Hardy-type theorem for orthogonal functions with respect to their zeros. The Jacobi weight case

Motivated by the G.H. Hardy's 1939 results [G.H. Hardy, Notes on special systems of orthogonal functions II: On functions orthogonal with respect to their own zeros, J. London Math. Soc. 14 (1939) 37-44] on functions orthogonal with respect to their real zeros λn, , we will consider, under the same general conditions imposed by Hardy, functions satisfying an orthogonality with respect to their zeros with Jacobi weights on the interval (0,1), that is, the functions f(z)=zνF(z), ν∈R, where F is entire and

     

On multiply-connected Fatou components in iteration of meromorphic functions

Let be a transcendental meromorphic function with at most finitely many poles. We mainly investigated the existence of the Baker wandering domains of f(z) and proved, among others, that if f(z) has a Baker wandering domain U, then for all sufficiently large n, fn(U) contains a round annulus whose module tends to infinity as n→∞ and so for some 0<d<1,

     

Normal families and shared values of meromorphic functions

Let be a positive integer, let F be a family of meromorphic functions in a domain D, all of whose zeros have multiplicity at least k+1, and let , be two holomorphic functions on D. If, for each f∈F, f=a(z)⇔f(k)=h(z), then F is normal in D.     

Stable functions and Vietoris' theorem

An analytic function f(z) in the unit disc D is called stable if s_n(f,·)/f?1/f holds for all for . Here s_n stands for the nth partial sum of the Taylor expansion about the origin of f, and ? denotes the subordination of analytic functions in . We prove that (1−z)^λ, λ∈[−1,1], are stable. The stability of turns out to be equivalent to a famous result of Vietoris on non-negative trigonometric sums. We discuss some generalizations of these results, and related conjectures, always with an eye on applications to positivity results for trigonometric and other polynomials.     

Region of variability of two subclasses of univalent functions

Let F₁ (F₂ respectively) denote the class of analytic functions f in the unit disk |z|<1 with f(0)=0=f^′(0)−1 satisfying the condition RePf(z)<3/2 (RePf(z)>−1/2 respectively) in |z|<1, where Pf(z)=1+zf^″(z)/f^′(z). For any fixed z₀ in the unit disk and λ∈[0,1), we shall determine the region of variability for logf^′(z₀) when f ranges over the class and , respectively.     

About a condition for starlikeness

A condition for starlikeness will be improved given by the inequality Re(f^′(x)+αzf^″(z))>0, z∈U, concerning analytic functions of the form f(z)=z+a₂z²+? which are defined on the unit disk .     

Normal families of meromorphic functions with multiple zeros and poles

Let k be a positive integer with k?2 and let be a family of functions meromorphic on a domain D in , all of whose poles have multiplicity at least 3, and of whose zeros all have multiplicity at least k+1. Let a(z) be a function holomorphic on D, a(z)?0. Suppose that for each , f^(k)(z)≠a(z) for z∈D. Then is a normal family on D.     

On normal families and differential polynomials for meromorphic functions

We consider the normality criterion for a families F meromorphic in the unit disc Δ, and show that if there exist functions a(z) holomorphic in Δ, a(z)≠1, for each z∈Δ, such that there not only exists a positive number ε₀ such that |an(a(z)−1)−1|?ε₀ for arbitrary sequence of integers an(n∈N) and for any z∈Δ, but also exists a positive number B>0 such that for every f(z)∈F, B|f^′(z)|?|f(z)| whenever f(z)f^″(z)−a(z)(f^′2(z))=0 in Δ. Then is normal in Δ.     

On the period function for a family of complex differential equations

We consider planar differential equations of the form being f(z) and g(z) holomorphic functions and prove that if g(z) is not constant then for any continuum of period orbits the period function has at most one isolated critical period, which is a minimum. Among other implications, the paper extends a well-known result for meromorphic equations, that says that any continuum of periodic orbits has a constant period function.     

The generalized Roper-Suffridge extension operator

Let f(z) be a normalized convex (starlike) function on the unit disc D. Let , where z=(z₁,z₂,…,z_n), z₁∈D, , p_i?1, i=2,…,n, are real numbers. In this note, we prove that Φ(f)(z)=(f(z₁),f′(z₁)^1/p₂z₂,…,f′(z₁)^1/p_nz_n) is a normalized convex (starlike) mapping on Ω, where we choose the power function such that (f′(z₁))^1/p_i|_z1=0=1, i=2,…,n. Some other related results are proved.     

Composition operators from the Hardy space to the nth weighted-type space on the unit disk and the half-plane

The boundedness of the composition operator C_φf(z)=f(φ(z)) from the Hardy space , where X is the upper half-plane or the unit disk D={z∈C:|z|<1} in the complex plane C, to the nth weighted-type space, where φ is an analytic self-map of X, is characterized.     

Factors and vertex-deleted subgraphs

A relationship is considered between an f-factor of a graph and that of its vertex-deleted subgraphs. Katerinis [Some results on the existence of 2n-factors in terms of vertex-deleted subgraphs, Ars Combin. 16 (1983) 271-277] proved that for even integer k, if G-x has a k-factor for each x∈V(G), then G has a k-factor. Enomoto and Tokuda [Complete-factors and f-factors, Discrete Math. 220 (2000) 239-242] generalized Katerinis’ result to f-factors, and proved that if G-x has an f-factor for each x∈V(G), then G has an f-factor for an integer-valued function f defined on V(G) with even. In this paper, we consider a similar problem to that of Enomoto and Tokuda, where for several vertices x we do not have to know whether G-x has an f-factor. Let G be a graph, X be a set of vertices, and let f be an integer-valued function defined on V(G) with even, |V(G)-X|?2. We prove that if and if G-x has an f-factor for each x∈V(G)-X, then G has an f-factor. Moreover, if G excludes an isolated vertex, then we can replace the condition with . Furthermore the condition will be when |X|=1.     

Growth theorems and coefficient bounds for univalent holomorphic mappings which have parametric representation

Let B be the unit ball in Cn with respect to an arbitrary norm and let f(z,t) be a g-Loewner chain such that e−tf(z,t)−z has a zero of order k+1 at z=0. In this paper, we obtain growth and covering theorems for . Moreover, we consider coefficient bounds and examples of mappings in .
