Univalent harmonic mappings with integer or half-integer coefficients

Let ${\mathcal S}$ denote the set of all univalent analytic functions $f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_n z^n$ on the unit disk $|z|<1$. In 1946 B. Friedman found that the set $\mathcal S$ of those functions which have integer coefficients consists of only nine functions. In a recent paper Hiranuma and Sugawa proved that the similar set obtained for the functions with half-integer coefficients consists of twelve functions in addition to the nine. In this paper, the main aim is to discuss the class of all sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings $f$ on the unit disk with integer or half-integer coefficients for the analytic and co-analytic parts of $f$. Secondly, we consider the class of univalent harmonic mappings with integer coefficients, and consider the convexity in real direction and convexity in imaginary direction of these mappings. Thirdly, we determine the set of univalent harmonic mappings with half-integer coefficients which are convex in real direction or convex in imaginary direction.Comment: 26 pages, 12 figures, The paper is submitted to a journa

Schwarz's Lemmas for mappings satisfying Poisson's equation

For $n\geq3$, $m\geq1$ and a given continuous function $g:~\Omega\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{m}$, we establish some Schwarz type lemmas for mappings $f$ of $\Omega$ into $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ satisfying the PDE: $\Delta f=g$, where $\Omega$ is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. Then we apply these results to obtain a Landau type theorem.Comment: 14 page

John disk and KK-quasiconformal harmonic mappings

On univalent log-harmonic mappings

We consider the class univalent log-harmonic mappings on the unit disk. Firstly, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for a complex-valued continuous function to be starlike or convex in the unit disk. Then we present a general idea, for example, to construct log-harmonic Koebe mapping, log-harmonic right half-plane mapping and log-harmonic two-slits mapping and then we show precise ranges of these mappings. Moreover, coefficient estimates for univalent log-harmonic starlike mappings are obtained. Growth and distortion theorems for certain special subclass of log-harmonic mappings are studied. Finally, we propose two conjectures, namely, log-harmonic coefficient and log-harmonic covering conjectures.Comment: 16 pages; This paper was with Studia Scientiarum Mathematicarum Hungarica since May 2017; Finally returned by saying that they could not find a suitable referee

Region of variability for functions with positive real part

For \gamma\in\IC such that $|\gamma|<\pi/2$ and $0\leq\beta<1$, let ${\mathcal P}_{\gamma,\beta}$ denote the class of all analytic functions $P$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ with $P(0)=1$ and {\rm Re\,} \left (e^{i\gamma}P(z)\right)>\beta\cos\gamma \quad \mbox{ in ${\mathbb D}$}. For any fixed $z_0\in\mathbb{D}$ and $\lambda\in\overline{\mathbb{D}}$, we shall determine the region of variability $V_{\mathcal{P}}(z_0,\lambda)$ for $\int_0^{z_0}P(\zeta)\,d\zeta$ when $P$ ranges over the class $$\mathcal{P}(\lambda) = \left\{ P\in{\mathcal P}_{\gamma,\beta} :\, P'(0)=2(1-\beta)\lambda e^{-i\gamma}\cos\gamma \right\}.$$ As a consequence, we present the region of variability for some subclasses of univalent functions. We also graphically illustrate the region of variability for several sets of parameters.Comment: 21 pages with 10 figures, to appear in 201

On the generalized Zalcman functional λan2−a2n−1\lambda a_n^2-a_{2n-1} in the close-to-convex family

Let ${\mathcal S}$ denote the class of all functions $f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_{n}z^{n}$ analytic and univalent in the unit disk \ID. For $f\in {\mathcal S}$, Zalcman conjectured that $|a_n^2-a_{2n-1}|\leq (n-1)^2$ for $n\geq 3$. This conjecture has been verified only certain values of $n$ for $f\in {\mathcal S}$ and for all $n\ge 4$ for the class $\mathcal C$ of close-to-convex functions (and also for a couple of other classes). In this paper we provide bounds of the generalized Zalcman coefficient functional $|\lambda a_n^2-a_{2n-1}|$ for functions in $\mathcal C$ and for all $n\ge 3$, where $\lambda$ is a positive constant. In particular, our special case settles the open problem on the Zalcman inequality for $f\in \mathcal C$ (i.e. for the case $\lambda =1$ and $n=3$).Comment: 14 pages.

Sharp inequalities for logarithmic coefficients and their applications

I. M. Milin proposed, in his 1971 paper, a system of inequalities for the logarithmic coefficients of normalized univalent functions on the unit disk of the complex plane. This is known as the Lebedev-Milin conjecture and implies the Robertson conjecture which in turn implies the Bieberbach conjecture. In 1984, Louis de Branges settled the long-standing Bieberbach conjecture by showing the Lebedev-Milin conjecture. Recently, O.~Roth proved an interesting sharp inequality for the logarithmic coefficients based on the proof by de Branges. In this paper, following Roth's ideas, we will show more general sharp inequalities with convex sequences as weight functions and then establish several consequences of them. We also consider the inequality with the help of de Branges system of linear ODE for non-convex sequences where the proof is partly assisted by computer. Also, we apply some of those inequalities to improve previously known results.Comment: 20 pages, 4 figure

Bohr radius for subordination and KK-quasiconformal harmonic mappings

The present article concerns the Bohr radius for $K$-quasiconformal sense-preserving harmonic mappings $f=h+\overline{g}$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ for which the analytic part $h$ is subordinated to some analytic function $\varphi$, and the purpose is to look into two cases: when $\varphi$ is convex, or a general univalent function in \ID. The results state that if $h(z) =\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_n z^n$ and $g(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}b_n z^n$, then \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(|a_n|+|b_n|)r^n\leq \dist (\varphi(0),\partial\varphi(\ID)) ~\mbox{ for $r\leq r^*$} and give estimates for the largest possible $r^*$ depending only on the geometric property of \varphi (\ID) and the parameter $K$. Improved versions of the theorems are given for the case when $b_1 = 0$ and corollaries are drawn for the case when $K\rightarrow \infty$.Comment: 15 pages; To appear in Bulletin of the Malaysian Mathematical Sciences Societ

On Harmonic ν\nu-Bloch and ν\nu-Bloch-type mappings

The aim of this paper is twofold. One is to introduce the class of harmonic $\nu$-Bloch-type mappings as a generalization of harmonic $\nu$-Bloch mappings and thereby we generalize some recent results of harmonic $1$-Bloch-type mappings investigated recently by Efraimidis et al. \cite{EGHV}. The other is to investigate some subordination principles for harmonic Bloch mappings and then establish Bohr's theorem for these mappings and in a general setting, in some cases.Comment: 17 pages; Comments are welcom

Uniformly locally univalent harmonic mappings associated with the pre-Schwarzian norm

In this paper, we consider the class of uniformly locally univalent harmonic mappings in the unit disk and build a relationship between its pre-Schwarzian norm and uniformly hyperbolic radius. Also, we establish eight ways of characterizing uniformly locally univalent sense-preserving harmonic mappings. We also present some sharp distortions and growth estimates and investigate their connections with Hardy spaces. Finally, we study subordination principles of norm estimates.Comment: 28 pages; The article is to appear in Indagationes Mathematica
