On quasiconformal mappings of open Riemann surfaces.
In this paper we give characterizations of those holomorphic functions in the unit disc in the complex plane that can be written as a quotient of functions in A(D), A∞(D) or Λ1(D) with a nonvanishing denominator in D. As a consequence we prove that if f ∈ Λ1(D) does not vanish in D, then there exists g ∈ Λ1(D) which has the same zero set as f in Dbar and such that fg ∈ A∞(D).
A Bloch function g is a function analytic in the unit disk such that (1 - |z|2) |g' (z)| is bounded. First we generalize the theorem of Rohde that, for every bad Bloch function, g(rζ) (r → 1) follows any prescribed curve at a bounded distance for ζ in a set of Hausdorff dimension almost one. Then we introduce balanced Bloch functions. They are characterized by the fact that |g'(z)| does not vary much on each circle {|z| = r} except for small exceptional arcs. We show e.g. that∫01 |g'(rζ)|dr <...
Let ν be a compact Riemann surface and ν' be the complement in ν of a nonvoid finite subset. Let M(ν') be the field of meromorphic functions in ν'. In this paper we study the ramification divisors of the functions in M(ν') which have exponential singularities of finite degree at the points of ν-ν', and one proves, for instance, that if a function in M(ν') belongs to the subfield generated by the functions of this type, and has a finite ramification divisor, it also has a finite divisor. It is also...
The classical Descartes’ rule of signs limits the number of positive roots of a real polynomial in one variable by the number of sign changes in the sequence of its coefficients. One can ask the question which pairs of nonnegative integers , chosen in accordance with this rule and with some other natural conditions, can be the pairs of numbers of positive and negative roots of a real polynomial with prescribed signs of the coefficients. The paper solves this problem for degree polynomials.
