Univalent functions of given transfinite diameter: A maximum modulus problem.
It is known that univalence property of regular functions is better understood in terms of some restrictions of logarithmic type. Such restrictions are connected with natural stratifications of the studied classes of univalent functions. The stratification of the basic class S of functions regular and univalent in the unit disk by the Grunsky operator norm as well as the more general one of the class 𝔐 * of pairs of univalent functions without common values by the τ-norm (this concept is introduced...
Let a < 0, Ω = ℂ -(-∞, a] and U = z: |z| < 1. We consider the class of functions f which are univalent, harmonic and sense preserving with f(U) = Ω and satisfy f(0) = 0, and . We describe the closure of and determine the extreme points of .
Let a < 0 < b and Ω(a,b) = ℂ - ((-∞, a] ∪ [b,+∞)) and U= z: |z| < 1. We consider the class of functions f which are univalent, harmonic and sense-preserving with f(U) = Ω and satisfying f(0) = 0, and .
This paper is part of a larger project initiated with [2]. The final aim of the present paper is to give bounds for the homogenized (or effective) conductivity in two dimensional linear conductivity. The main focus is therefore the periodic setting. We prove new variational principles that are shown to be of interest in finding bounds on the homogenized conductivity. Our results unify previous approaches by the second author and make transparent the central role of quasiconformal mappings in all...

We complete the proof of a conjecture of Vitushkin that says that if E is a compact set in the complex plane with finite 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure, then E has vanishing analytic capacity (i.e., all bounded anlytic functions on the complement of E are constant) if and only if E is purely unrectifiable (i.e., the intersection of E with any curve of finite length has zero 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure). As in a previous paper with P. Mattila, the proof relies on a rectifiability criterion using...
