Let $u$ be a holomorphic function and $\varphi$ a holomorphic self-map of the open unit disk $𝔻$ in the complex plane. We provide new characterizations for the boundedness of the weighted composition operators $u{C}_{\varphi }$ from Zygmund type spaces to Bloch type spaces in $𝔻$ in terms of $u$, $\varphi$, their derivatives, and ${\varphi }^n$, the $n$-th power of $\varphi$. Moreover, we obtain some similar estimates for the essential norms of the operators $u{C}_{\varphi }$, from which sufficient and necessary conditions of compactness of $u{C}_{\varphi }$ follows immediately. ...

Let $X$ denote either ${\mathrm{ℂ\mathbb{P}}}^m$ or ${ℂ}^m$. We study certain analytic properties of the space ${ℰ}^n(X,gp)$ of ordered geometrically generic $n$-point configurations in $X$. This space consists of all $q=(q_1,\cdots ,q_n)\in X^n$ such that no $m+1$ of the points $q_1,\cdots ,q_n$ belong to a hyperplane in $X$. In particular, we show that for a big enough $n$ any holomorphic map $f:{ℰ}^n({\mathrm{ℂ\mathbb{P}}}^m,gp)\to {ℰ}^n({\mathrm{ℂ\mathbb{P}}}^m,gp)$ commuting with the natural action of the symmetric group $𝐒\left(n\right)$ in ${ℰ}^n({\mathrm{ℂ\mathbb{P}}}^m,gp)$ is of the form $f\left(q\right)=\tau \left(q\right)q=(\tau \left(q\right)q_1,\cdots ,\tau \left(q\right)q_n)$, $q\in {ℰ}^n({\mathrm{ℂ\mathbb{P}}}^m,gp)$, where $\tau :{ℰ}^n({\mathrm{ℂ\mathbb{P}}}^m,gp)\to \mathrm{𝐏𝐒𝐋}(m+1,ℂ)$ is an $𝐒\left(n\right)$-invariant holomorphic map. A similar result holds true for mappings of the configuration...

We give in ${ℝ}^6$ a real analytic almost complex structure $J$, a real analytic hypersurface $M$ and a vector $v$ in the Levi null set at $0$ of $M$, such that there is no germ of $J$-holomorphic disc $\gamma$ included in $M$ with $\gamma \left(0\right)=0$ and $\frac{\partial \gamma }{\partial x}\left(0\right)=v$, although the Levi form of $M$ has constant rank. Then for any hypersurface $M$ and any complex structure $J$, we give sufficient conditions under which there exists such a germ of disc.

Let $f$ be a non-invertible holomorphic endomorphism of a projective space and $f^n$ its iterate of order $n$. We prove that the pull-back by $f^n$ of a generic (in the Zariski sense) hypersurface, properly normalized, converges to the Green current associated to $f$ when $n$ tends to infinity. We also give an analogous result for the pull-back of positive closed $(1,1)$-currents and a similar result for regular polynomial automorphisms of ${ℂ}^k$.

Following the line of Ouyang et al. (1998) to study the ${}_p$ spaces of holomorphic functions in the unit ball of ℂⁿ, we present in this paper several results and relations among ${}_p\left(ₙ\right)$, the α-Bloch, the Dirichlet ${}_p$ and the little ${}_{p,0}$ spaces.

Let $D_j$ be a bounded hyperconvex domain in ${ℂ}^{n_j}$ and set $D=D₁\times \cdots \times D_s$, j=1,...,s, s ≥ 3. Also let ${\Omega }_{\pi }$ be the image of D under the proper holomorphic map π. We characterize those continuous functions $f:\partial {\Omega }_{\pi }\to ℝ$ that can be extended to a real-valued pluriharmonic function in ${\Omega }_{\pi }$.

