Continuous embeddings in harmonic mixed norm spaces on the unit ball in ? n

In this paper continuous embeddings in spaces of harmonic functions with mixed norm on the unit ball in ? ⁿ are established, generalizing some Hardy-Littlewood embeddings for similar spaces of holomorphic functions in the unit disc. Differences in indices between the spaces of harmonic and holomorphic spaces are revealed. As a consequence an analogue of classical Fejér-Riesz inequality is obtained. Embeddings in the special case of Riesz systems are also established.     

Analysis on Besov spaces II: Embedding and duality theorems

This paper gives several results on Besov spaces of holomorphic functions on a very large class of domains D in Cn. They include duality theorem, embedding theorem, best growth estimate, and boundedness of multiplication operators on Besov spaces.     

Hypercyclic convolution operators on Fréchet spaces of analytic functions

A result of Godefroy and Shapiro states that the convolution operators on the space of entire functions on Cn, which are not multiples of identity, are hypercyclic. Analogues of this result have appeared for some spaces of holomorphic functions on a Banach space. In this work, we define the space holomorphic functions associated to a sequence of spaces of polynomials and determine conditions on this sequence that assure hypercyclicity of convolution operators. Some known results come out as particular cases of this setting. We also consider holomorphic functions associated to minimal ideals of polynomials and to polynomials of the Schatten-von Neumann class.     

Berezin transform on the harmonic Fock space

We show that the Berezin transform associated to the harmonic Fock (Segal-Bargmann) space on Cn has an asymptotic expansion analogously as in the holomorphic case. The proof involves a computation of the reproducing kernel, which turns out to be given by one of Horn's hypergeometric functions of two variables, and an ad hoc determination of the asymptotic behaviour of the resulting integrals, to which the ordinary stationary phase method is not directly applicable.     

Composition operators on the polydisc induced by smooth symbols

We study composition operators CΦ on the Hardy spaces Hp and weighted Bergman spaces of the polydisc Dn in Cn. When Φ is of class C² on , we show that CΦ is bounded on Hp or if and only if the Jacobian of Φ does not vanish on those points ζ on the distinguished boundary Tn such that Φ(ζ)∈Tn. Moreover, we show that if ε>0 and if , then CΦ is bounded on .     

Essential norm of products of multiplication composition and differentiation operators on weighted Bergman spaces

Let ψ be a holomorphic function on the open unit disk D and φ a holomorphic self-map of D. Let C_φ,M_ψ and D denote the composition, multiplication and differentiation operator, respectively. We find an asymptotic expression for the essential norm of products of these operators on weighted Bergman spaces on the unit disk. This paper is a continuation of our recent paper concerning the boundedness of these operators on weighted Bergman spaces.     

Harmonic morphisms from the compact semisimple Lie groups and their non-compact duals

In this paper we prove the local existence of complex-valued harmonic morphisms from any compact semisimple Lie group and their non-compact duals. These include all Riemannian symmetric spaces of types II and IV. We produce a variety of concrete harmonic morphisms from the classical compact simple Lie groups SO(n), SU(n), Sp(n) and globally defined solutions on their non-compact duals SO(n,C)/SO(n), SLn(C)/SU(n) and Sp(n,C)/Sp(n).     

Propagation of boundary CR foliations and Morera type theorems for manifolds with attached analytic discs

We prove that homologically nontrivial generic smooth (2n−1)-parameter families of analytic discs in Cn, n?2, attached by their boundaries to a CR-manifold Ω, test CR-functions in the following sense: if a smooth function on Ω analytically extends into any analytic discs from the family, then the function satisfies tangential CR-equations on Ω. In particular, we give an answer (Theorem 1) to the following long standing open question, so called strip-problem, earlier solved only for special families (mainly for circles): given a smooth one-parameter family of Jordan curves in the plane and a function f admitting holomorphic extension inside each curve, must f be holomorphic on the union of the curves? We prove, for real-analytic functions and arbitrary generic real-analytic families of curves, that the answer is “yes,” if no point is surrounded by all curves from the family. The latter condition is essential. We generalize this result to characterization of complex curves in C² as real 2-manifolds admitting nontrivial families of attached analytic discs (Theorem 4). The main result implies fairly general Morera type characterization of CR-functions on hypersurfaces in C² in terms of holomorphic extensions into three-parameter families of attached analytic discs (Theorem 2). One of the applications is confirming, in real-analytic category, the Globevnik-Stout conjecture (Theorem 3) on boundary values of holomorphic functions. It is proved that a smooth function on the boundary of a smooth strictly convex domain in Cn extends holomorphically inside the domain if it extends holomorphically into complex lines tangent to a given strictly convex subdomain. The proofs are based on a universal approach, namely, on the reduction to a problem of propagation, from the boundary to the interior, of degeneracy of CR-foliations of solid torus type manifolds (Theorem 2.2).     

