The region of values of the system { f ( z 1),..., f ( z n )} in the class of typically real functions. III

The paper studies the region of values D_m,n(T) of the system {f(z₁), f(z₂),..., f(z_m), f(r₁), f(r₂),..., f(r_n)}, where m ≥ 1; n > 1; z_j, j = 1, ... m, are arbitrary fixed points of the disk U = {z: |z| < 1} with Im z_j ≠ 0, j = 1, 2, ..., m; r_j, 0 < r_j < 1, j = 1, 2, ..., n, are fixed; f ∈ T, and the class T consists of functions f(z) = z + c₂z² + ... regular in the disk U and satisfying the condition Im f(z) · Im z > 0 for Im z ≠= 0, z ∈ U. An algebraic characterization of the set D_m,n(T) in terms of nonnegative-definite Hermitian forms is provided, and all the boundary functions are described. As an implication, the region of values of f(z₁) in the subclass of functions f ∈ T with prescribed values f(r_j) (j = 1, 2, 3) is determined. Bibliography: 12 titles.

On a region of values in the class of typically real functions

The paper studies the regions of values of the systems {f(z₁), f(r₁), f(r₂),…, f(r_n)} and {f(r₁), f(r₂),…, f (r_n)}, where n ⁥ 2; z₁ is an arbitrary fixed point of the disk U = {z: |z| < 1} with Im z₁ ≠ 0; r_j are fixed numbers, 0 < r_j < 1, j = 1, 2,…, n; f ∈ T, and the class T consists of the functions f(z), f(0) = 0, f′(0) = 1, regular in the disk U and satisfying the condition Im f(z) · Imz > 0 for Im z ≠ 0. As an implication, the region of values of f(z₁) in the subclass of functions f ∈ T with prescribed values f(r_j) (j = 1, 2,…, n) is determined.

Duals of holomorphic Besov spaces on the polydisks and diagonal mappings

Let U ⁿ be the unit polydisk in C ⁿ and S be the space of functions of regular variation. Let 1 ≤ p < ∞, ω = (ω ₁, ..., ω _n ), ω _j ∈ S(1 ≤ j ≤ n) and f ∈ H(U ⁿ ). The function f is said to be in holomorphic Besov space B _p (ω) if

On integral means of star-like functions

We study univalent holomorphic functions in the unit diskU = {z: |z| < 1} of the formf(z)=z+∑ _n=2 ^∞ a _n z ⁿ that satisfy the condition Re zf’(z)/f(z) > α with α∈ [0, 1) inU. Some integral means of such funcions are estimated.     

About entire functions with specialL 2-properties on one-dimensional subspaces of ℂ n

In this paper we consider special elements of the Fock space #x2131; _n . That is the space of entire functionsf:ℂ: ⁿ →ℂ, such that the followingL ²- condition is satisfied: . Here we show that there exists an entire functiong:ℂ ⁿ →ℂ such that for every one-dimensional subspace Π⊂ℂ ⁿ and for all 0<∈<2 we have , but in the limit case ∈=0 we have . This result is analogue to a result from [1]. There holomorphic functions on the unit-ball are investigated. Furthermore the proof — as the one in [1] — uses a theorem from [2]. Therefore we give another application of the results from [2] — namely for spaces of entire functions.     

Closures of finitely generated ideals in Hardy spaces

LetH ^∞ be the algebra of bounded analytic functions in the unit diskD. LetI=I(f ₁,...,f _N) be the ideal generated byf ₁,...,f _N∈H ^∞ andJ=J(f ₁,...,f _N) the ideal of the functionsf∈H ^∞ for which there exists a constantC=C(f) such that |f(z)|≤C(|f ₁ (z)|+...;+|f _N (z)|),z∈D. It is clear that , but an example due to J. Bourgain shows thatJ is not, in general, in the norm closure ofI. Our first result asserts thatJ is included in the norm closure ofI ifI contains a Carleson-Newman Blaschke product, or equivalently, if there existss>0 such that

Characterizations of Hardy-Orlicz and Bergman-Orlicz spaces

Let and τ denote the invariant gradient and invariant measure on the unit ball B of ℂⁿ, respectively. Assume that f is a holomorphic function on B and ϕ ∈ C²(ℝ) is a nonnegative, nondecreasing, convex function. Then f belongs to the Hardy-Orlicz space H _ϕ(B>) if and only if

