We shall be concerned in this paper with an optimization problem of the form: J(f) → min(max) subject to f ∈ 𝓕 where 𝓕 is some family of complex functions that are analytic in the unit disc. For this problem, the question about its characteristic properties is considered. The possibilities of applications of the results of general optimization theory to such a problem are also examined.

The purpose of this paper is to study the class ${*}_{\infty }\left(ℍ\right)$ of univalent analytic functions defined in the right halfplane ℍ and starlike w.r.t. the boundary point at infinity. An analytic characterization of functions in ${*}_{\infty }\left(ℍ\right)$ is presented.

We consider the class 𝓩(k;w), k ∈ [0,2], w ∈ ℂ, of plane domains Ω called k-starlike with respect to the point w. An analytic characterization of regular and univalent functions f such that f(U) is in 𝓩(k;w), where w ∈ f(U), is presented. In particular, for k = 0 we obtain the well known analytic condition for a function f to be starlike w.r.t. w, i.e. to be regular and univalent in U and have f(U) starlike w.r.t. w ∈ f(U).

We prove, in a general framework, the existence of a closed infinite-dimensional subspace consisting of universal series.

Let S(b) be the class of bounded normalized univalent functions and Σ(b) the class of normalized univalent meromorphic functions omitting a disc with radius b. The close connection between these classes allows shifting the coefficient body information from the former to the latter. The first non-trivial body can be determined in Σ(b) as well as the next one in the real subclass ${\Sigma }_R\left(b\right)$.

Let $E={\bigcup }_{n=1}^{\infty }{I}_n$ be the union of infinitely many disjoint closed intervals where $I_n=[a_n$, $b_n]$, $0<a_1<b_1<a_2<b_2<\cdots <b_n<\cdots$, ${lim}_{n\to \infty }{b}_n=\infty .$ Let $\alpha \left(t\right)$ be a nonnegative function and ${\left\{{\lambda }_n\right\}}_{n=1}^{\infty }$ a sequence of distinct complex numbers. In this paper, a theorem on the completeness of the system $\left\{t^{{\lambda }_n}{log}^{m_n}t\right\}$ in $C_0\left(E\right)$ is obtained where $C_0\left(E\right)$ is the weighted Banach space consists of complex functions continuous on $E$ with $f\left(t\right){\mathrm{e}}^{-\alpha \left(t\right)}$ vanishing at infinity.

We give a simple algebraic condition on the leading homogeneous term of a polynomial mapping from ℝ² into ℝ² which is equivalent to the fact that the complexification of this mapping can be extended to a polynomial endomorphism of ℂℙ². We also prove that this extension acts on ℂℙ²∖ℂ² as a quotient of finite Blaschke products.

We construct an infinite uniform Frostman Blaschke product B such that B ∘ B is also a uniform Frostman Blaschke product. We also show that the set of uniform Frostman Blaschke products is open in the set of inner functions with the uniform norm.

The paper deals with the computation of Aden functions. It gives estimates of errors for the computation of Aden functions by downward reccurence.

In this article we study the Ahlfors regular conformal gauge of a compact metric space $(X,d)$, and its conformal dimension ${dim}_{AR}(X,d)$. Using a sequence of finite coverings of $(X,d)$, we construct distances in its Ahlfors regular conformal gauge of controlled Hausdorff dimension. We obtain in this way a combinatorial description, up to bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms, of all the metrics in the gauge. We show how to compute ${dim}_{AR}(X,d)$ using the critical exponent $Q_N$ associated to the combinatorial modulus.
