Book Elliptic Partial Differential Equations and Quasiconformal Mappings in the Plane  PMS 48

Download or read book Elliptic Partial Differential Equations and Quasiconformal Mappings in the Plane PMS 48 written by Kari Astala and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-18 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the most recent developments in the theory of planar quasiconformal mappings with a particular focus on the interactions with partial differential equations and nonlinear analysis. It gives a thorough and modern approach to the classical theory and presents important and compelling applications across a spectrum of mathematics: dynamical systems, singular integral operators, inverse problems, the geometry of mappings, and the calculus of variations. It also gives an account of recent advances in harmonic analysis and their applications in the geometric theory of mappings. The book explains that the existence, regularity, and singular set structures for second-order divergence-type equations--the most important class of PDEs in applications--are determined by the mathematics underpinning the geometry, structure, and dimension of fractal sets; moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces; and conformal dynamical systems. These topics are inextricably linked by the theory of quasiconformal mappings. Further, the interplay between them allows the authors to extend classical results to more general settings for wider applicability, providing new and often optimal answers to questions of existence, regularity, and geometric properties of solutions to nonlinear systems in both elliptic and degenerate elliptic settings.

Book Univalent Functions and Teichm  ller Spaces

Download or read book Univalent Functions and Teichm ller Spaces written by O. Lehto and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph grew out of the notes relating to the lecture courses that I gave at the University of Helsinki from 1977 to 1979, at the Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule Zurich in 1980, and at the University of Minnesota in 1982. The book presumably would never have been written without Fred Gehring's continuous encouragement. Thanks to the arrangements made by Edgar Reich and David Storvick, I was able to spend the fall term of 1982 in Minneapolis and do a good part of the writing there. Back in Finland, other commitments delayed the completion of the text. At the final stages of preparing the manuscript, I was assisted first by Mika Seppala and then by Jouni Luukkainen, who both had a grant from the Academy of Finland. I am greatly indebted to them for the improvements they made in the text. I also received valuable advice and criticism from Kari Astala, Richard Fehlmann, Barbara Flinn, Fred Gehring, Pentti Jarvi, Irwin Kra, Matti Lehtinen, I1ppo Louhivaara, Bruce Palka, Kurt Strebel, Kalevi Suominen, Pekka Tukia and Kalle Virtanen. To all of them I would like to express my gratitude. Raili Pauninsalo deserves special thanks for her patience and great care in typing the manuscript. Finally, I thank the editors for accepting my text in Springer-Verlag's well known series. Helsinki, Finland June 1986 Olli Lehto Contents Preface. ... v Introduction ...

Book Harmonic Quasiconformal Mappings and Hyperbolic Type Metrics

Download or read book Harmonic Quasiconformal Mappings and Hyperbolic Type Metrics written by Vesna Todorčević and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-24 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents a research area in geometric function theory concerned with harmonic quasiconformal mappings and hyperbolic type metrics defined on planar and multidimensional domains. The classes of quasiconformal and quasiregular mappings are well established areas of study in this field as these classes are natural and fruitful generalizations of the class of analytic functions in the planar case. The book contains many concrete examples, as well as detailed proofs and explanations of motivations behind given results, gradually bringing the reader to the forefront of current research in the area. This monograph was written for a wide readership from graduate students of mathematical analysis to researchers working in this or related areas of mathematics who want to learn the tools or work on open problems listed in various parts of the book.

Book Handbook of Complex Analysis

Download or read book Handbook of Complex Analysis written by Reiner Kuhnau and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2004-12-09 with total page 876 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geometric Function Theory is that part of Complex Analysis which covers the theory of conformal and quasiconformal mappings. Beginning with the classical Riemann mapping theorem, there is a lot of existence theorems for canonical conformal mappings. On the other side there is an extensive theory of qualitative properties of conformal and quasiconformal mappings, concerning mainly a prior estimates, so called distortion theorems (including the Bieberbach conjecture with the proof of the Branges). Here a starting point was the classical Scharz lemma, and then Koebe's distortion theorem. There are several connections to mathematical physics, because of the relations to potential theory (in the plane). The Handbook of Geometric Function Theory contains also an article about constructive methods and further a Bibliography including applications eg: to electroxtatic problems, heat conduction, potential flows (in the plane). · A collection of independent survey articles in the field of GeometricFunction Theory · Existence theorems and qualitative properties of conformal and quasiconformal mappings · A bibliography, including many hints to applications in electrostatics, heat conduction, potential flows (in the plane).