Let $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^n,n\ge 3$, and let $p,1<p<\infty ,p\ne 2$, be given. In this paper we study the dimension of $p$-harmonic measures that arise from non-negative solutions to the $p$-Laplace equation, vanishing on a portion of $\partial \Omega$, in the setting of $\delta$-Reifenberg flat domains. We prove, for $p\ge n$, that there exists $\tilde{\delta }=\tilde{\delta }(p,n)>0$ small such that if $\Omega$ is a $\delta$-Reifenberg flat domain with $\delta <\tilde{\delta }$, then $p$-harmonic measure is concentrated on a set of $\sigma$-finite $H^{n-1}$-measure. We prove, for $p\ge n$, that for sufficiently flat Wolff snowflakes the Hausdorff dimension of $p$-harmonic...

Let $D$ be an open set of a Stein manifold $X$ of dimension $n$ such that $H^k(D,𝒪)=0$ for $2\le k\le n-1$. We prove that $D$ is Stein if and only if every topologically trivial holomorphic line bundle $L$ on $D$ is associated to some Cartier divisor $𝔡$ on $D$.

We discuss the existence of the current $g^{k}T$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$ for positive and closed currents $T$ and unbounded plurisubharmonic functions $g$. Furthermore, a new type of weighted Lelong number is introduced under the name of weight $k$ Lelong number.

We study the extension problem for germs of holomorphic isometries $f:(D;x_0)\to (\Omega ;f\left(x_0\right))$ up to normalizing constants between bounded domains in Euclidean spaces equipped with Bergman metrics $d{s}_D^2$ on $D$ and $d{s}_{\Omega }^2$ on $\Omega$. Our main focus is on boundary extension for pairs of bounded domains $(D,\Omega )$ such that the Bergman kernel $K_D(z,w)$ extends meromorphically in $(z,\overline{w})$ to a neighborhood of $\overline{D}\times D$, and such that the analogous statement holds true for the Bergman kernel $K_{\Omega }(\varsigma ,\xi )$ on $\Omega$. Assuming that $(D;d{s}_D^2)$ and $(\Omega ;d{s}_{\Omega }^2)$ are complete Kähler manifolds, we prove that...

In 1984 J. Clunie and T. Sheil-Small proved ([2, Corollary 5.8]) that for any complex-valued and sense-preserving injective harmonic mapping $F$ in the unit disk $𝔻$, if $F\left(𝔻\right)$ is a convex domain, then the inequality $|G\left(z_2\right)-G\left(z_1\right)|<|H\left(z_2\right)-H\left(z_1\right)|$ holds for all distinct points $z_1,z_2\in 𝔻$. Here $H$ and $G$ are holomorphic mappings in $𝔻$ determined by $F=H+\overline{G}$, up to a constant function. We extend this inequality by replacing the unit disk by an arbitrary nonempty domain $\Omega$ in $ℂ$ and improve it provided $F$ is additionally a quasiconformal mapping...

We study questions related to exceptional sets of pluri-Green potentials $V_{\mu }$ in the unit ball B of ℂⁿ in terms of non-isotropic Hausdorff capacity. For suitable measures μ on the ball B, the pluri-Green potentials $V_{\mu }$ are defined by $V_{\mu }\left(z\right)={\int }_{B}log(1/|{\varphi }_z\left(w\right)\left|\right)d\mu \left(w\right)$, where for a fixed z ∈ B, ${\varphi }_z$ denotes the holomorphic automorphism of B satisfying ${\varphi }_z\left(0\right)=z$, ${\varphi }_z\left(z\right)=0$ and $\left({\varphi }_z\circ {\varphi }_z\right)\left(w\right)=w$ for every w ∈ B. If dμ(w) = f(w)dλ(w), where f is a non-negative measurable function of B, and λ is the measure on B, invariant under all holomorphic automorphisms of...

We study the boundedness of the one-sided operator $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$ between the weighted spaces $L^p\left(M¯w\right)$ and $L^p\left(w\right)$ for every weight w. If λ = 2/p whenever 1 < p < 2, and in the case p = 1 for λ > 2, we prove the weak type of $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$. For every λ > 1 and p = 2, or λ > 2/p and 1 < p < 2, the boundedness of this operator is obtained. For p > 2 and λ > 1, we obtain the boundedness of $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$ from $L^p\left({\left(M¯\right)}^{[p/2]+1}w\right)$ to $L^p\left(w\right)$, where ${\left(M¯\right)}^k$ denotes the operator M¯ iterated k times.

