Rectangles and Quasiconformal Mappings.
A new connection between geometric function theory and number theory is derived from Ramanujan’s work on modular equations. This connection involves the function recurrent in the theory of plane quasiconformal maps. Ramanujan’s modular identities yield numerous new functional identities for for various primes p.
The Grunsky and Teichmüller norms ϰ(f) and k(f) of a holomorphic univalent function f in a finitely connected domain D ∋ ∞ with quasiconformal extension to are related by ϰ(f) ≤ k(f). In 1985, Jürgen Moser conjectured that any univalent function in the disk Δ* = z: |z| > 1 can be approximated locally uniformly by functions with ϰ(f) < k(f). This conjecture has been recently proved by R. Kühnau and the author. In this paper, we prove that approximation is possible in a stronger sense, namely,...
Some inequalities related to the submultiplicative properties of the distortion function are derived.
In this paper we introduce a class of increasing homeomorphic self-mappings of R. We define a harmonic extension of such functions to the upper halfplane by means of the Poisson integral. Our main results give some sufficient conditions for quasiconformality of the extension.
