Abstract

:
This paper is devoted to a generalization of the well-known Fekete-Szegö type coefficients problem for holomorphic functions of a complex variable onto holomorphic functions of several variables. The considerations concern three families of such functions f, which are bounded, having positive real part and which Temljakov transform L f has positive real part, respectively. The main result arise some sharp estimates of the Minkowski balance of a combination of 2-homogeneous and the square of 1-homogeneous polynomials occurred in power series expansion of functions from aforementioned families.

1. Introduction

Since the several complex variables geometric analysis depends on the type of domains in C n (see for instance References [1,2,3]), we consider a special, but wide class of domains in C n . We say that a domain G C n , n 1 , is complete n-circular if z λ = ( z 1 λ 1 , , z n λ n ) G for each z = ( z 1 , , z n ) G and every λ = ( λ 1 , , λ n ) U n ¯ , where U n is the open unit polydisc in C n , that is, the product of n copies of the open unit disc U = ζ C : ζ < 1 . From now on by G will be denoted a bounded complete n-circular domain in C n , n 1 . Such bounded domain G and its boundary G can be redefined as follows
G = { z C n : μ G ( z ) < 1 } , G = { z C n : μ G ( z ) = 1 } ,
using the Minkowski function μ G : C n [ 0 , )
μ G ( z ) = i n f { t > 0 : 1 t z G } , z C n .
It is well-known (see e.g, Reference [4]) that μ G is a norm in C n if G is a convex bounded complete n-circular domain.
The function μ G is very useful in research the space H G of holomorphic functions f : G C . By H G ( 1 ) will be denoted the collection of all f H G , normalized by the condition f ( 0 ) = 1 . In the paper we consider the following subfamilies of H G
B G = f H G : | f ( z ) | < 1 , z G , C G = { f H G ( 1 ) : Re f ( z ) > 0 , z G } , V G = f H G ( 1 ) : Re L f ( z ) > 0 , z G ,
where L : H G H G means the Temljakov [5] linear operator
L f ( z ) = f ( z ) + D f ( z ) ( z ) , z G ,
defined by the Frechet differential D f ( z ) of f at the point z . Note that the operator L is invertible and its inverse has the form
L 1 f ( z ) = 0 1 f ( z t ) d t , z G .
Let us recall that every function f H G has a unique power series expansion
f ( z ) = m = 0 Q f , m ( z ) , z G ,
where Q f , m : C n C , m N 0 , are m-homogeneous polynomials. Usually the notion of m-homogeneous polynomial Q m : C n C is defined by the formula
Q m ( z ) = L m ( z m ) = L m ( z , , z ) , z C n ,
where L m : C n m C is an m-linear mapping ( 0 -homogeneous polynomial means a constant function Q 0 : C n C ) . Note that the homogeneous polynomials occured in the expansion (1) have the form
Q f , m ( z ) = 1 m ! D m f ( 0 ) ( z m ) .
A simple kind of 1-homogeneous polynomial is the following linear functional J C n *
J ( z ) = j = 1 n z j , z = ( z 1 , , z n ) C n .
We will use the following generalization of the notion of the norm of m-homogeneous polynomial Q m : C n C , that is, the μ G -balance of Q m [6,7,8]
μ G ( Q m ) = sup w C n { 0 } Q m ( w ) ( μ G ( w ) ) m = sup v G Q m ( v ) = sup u G Q m ( u ) ,
which is identical with the norm Q m if G is convex. The notion μ G -balance of m-homogeneous polynomial brings a very useful inequality
Q m ( z ) μ G ( Q m ) ( μ G ( z ) ) m ,
which generalize the well-known inequality
Q m ( z ) Q m z m .
Let us denote by I the linear functional
I = μ G ( J ) 1 J
and by I m , m 1 , the m-homogeneous polynomial I m : C n C
I m ( z ) = I ( z ) m , z C n .
It is obvious that μ G ( I m ) = 1 .
In many papers (see for instance References [9,10,11,12,13]) there are presented some sharp estimations of m-homogeneous polynomials Q f , m , m 1 , for functions f of the form (1) from different subfamilies of H G . Below we give three Bavrin’s [9] estimates, in the case C n , n 1 , in term of μ G -balances of m-homogeneous polynomials, m 1
μ G ( Q f , m ) 1 , for f B G 2 , for f C G 2 m + 1 , for f V G , m 1 .

