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...

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 $W$ be the subspace of ${\mathbb{N}}^{*}$ consisting of all weak $P$-points. It is not hard to see that $W$ is a pseudocompact space. In this paper we shall prove that this space has stronger pseudocompact properties. Indeed, it is shown that $W$ is a $p$-pseudocompact space for all $p\in {\mathbb{N}}^{*}$.

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...

Let $(X,d,\mu )$ be a metric measure space satisfying the doubling condition and an $L^2$-Poincaré inequality. Consider the nonnegative operator $ℒ$ generalized by a Dirichlet form on $X$. We will show that a solution $u$ to $(-{\partial }_t^2+ℒ)u=0$ on $X\times {ℝ}_{+}$ satisfies an $\alpha$-Carleson condition if and only if $u$ can be represented as the Poisson integral of the operator $ℒ$ with the trace in the generalized Morrey space $L^{2,\alpha }\left(X\right)$, where $\alpha$ is a nonnegative function defined on a class of balls in $X$. This result extends the analogous characterization...

Let $X$ be the Tychonoff product ${\prod }_{\alpha <\tau }{X}_{\alpha }$ of $\tau$-many Tychonoff non-single point spaces $X_{\alpha }$. Let $p\in X^{*}$ be a point in the closure of some $G\subset X$ whose weak Lindelöf number is strictly less than the cofinality of $\tau$. Then we show that $\beta X\setminus \left\{p\right\}$ is not normal. Under some additional assumptions, $p$ is a butterfly-point in $\beta X$. In particular, this is true if either $X={\omega }^{\tau }$ or $X=R^{\tau }$ and $\tau$ is infinite and not countably cofinal.

In this paper we study some potential theoretical properties of solutions and super-solutions of some PDE systems (S) of type $L_{1}u=-{\mu }_{1}v$, $L_{2}v=-{\mu }_{2}u$, on a domain $D$ of ${ℝ}^d$, where ${\mu }_1$ and ${\mu }_2$ are suitable measures on $D$, and $L_1$, $L_2$ are two second order linear differential elliptic operators on $D$ with coefficients of class ${𝒞}^{\infty }$. We also obtain the integral representation of the nonnegative solutions and supersolutions of the system (S) by means of the Green kernels and Martin boundaries associated with $L_1$ and $L_2$, and...

Let us consider two closed surfaces $ℳ$, $𝒩$ of class $C^1$ and two functions $\varphi :ℳ\to ℝ$, $\psi :𝒩\to ℝ$ of class $C^1$, called measuring functions. The natural pseudodistance $d$ between the pairs $(ℳ,)$, $(𝒩,\psi )$ is defined as the infimum of $\Theta \left(f\right):={max}_{P\in ℳ}\left|\varphi \left(P\right)-\psi \left(f\left(P\right)\right)\right|$ as $f$ varies in the set of all homeomorphisms from $ℳ$ onto $𝒩$. In this paper we prove that the natural pseudodistance equals either $|c_1-c_2|$, $\frac{1}{2}\left|c_1-c_2\right|$, or $\frac{1}{3}\left|c_1-c_2\right|$, where $c_1$ and $c_2$ are two suitable critical values of the measuring functions. This shows that a previous relation between the natural pseudodistance and...

For each n ≥ 1, let $v_{n,k},k\ge 1$ and $u_{n,k},k\ge 1$ be mutually independent sequences of nonnegative random variables and let each of them consist of mutually independent and identically distributed random variables with means v̅ₙ and u̅̅ₙ, respectively. Let $X{ₙ}^B\left(t\right)=(1/cₙ){\sum }_{j=1}^{\left[nt\right]}(v_{n,j}-v̅ₙ)$, $X{ₙ}^A\left(t\right)=(1/cₙ){\sum }_{j=1}^{\left[nt\right]}(u_{n,j}-u̅̅ₙ)$, t ≥ 0, and $Xₙ=X{ₙ}^B-X{ₙ}^A$. The main result gives conditions under which the weak convergence $Xₙ\stackrel{}{\to }X$, where X is a Lévy process, implies $X{ₙ}^B\stackrel{}{\to }{X}^B$ and $X{ₙ}^A\stackrel{}{\to }{X}^A$, where $X^B$ and $X^A$ are mutually independent Lévy processes and $X=X^B-X^A$.

For $X,Y\in {𝐌}_{n,m}$ it is said that $X$ is gut-majorized by $Y$, and we write $X{\prec }_{\mathrm{gut}}Y$, if there exists an $n$-by-$n$ upper triangular g-row stochastic matrix $R$ such that $X=RY$. Define the relation ${\sim }_{\mathrm{gut}}$ as follows. $X{\sim }_{\mathrm{gut}}Y$ if $X$ is gut-majorized by $Y$ and $Y$ is gut-majorized by $X$. The (strong) linear preservers of ${\prec }_{\mathrm{gut}}$ on ${ℝ}^n$ and strong linear preservers of this relation on ${𝐌}_{n,m}$ have been characterized before. This paper characterizes all (strong) linear preservers and strong linear preservers of ${\sim }_{\mathrm{gut}}$ on ${ℝ}^n$ and ${𝐌}_{n,m}$.

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...