Zero sets of holomorphic functions in the bidisk

Countably generated prime ideals in <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript>∞</Superscript>

We confirm a twenty year old conjecture by showing that a nonzero prime ideal P in the algebra H^∞ of bounded analytic functions in the open unit disk is countably generated if and only if it is either a principal ideal generated by the polynomial z−z₀, |z₀|<1, or if P is generated by the n-th roots of an atomic inner function. The case of the algebra H^∞+C is also dealt with. Dedicated to the 70th birthday of Joseph Cima Research supported by the RIP-program Oberwolfach 2004.     

Best approximation by holomorphic functions. Application to the best polynomial approximation of classes of holomorphic functions

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which a real-valued function from , 1 ≤ p < ∞, is badly approximable by the Hardy subspace H _p ⁰ := {ƒ ∈ H _p : ƒ(0) = 0}. In a number of cases, we obtain the exact values of the best approximations in the mean of functions holomorphic in the unit disk by functions holomorphic outside this disk. We use the obtained results for finding the exact values of the best polynomial approximations and n-widths of some classes of holomorphic functions. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which the generalized Bernstein inequality for algebraic polynomials on the unit circle is true. __________ Translated from Ukrains’kyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 59, No. 8, pp. 1047–1067, August, 2007.     

Boundary functions on a bounded balanced domain

We solve the following Dirichlet problem on the bounded balanced domain with some additional properties: For p > 0 and a positive lower semi-continuous function u on ∂Ω with u(z) = u(λ z) for |λ| = 1, z ∈ ∂Ω we construct a holomorphic function f ∈ (Ω) such that for z ∈ ∂Ω, where = {λ ∈ ℂ: |λ| < 1}.      

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.

Existence of minimizers for a class of anisotropic free discontinuity problems

Summary We prove the existence of minimizing pairs (K, u), K compact set ofR ^N and u∈W^{1, p} (Ω/K), for the functional when the integrand f(x, z) is convex with respect to z, |z|^p≤f(x, z)≤L|z|^p, p>1, and satisfies suitable assumptions of uniform continuity in x with respect to z.

Distortion theorem for Bloch mappings on the unit ball <Emphasis Type="Italic">ℬ</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

In this paper, we obtain a version of subordination lemma for hyperbolic disk relative to hyperbolic geometry on the unit disk D. This subordination lemma yields the distortion theorem for Bloch mappings f ∈ H（B^n） satisfying ｜｜f｜｜0 = 1 and det f＇（0） = α ∈ （0, 1], where｜｜f｜｜0 = sup{（1 - ｜z｜^2 ）n＋1/2n det（f＇（z））[1/n ： z ∈ B^n}. Here we establish the distortion theorem from a unified perspective and generalize some known results. This distortion theorem enables us to obtain a lower bound for the radius of the largest univalent ball in the image of f centered at f（0）. When a = 1, the lower bound reduces to that of Bloch constant found by Liu. When n = 1, our distortion theorem coincides with that of Bonk, Minda and Yanagihara.     

The boundary distortion and extremal problems in certain classes of univalent functions

We consider the class S₁(τ), 0<τ<1, of functions f(z)=rz+a₂z²+... that are regular and univalent in the unit disk U and have |f(z)|<1. We obtain sharp estimates for the 1-measure of the sets {θ: |f(e^iθ)|=1}. As a corollary, for the familiar class S we find Kolmogorov-type estimates for the sets {θ: |f(e^iθ)|>M}, M>1, and prove inequalities for the harmonic measure, which are similar to those by Carleman-Milloux and Baernstein. We also consider problems on distortion of fixed systems of boundary arcs in the classes of functions that are regular (or meromorphic) and univalent in the disk or circular annulus.

The sum of coefficients of bounded univalent functions

We solve the maximal value problem for the functional in the class of functionsf(z)=z+a ₂z²+… that are holomorphic and univalent in the unit disk and satisfy the inequality |f(z)|<M. We prove that the Pick functions are extremal for this problem for sufficiently largeM whenever the set of indicesk ₁,…,k_m contains an even number.
