norm-attaining composition operators on the Bloch spaces

We prove that every composition operator C? on the Bloch space (modulo constant functions) attains its norm and characterize the norm-attaining composition operators on the little Bloch space (modulo constant functions). We also identify the extremal functions for ‖C?‖ in both cases.     

Bloch space in the unit ball of

In this paper we obtain higher-dimensional versions of the Holland-Walsh characterization of the Bloch space and the Stroethoff characterization of the little Bloch space.

     

Topological structures of the sets of composition operators on the Bloch spaces

We study properties of the topological sets of composition operators on Bloch and little Bloch spaces in the operator topology.     

Diffractive behavior of the wave equation in periodic media: weak convergence analysis

We study the homogenization and singular perturbation of the wave equation in a periodic media for long times of the order of the inverse of the period. We consider initial data that are Bloch wave packets, i.e., that are the product of a fast oscillating Bloch wave and of a smooth envelope function. We prove that the solution is approximately equal to two waves propagating in opposite directions at a high group velocity with envelope functions which obey a Schrödinger type equation. Our analysis extends the usual WKB approximation by adding a dispersive, or diffractive, effect due to the non uniformity of the group velocity which yields the dispersion tensor of the homogenized Schrödinger equation.     

P-Bloch函数的偏差定理和单叶半径

In this paper, we establish distortion theorems for both normalized p-Bloch functions with branch points and normalized locally univalent p-Bloch functions defined on the unit disk, respectively. These distortion theorems give lower bounds on |f′(z)| and ■f′(z). As applications of these distortion theorems, the lower bounds of the radius of the largest schlicht disk on these Bloch functions are given, respectively. Notice that when p = 1, our results reduce to that of Liu and Minda.     

Dispersion for Schrödinger Equation with Periodic Potential in 1D

We extend a result on dispersion for solutions of the linear Schrödinger equation, proved by Firsova for operators with finitely many energy bands only, to the case of smooth potentials in 1D with infinitely many bands. The proof consists in an application of the method of stationary phase. Estimates for the phases, essentially the band functions, follow from work by Korotyaev. Most of the paper is devoted to bounds for the Bloch functions. For these bounds we need a detailed analysis of the quasimomentum function and the uniformization of the inverse of the quasimomentum function.

Bloch constant of holomorphic mappings on the unit polydisk of ℂ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

In this paper, we give a definition of Bloch mappings defined in the unit polydisk D ⁿ , which generalizes the concept of Bloch functions defined in the unit disk D. It is known that Bloch theorem fails unless we have some restrictive assumption on holomorphic mappings in several complex variables. We shall establish the corresponding distortion theorems for subfamilies β(K) and β _loc(K) of Bloch mappings defined in the polydisk D ⁿ , which extend the distortion theorems of Liu and Minda to higher dimensions. As an application, we obtain lower and upper bounds of Bloch constants for various subfamilies of Bloch mappings defined in D ⁿ . In particular, our results reduce to the classical results of Ahlfors and Landau when n = 1.
