Continuation of separately analytic functions defined on part of a domain boundary

Suppose that D ? ?ⁿ is a domain with smooth boundary ?D, E ? ?D is a boundary subset of positive Lebesgue measure mes(E) > 0, and F ? G is a nonpluripolar compact set in a strongly pseudoconvex domain G ? ?^m. We prove that, under some additional conditions, each function separately analytic on the set X = (D×F)∪(E× G) can be holomorphically continued into the domain where ω* is the P-measure and ω _in ^* is the inner P-measure.     

An optimal filtering method for stable analytic continuation

In this paper, we consider the problem of numerical analytic continuation of an analytic function f(z)=f(x+iy) on a strip domain Ω⁺={z=x+iy∈C∣x∈R,0<y<y₀}, where the data is given approximately only on the real axis y=0. This problem is severely ill-posed: the solution does not depend continuously on the given data. A novel method (filtering) is used to solve this problem and an optimal error estimate with Hölder type is proved. Numerical examples show that this method works effectively.     

Exponential asymptotics of woodpile chain nanoptera using numerical analytic continuation

Traveling waves in woodpile chains are typically nanoptera, which are composed of a central solitary wave and exponentially small oscillations. These oscillations have been studied using exponential asymptotic methods, which typically require an explicit form for the leading-order behavior. For many nonlinear systems, such as granular woodpile chains, it is not possible to calculate the leading-order solution explicitly. We show that accurate asymptotic approximations can be obtained using numerical approximation in place of the exact leading-order behavior. We calculate the oscillation behavior for Toda woodpile chains, and compare the results to exponential asymptotics based on previous methods from the literature: long-wave approximation and tanh-fitting. We then use numerical analytic continuation methods based on Padé approximants and the adaptive Antoulas–Anderson (AAA) method. These methods are shown to produce accurate predictions of the amplitude of the oscillations and the mass ratios for which the oscillations vanish. Exponential asymptotics using an AAA approximation for the leading-order behavior is then applied to study granular woodpile chains, including chains with Hertzian interactions—this method is able to calculate behavior that could not be accurately approximated in previous studies.

On a new class of analytic function derived by a fractional differential operator

Making use of the fractional differential operator, we impose and study a new class of analytic functions in the unit disk (type fractional differential equation). The main object of this paper is to investigate inclusion relations, coefficient bound for this class. Moreover, we discuss some geometric properties of the fractional differential operator.     

Normal Families and Uniqueness of Entire Functions and Their Derivatives

Let f be a nonconstant entire function; let k ≥ 2 be a positive integer; and let a be a nonzero complex number. If f（z） = a→f′（z） = a, and f′（z） = a →f^（k）（z） = a, then either f = Ce^λz ＋ a or f = Ce^λz ＋ a（λ - 1）/）λ, where C and ）, are nonzero constants with λ^k-1 = 1. The proof is based on the Wiman-Vlairon theory and the theory of normal families in an essential way.     

Meromorphic iterative roots of linear fractional functions

Iterative root problem can be regarded as a weak version of the problem of embedding a homeomorphism into a flow. There are many results on iterative roots of monotone functions. However, this problem gets more diffcult in non-monotone cases. Therefore, it is interesting to find iterative roots of linear fractional functions (abbreviated as LFFs), a class of non-monotone functions on ℝ. In this paper, iterative roots of LFFs are studied on ℂ. An equivalence between the iterative functional equation for non-constant LFFs and the matrix equation is given. By means of a method of finding matrix roots, general formulae of all meromorphic iterative roots of LFFs are obtained and the precise number of roots is also determined in various cases. As applications, we present all meromorphic iterative roots for functions z and 1/z.

On the convergence of Padé-type approximants to analytic functions

For a given summability method, the Okada theorem describes a domain, into which an arbitrary power series can be analytically continued, if such a domain is known for the geometric series. In this paper, Okada's theorem is extended to more general methods of analytic continuation. This results is applied to a special rational approximation, the so-called Padé-type approximation.     

Infinite systems of linear equations for real analytic functions

We study the problem when an infinite system of linear functional equations

has a real analytic solution on for every right-hand side and give a complete characterization of such sequences of analytic functionals . We also show that every open set has a complex neighbourhood such that the positive answer is equivalent to the positive answer for the analogous question with solutions holomorphic on .

Real analytic families of harmonic functions in a planar domain with a small hole

We consider a Dirichlet problem in a planar domain with a hole of diameter proportional to a real parameter ?   and we denote by _u?$u_{?}$ the corresponding solution. The behavior of _u?$u_{?}$ for ?   small and positive can be described in terms of real analytic functions of two variables evaluated at (?,1/log??)$(?,1/\log ??)$. We show that under suitable assumptions on the geometry and on the boundary data one can get rid of the logarithmic behavior displayed by _u?$u_{?}$ for ?   small and describe _u?$u_{?}$ by real analytic functions of ?. Then it is natural to ask what happens when ? is negative. The case of boundary data depending on ? is also considered. The aim is to study real analytic families of harmonic functions which are not necessarily solutions of a particular boundary value problem.

We prove some extensions of the classical results concerning the Eneström-Kakeya theorem and related analytic functions. Besides several consequences, our results considerably improve the bounds by relaxing and weakening the hypothesis in some cases.     

Fourier coefficients of Zygmund functions and analytic functions with quasiconformal deformation extensions

An open problem is to characterize the Fourier coefficients of Zygmund functions.This problem was also explicitly suggested by Nag and later by Teo and Takhtajan-Teo in the course of study of the universal Teichmu¨ller space.By a complex analysis approach,we give a characterization for the Fourier coefficients of a Zygmund function by a quadratic form.Some related topics are also discussed,including those analytic functions with quasiconformal deformation extensions.     

The global linear and local quadratic convergence of a non-interior continuation algorithm for the LCP

^** Email: zhenghaihuang{at}yahoo.com.cn; huangzhenghai{at}hotmail.com In this paper, we propose a non-interior continuation algorithmfor solving the P₀-matrix linear complementarity problem (LCP),which is conceptually simpler than most existing non-interiorcontinuation algorithms in the sense that the proposed algorithmonly needs to solve at most one linear system of equations ateach iteration. We show that the proposed algorithm is globallyconvergent under a common assumption. In particular, we showthat the proposed algorithm is globally linearly and locallyquadratically convergent under some assumptions which are weakerthan those required in many existing non-interior continuationalgorithms. It should be pointed out that the assumptions usedin our analysis of both global linear and local quadratic convergencedo not imply the uniqueness of the solution to the LCP concerned.To the best of our knowledge, such a convergence result hasnot been reported in the literature.     

Admissible majorants for model subspaces, and arguments of inner functions

Let Θ be an inner function in the upper half-plane ?⁺ and let K _Θ denote the model subspace H ² ? Θ H ² of the Hardy space H ² = H ²(?⁺). A nonnegative function w on the real line is said to be an admissible majorant for K _Θ if there exists a nonzero function f ∈ K _Θ such that {f} ? w a.e. on ?. We prove a refined version of the parametrization formula for K _Θ-admissible majorants and simplify the admissibility criterion (in terms of arg Θ) obtained in [8]. We show that, for every inner function Θ, there exist minimal K _Θ-admissible majorants. The relationship between admissibility and some weighted approximation problems is considered.
