Embedded minimal surfaces derived from Scherk's Examples.
The aim of the paper is to discuss the extreme points of subordination and weak subordination families of harmonic mappings. Several necessary conditions and sufficient conditions for harmonic mappings to be extreme points of the corresponding families are established.
We introduce an infinite sequence of higher order Schwarzian derivatives closely related to the theory of monotone matrix functions. We generalize the classical Koebe lemma to maps with positive Schwarzian derivatives up to some order, obtaining control over derivatives of high order. For a large class of multimodal interval maps we show that all inverse branches of first return maps to sufficiently small neighbourhoods of critical values have their higher order Schwarzian derivatives positive up...
We consider the class of sense-preserving harmonic functions defined in the unit disk and normalized so that and , where and are analytic in the unit disk. In the first part of the article we present two classes and of functions from and show that if and , then the harmonic convolution is a univalent and close-to-convex harmonic function in the unit disk provided certain conditions for parameters and are satisfied. In the second part we study the harmonic sections (partial...
The Cauchy integral method has been applied to derive exact and closed expressions for Goursat's functions for the first and second fundamental problems for an infinite thermoelastic plate weakened by a hole having arbitrary shape. The plate considered is conformally mapped to the area of the right half-plane. Many previous discussions of various authors can be considered as special cases of this work. The shape of the hole being an ellipse, a crescent, a triangle, or a cut having the shape of a...