Finely locally injective finely harmonic morphisms

We consider fine topology in the complex plane C and finely harmonic morphisms. We use oriented Jordan curves in the plane to prove that for a finely locally injective finely harmonic morphism f in a fine domain in C, either f or f is a finely holomorphic function. This partially extends result by Fuglede, who considered a kind of continuity for the fine derivatives of the finely harmonic morphism. As a consequence of this we obtain a both necessary and sufficient condition for a function f to be finely holomorphic or finely antiholomorphic. We do not know if the condition of finely local injectivity (q.e.) is automatically fulfilled by any non-constant finely harmonic morphism.

Iteration of holomorphic maps in Hilbert spaces

Previous work (Gong-ning Chen, J. Math. Anal. Appl.98 (1984), 305–313) on iteration of holomorphic maps of Cⁿ is continued. The purpose of this note is to extend results given in the above mentioned reference to the case of complex Hilbert spaces. Other comments are appended.     

Universal holomorphic and harmonic functions with additional properties

Based on the concept of so-called (total) omnipresence of operators, several results on the generity of (translation-dilation) universal functions are proved. Mainly to have a unified approach to holomorphic and harmonic functions, in the first part operators on spaces of P-holomorphic functions are considered. The second part is devoted to holomorphic functions having lacunary power series structure and to holomorphic functions which are univalent in certain prescribed sets.     

Embeddings between weak Orlicz martingale spaces

Let Φ be an increasing and convex function on [0,∞) with Φ(0)=0 satisfying that for any α>0, there exists a positive constant Cα such that Φ(αt)?CαΦ(t), t>0. Let wLΦ denote the corresponding weak Orlicz space. We obtain some embeddings between vector-valued weak Orlicz martingale spaces by establishing the wLΦ-inequalities for martingale transform operators with operator-valued multiplying sequences. These embeddings are closely related to the geometric properties of the underlying Banach space. In particular, for any scalar valued martingale f=(fn)_n?1, we claim that

     

Symmetries of Fundamental Solutions and Their Application in Continuum Mechanics

This paper is a brief survey of the recent results in problems of approximating functions by solutions of homogeneous elliptic systems of PDEs on compact sets in the plane in the norms of C^m spaces, m ≥ 0. We focus on general second-order systems. For such systems the paper complements the recent survey by M. Mazalov, P. Paramonov, and K. Fedorovskiy (2012), where the problems of C^m approximation of functions by holomorphic, harmonic, and polyanalytic functions as well as by solutions of homogeneous elliptic PDEs with constant complex coefficients were considered.     

On Weighted Spaces of Harmonic and Holomorphic Functions

Weighed spaces of harmonic and holomorphic functions on theunit disc are studied. We show that for all radial weights whichare not decreasing too fast the space of harmonic functionsis isomorphic to c₀. For the weights that we consider we completelycharacterize those spaces of holomorphic functions which areisomorphic to c₀. Moreover, we determine when the Riesz projection,mapping the weighted space of harmonic functions onto the correspondingspace of holomorphic functions, is bounded.     

Products of multiplication composition and differentiation operators on weighted Bergman spaces

Let ψ be a holomorphic function on the open unit disk D and φ a holomorphic self-map of D. Let C_φ, M_ψ and D denote the composition, multiplication and differentiation operator, respectively. We consider linear operators induced by products of these operators on weighted Bergman spaces on D. The boundedness is established by using Carleson-type measures.     

Exterior Monge-Ampère solutions

We discuss the Siciak-Zaharjuta extremal function of a real convex body in Cn, a solution of the homogeneous complex Monge-Ampère equation on the exterior of the convex body. We determine several conditions under which a foliation by holomorphic curves can be found in the complement of the convex body along which the extremal function is harmonic. We study a variational problem for holomorphic disks in projective space passing through prescribed points at infinity. The extremal curves are all complex quadratic curves, and the geometry of such curves allows for the determination of the leaves of the foliation by simple geometric criteria. As a byproduct we encounter a new invariant of an exterior domain, the Robin indicatrix, which is in some cases the dual of the Kobayashi indicatrix for a bounded domain. Finally, we construct extremal curves for two non-convex bodies in R².     

SOME PROPERTIES OF HOLOMORPHIC CLIFFORDIAN FUNCTIONS IN COMPLEX CLIFFORD ANALYSIS

In this article, we mainly develop the foundation of a new function theory of several complex variables with values in a complex Clifford algebra defined on some subdomains of Cn+1, so-called complex holomorphic Cliffordian functions. We define the complex holomorphic Cliffordian functions, study polynomial and singular solutions of the equation D△mf=0, obtain the integral representation formula for the complex holomorphic Cliffordian functions with values in a complex Clifford algebra defined on some submanifolds of Cn+1, deduce the Taylor expansion and the Laurent expansion for them and prove an invariance under an action of Lie group for them.     

New constructions of twistor lifts for harmonic maps

We show that given a harmonic map φ from a Riemann surface to a classical compact simply connected inner symmetric space, there is a J ₂-holomorphic twistor lift of φ (or its negative) if and only if it is nilconformal. In the case of harmonic maps of finite uniton number, we give algebraic formulae in terms of holomorphic data which describes their extended solutions. In particular, this gives explicit formulae for the twistor lifts of all harmonic maps of finite uniton number from a surface to the above symmetric spaces.