We consider the class ${\mathscr{H}}_0$ of sense-preserving harmonic functions $f=h+\overline{g}$ defined in the unit disk $\left|z\right|<1$ and normalized so that $h\left(0\right)=0=h^{\text{'}}\left(0\right)-1$ and $g\left(0\right)=0=g^{\text{'}}\left(0\right)$, where $h$ and $g$ are analytic in the unit disk. In the first part of the article we present two classes ${𝒫}_H^0\left(\alpha \right)$ and ${𝒢}_H^0\left(\beta \right)$ of functions from ${\mathscr{H}}_0$ and show that if $f\in {𝒫}_H^0\left(\alpha \right)$ and $F\in {𝒢}_H^0\left(\beta \right)$, then the harmonic convolution is a univalent and close-to-convex harmonic function in the unit disk provided certain conditions for parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are satisfied. In the second part we study the harmonic sections...

Let ${}_{\infty }\left(B_X\right)$ be the Banach space of all bounded and continuous functions on the closed unit ball $B_X$ of a complex Banach space X and holomorphic on the open unit ball, with sup norm, and let ${}_u\left(B_X\right)$ be the subspace of ${}_{\infty }\left(B_X\right)$ of those functions which are uniformly continuous on $B_X$. A subset $B\subset B_X$ is a boundary for ${}_{\infty }\left(B_X\right)$ if $\parallel f\parallel =su{p}_{x\in B}\left|f\left(x\right)\right|$ for every $f{\in }_{\infty }\left(B_X\right)$. We prove that for X = d(w,1) (the Lorentz sequence space) and X = C₁(H), the trace class operators, there is a minimal closed boundary for ${}_{\infty }\left(B_X\right)$. On the other hand, for X = , the Schreier...

Let $E$ denote a holomorphic bundle with fiber $D$ and with basis $B$. Both $D$ and $B$ are assumed to be Stein. For $D$ a Reinhardt bounded domain of dimension $d=2$ or $3$, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on $D$ for the existence of a non-Stein such $E$ (Theorem $1$); for $d=2$, we give necessary and sufficient criteria for $E$ to be Stein (Theorem $2$). For $D$ a Reinhardt bounded domain of any dimension not intersecting any coordinate hyperplane, we give a sufficient criterion for $E$ to be Stein (Theorem...

The harmonic Cesàro operator is defined for a function f in $L^p\left(ℝ\right)$ for some 1 ≤ p < ∞ by setting $\left(f\right)\left(x\right):={\int }_x^{\infty }(f\left(u\right)/u)du$ for x > 0 and $\left(f\right)\left(x\right):=-{\int }_{-\infty }^x(f\left(u\right)/u)du$ for x < 0; the harmonic Copson operator ℂ* is defined for a function f in $L{¹}_{loc}\left(ℝ\right)$ by setting $*\left(f\right)\left(x\right):=(1/x){\int }^{x₀}f\left(u\right)du$ for x ≠ 0. The notation indicates that ℂ and ℂ* are adjoint operators in a certain sense. We present rigorous proofs of the following two commuting relations: (i) If $f\in L^p\left(ℝ\right)$ for some 1 ≤ p ≤ 2, then ${\left(\left(f\right)\right)}^{\wedge }\left(t\right)=*\left(f̂\right)\left(t\right)$ a.e., where f̂ denotes the Fourier transform of f. (ii) If $f\in L^p\left(ℝ\right)$ for some 1 < p ≤ 2, then...

We consider a convexity notion for complex spaces $X$ with respect to a holomorphic line bundle $L$ over $X$. This definition has been introduced by Grauert and, when $L$ is analytically trivial, we recover the standard holomorphic convexity. In this circle of ideas, we prove the counterpart of the classical Remmert’s reduction result for holomorphically convex spaces. In the same vein, we show that if $H^0(X,L)$ separates each point of $X$, then $X$ can be realized as a Riemann domain over the complex projective...
