A notion of negligible sets for polydiscs is introduced. Some properties of non-negligible sets are proved. These results are used to construct good and good inner functions on polydiscs.

Let E₀, E₁ be two subsets of the closure D̅ of a domain D of the Euclidean n-space ${ℝ}^n$ and Γ(E₀,E₁,D) the family of arcs joining E₀ to E₁ in D. We establish new cases of equality $M_p\Gamma (E₀,E₁,D)=ca{p}_p(E₀,E₁,D)$, where $M_p\Gamma (E₀,E₁,D)$ is the p-module of the arc family Γ(E₀,E₁,D), while $ca{p}_p(E₀,E₁,D)$ is the p-capacity of E₀,E₁ relative to D and p > 1. One of these cases is when p = n, E̅₀ ∩ E̅₁ = ∅, $E_i=E_i^{\text{'}}\cup E_i^{\text{'}\text{'}}\cup E_i^{\text{'}\text{'}\text{'}}\cup F_i$, $E_i^{\text{'}}$ is inaccessible from D by rectifiable arcs, $E_i^{\text{'}\text{'}}$ is open relative to D̅ or to the boundary ∂D of D, $E_i^{\text{'}\text{'}\text{'}}$ is at most countable, $F_i$ is closed (i = 0,1) and D...

We construct a nonbasic harmonic mapping of the unit disk onto a convex wedge. This mapping satisfies the partial differential equation $f_{\overline{z}}=a{f}_z$ where a(z) is a nontrivial extreme point of the unit ball of $H^{\infty }$.

We obtain upper and lower estimates for the Green function for a second order noncoercive differential operator on a homogeneous manifold of negative curvature.

We study questions related to exceptional sets of pluri-Green potentials $V_{\mu }$ in the unit ball B of ℂⁿ in terms of non-isotropic Hausdorff capacity. For suitable measures μ on the ball B, the pluri-Green potentials $V_{\mu }$ are defined by $V_{\mu }\left(z\right)={\int }_{B}log(1/|{\varphi }_z\left(w\right)\left|\right)d\mu \left(w\right)$, where for a fixed z ∈ B, ${\varphi }_z$ denotes the holomorphic automorphism of B satisfying ${\varphi }_z\left(0\right)=z$, ${\varphi }_z\left(z\right)=0$ and $\left({\varphi }_z\circ {\varphi }_z\right)\left(w\right)=w$ for every w ∈ B. If dμ(w) = f(w)dλ(w), where f is a non-negative measurable function of B, and λ is the measure on B, invariant under all holomorphic automorphisms of B, then $V_{\mu }$...

Motivated by a mathematical model of an age structured proliferating cell population, we state some new variants of Leray-Schauder type fixed point theorems for (ws)-compact operators. Further, we apply our results to establish some new existence and locality principles for nonlinear boundary value problem arising in the theory of growing cell population in L 1-setting. Besides, a topological structure of the set of solutions is provided.

Si dimostra con esempi che la distanza di Hausdorff-Carathéodory fra i valori di funzioni multivoche, analitiche secondo Oka, non è subarmonica.