Book The Ubiquitous Quasidisk

Download or read book The Ubiquitous Quasidisk written by Frederick W. Gehring and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on gathering the numerous properties and many different connections with various topics in geometric function theory that quasidisks possess. A quasidisk is the image of a disk under a quasiconformal mapping of the Riemann sphere. In 1981 Frederick W. Gehring gave a short course of six lectures on this topic in Montreal and his lecture notes ``Characteristic Properties of Quasidisks'' were published by the University Press of the University of Montreal. The notes became quite popular and within the next decade the number of characterizing properties of quasidisks and their ramifications increased tremendously. In the late 1990s Gehring and Hag decided to write an expanded version of the Montreal notes. At three times the size of the original notes, it turned into much more than just an extended version. New topics include two-sided criteria. The text will be a valuable resource for current and future researchers in various branches of analysis and geometry, and with its clear and elegant exposition the book can also serve as a text for a graduate course on selected topics in function theory. Frederick W. Gehring (1925-2012) was a leading figure in the theory of quasiconformal mappings for over fifty years. He received numerous awards and shared his passion for mathematics generously by mentoring twenty-nine Ph.D. students and more than forty postdoctoral fellows. Kari Hag received her Ph.D. under Gehring's direction in 1972 and worked with him on the present text for more than a decade.

Download or read book Geometric Group Theory written by Cornelia Druţu and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 841 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The key idea in geometric group theory is to study infinite groups by endowing them with a metric and treating them as geometric spaces. This applies to many groups naturally appearing in topology, geometry, and algebra, such as fundamental groups of manifolds, groups of matrices with integer coefficients, etc. The primary focus of this book is to cover the foundations of geometric group theory, including coarse topology, ultralimits and asymptotic cones, hyperbolic groups, isoperimetric inequalities, growth of groups, amenability, Kazhdan's Property (T) and the Haagerup property, as well as their characterizations in terms of group actions on median spaces and spaces with walls. The book contains proofs of several fundamental results of geometric group theory, such as Gromov's theorem on groups of polynomial growth, Tits's alternative, Stallings's theorem on ends of groups, Dunwoody's accessibility theorem, the Mostow Rigidity Theorem, and quasiisometric rigidity theorems of Tukia and Schwartz. This is the first book in which geometric group theory is presented in a form accessible to advanced graduate students and young research mathematicians. It fills a big gap in the literature and will be used by researchers in geometric group theory and its applications.

Book The Structure of Certain Quasisymmetric Groups

Download or read book The Structure of Certain Quasisymmetric Groups written by Aimo Hinkkanen and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1990 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A quasisymmetric mapping is a homeomorphism of the circle with the property that it does not distort cross ratios too badly. By a theorem of Beurling and Ahlfors such maps are precisely the boundary values of quasiconformal homeomorphisms of the disk. A group [italic]G of quasisymmetric mappings of the circle is called a quasisymmetric group if there is a uniform upper bound on the distortion of each [script lowercase]g in [italic]G. If this upper bound is [italic]K we call [italic]G a [italic]K-quasisymmetric group. In this paper the author continues the study of these groups, in particular the question of when such groups are quasisymmetrically conjugate to conformal groups.

This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let 8 be a Riemann surface of analytically finite type (9, n) with 29 2+n> O. Take two pointsP1, P2 E 8, and set 8,1>2= 8 \ {P1' P2}. Let PI Homeo+(8;P1,P2) be the group of all orientation preserving homeomor phismsw: 8 -+ 8 fixingP1, P2 and isotopic to the identity on 8. Denote byHomeot(8;Pb P2) the set of all elements ofHomeo+(8;P1, P2) iso topic to the identity on 8,P2' ThenHomeot(8;P1,P2) is a normal sub pl group ofHomeo+(8;P1,P2). We setIsot(8;P1,P2) =Homeo+(8;P1,P2)/ Homeot(8;p1, P2). The purpose of this note is to announce a result on the Nielsen Thurston-Bers type classification of an element [w] ofIsot+(8;P1,P2). We give a necessary and sufficient condition for thetypeto be hyperbolic. The condition is described in terms of properties of the pure braid [b] w induced by [w]. Proofs will appear elsewhere. The problem considered in this note and the form ofthe solution are suggested by Kra's beautiful theorem in [6], where he treats self-maps of Riemann surfaces with one specified point. 2 TheclassificationduetoBers Let us recall the classification of elements of the mapping class group due to Bers (see Bers [1]). LetT(R) be the Teichmiiller space of a Riemann surfaceR, andMod(R) be the Teichmtiller modular group of R. Note that an orientation preserving homeomorphism w: R -+ R induces canonically an element (w) EMod(R). Denote by & .r(R)(·, .) the Teichmiiller distance onT(R). For an elementXEMod(R), we define a(x)= inf & .r(R)(r, x(r)).
