Sharp norm estimate of Schwarzian derivative for a class of convex functions

Stanisława Kanas, Toshiyuki Sugawa (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We establish a sharp norm estimate of the Schwarzian derivative for a function in the classes of convex functions introduced by Ma and Minda [Proceedings of the Conference on Complex Analysis, Int. Press, 1992, 157-169]. As applications, we give sharp norm estimates for strongly convex functions of order α, 0 < α < 1, and for uniformly convex functions.

Short separating geodesics for multiply connected domains

Mark Comerford (2011)

Open Mathematics

We consider the following questions: given a hyperbolic plane domain and a separation of its complement into two disjoint closed sets each of which contains at least two points, what is the shortest closed hyperbolic geodesic which separates these sets and is it a simple closed curve? We show that a shortest geodesic always exists although in general it may not be simple. However, one can also always find a shortest simple curve and we call such a geodesic a meridian of the domain. We prove that,...

Simple sufficient conditions for starlikeness and convexity for meromorphic functions

Pranay Goswami, Teodor Bulboacă, Rubayyi T. Alqahtani (2016)

Open Mathematics

In this paper we investigate some extensions of sufficient conditions for meromorphic multivalent functions in the open unit disk to be meromorphic multivalent starlike and convex of order α. Our results unify and extend some starlikeness and convexity conditions for meromorphic multivalent functions obtained by Xu et al. [2], and some interesting special cases are given.

Singular functions on metric measure spaces.

Ilkka Holopainen, Nageswari Shanmugalingam (2002)

Collectanea Mathematica

On relatively compact domains in metric measure spaces we construct singular functions that play the role of Green functions of the p-Laplacian. We give a characterization of metric spaces that support a global version of such singular function, in terms of capacity estimates at infinity of such metric spaces. In addition, when the measure of the space is locally Q-regular, we study quasiconformal invariance property associated with the existence of global singular functions.