2. Main Results

In the present paper we give for f B G ( 0 ) = f B G : f ( 0 ) = 0 (also for f C G and f V G ) a kind sharp estimate for the pair of homogeneous polynomials Q f , 2 , Q f , 1 , that is, sharp estimate
μ G ( Q f , 2 λ Q f , 1 2 ) M ( λ ) , λ C .
It is a generalization of a solution of the well known Fekete-Szegö coefficient problem in complex plane [14] onto the case of several complex variables. The first result we demonstrate in the following theorem, which is a generalization of a result of Keogh and Merkes [15]:
Theorem 1.
Let φ B G ( 0 ) be a function of the form
φ ( z ) = m = 1 Q φ , m ( z ) , z G .
Then, for every γ C there holds the sharp estimate
μ G Q φ , 2 γ Q φ , 1 2 max { 1 , γ } .
Proof. 
Let us fix arbitrarily z G 0 . Then using the classic Schwarz Lemma to the function U ζ φ ζ z μ G z U (at the point ζ = μ G z U ) , we obtain the inequality
φ z μ G z , z G 0
(it is also true for z = 0 ).
Now, by this result we see that for every z G , the function
Φ ζ = φ ( ζ z ) ζ , ζ U { 0 } lim ζ 0 φ ( ζ z ) ζ , ζ = 0
transforms holomorphically the disc U into itself, fixes the point ζ = 0 and has the expression
Φ ζ = m = 0 β m ζ m , ζ U ,
where β m = Q φ , m + 1 ( z ) , for nonegative integers m .
Thus, in view of the well known [16,17] sharp coefficient estimates
β m 1 , m = 0 , 1 , , β 1 1 β 0 2 ,
we obtain for every z G
Q φ , m ( z ) 1 , m = 1 , 2 ,
Q φ , 2 ( z ) 1 Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 .
Therefore, for z G and every γ C
Q φ , 2 ( z ) γ Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 Q φ , 2 ( z ) + γ Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 1 Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 + γ Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 = 1 + γ 1 Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 max { 1 , γ } ,
because γ 1 Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 0 if γ < 1 and 0 γ 1 Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 γ 1 if γ 1 .
Consequently,
sup z G Q φ , 2 ( z ) γ Q φ , 1 ( z ) 2 max { 1 , γ } .
The above inequality gives the estimate (4) from the thesis by the definition of μ G -balance of homogeneous polynomials and the fact that Q φ , 2 γ Q φ , 1 2 is a 2-homogeneous polynomial.
It remains the problem of the sharpness of the estimation (4). First, we prove that in the case γ 1 , the equality in (4) is attained by the function φ ˜ B G ( 0 )
φ ˜ ( z ) = I ( z ) , z G .
Indeed, since Q φ ˜ , 1 = I , Q φ ˜ , 2 = 0 and μ G ( I 2 ) = 1 , we have
μ G Q φ ˜ , 2 γ Q φ ˜ , 1 2 = μ G γ Q φ ˜ , 1 2 = γ μ G Q φ ˜ , 1 2 = γ = max { 1 , γ } .
Now, we show that in the case γ < 1 the equality in (4) realizes the function φ ^ B G ( 0 )
φ ^ ( z ) = I 2 ( z ) , z G .
Indeed, since Q φ ^ , 1 = 0 , Q φ ^ , 2 = I 2 , we get
μ G Q φ ^ , 2 γ Q φ ^ , 1 2 = μ G Q φ ^ , 2 = 1 = max { 1 , γ } .
This completes the proof. □
A next theorem includes a solution of the Fekete-Szegö type problem in the family C G .
Theorem 2.
Let G C n be a bounded complete n-circular domain and let p C G . If the expansion of the function p into a series of m-homogenous polynomials Q p , m has the form
p ( z ) = 1 + m = 1 Q p , m ( z ) , z G ,
then for the homogeneous polynomials Q p , 2 , Q p , 1 and every λ C there holds the following sharp estimate:
μ G Q p , 2 λ Q p , 1 2 2 max 1 , 2 λ 1 .
Proof. 
It is known, that between the functions p C G and φ B G ( 0 ) , there holds the following relationship [9]:
p C G p 1 p + 1 = φ B G ( 0 ) .
Inserting the expansions (3) and (5) of functions into (7), we receive
m = 1 Q p , m ( z ) = m = 1 Q φ , m ( z ) 2 + m = 1 Q p , m ( z ) , z G .
Then, comparing the m-homogeneous polynomials on both sides of the above equality, we determine the homogeneous polynomials Q φ , 1 , Q φ , 2 , as follows
Q φ , 1 = 1 2 Q p , 1 , Q φ , 2 = 1 2 Q p , 2 1 4 Q p , 1 2 .
Putting the above equalities into Theorem 2.1 and using the fact that the mapping Q f , 1 2 is a 2-homogenous polynomial, we obtain
1 2 μ G Q p , 2 1 2 1 + γ Q p , 1 2 max { 1 , γ } .
Denoting
λ = 1 2 1 + γ ,
we get
μ G Q p , 2 λ Q p , 1 2 2 max 1 , 2 λ 1 .
Now, we show the sharpness of the estimate. To do it, let us consider two cases.
At the beginning, we prove that, in the case
2 λ 1 1
the equality in (6) is attained by the function p = p ˜ with
p ˜ ( z ) = 1 + I ( z ) 1 I ( z ) , z G .
Indeed. The function p ˜ belongs to C G and Q p ˜ , 1 = 2 I , Q p ˜ , 2 = 2 I 2 .
From this, by the case condition for λ , we have step by step:
μ G Q p ˜ , 2 λ Q p ˜ , 1 2 = μ G 2 I 2 λ 4 I 2 = 2 1 2 λ μ G I 2 = 2 2 λ 1 = 2 max 1 , 2 λ 1 .
Now, we show that, in the case
2 λ 1 < 1
the equality in (6) realizes the function p = p ^ , with
p ^ ( z ) = 1 + I 2 ( z ) 1 I 2 ( z ) , z G .
To do it observe that p ^ belongs to C G and Q p ^ , 1 = 0 , Q p ^ , 2 = 2 I 2 . From this, by the case condition for λ , we have:
μ G Q p ^ , 2 λ Q p ^ , 1 2 = μ G 2 I 2 = 2 = 2 max 1 , 2 λ 1 .
This completes the proof. □
In the sequel we apply the Fekete-Szegö type result in C G to study the family V G .
We start with the observation that for the transform L f of the functions f H G ( 1 ) , we have
L f ( z ) = 1 + m = 1 Q L f , m ( z ) = 1 + m = 1 ( m + 1 ) Q f , m ( z ) , z G .
We present the Fekete-Szegö type result in the family V G in the following theorem:
Theorem 3.
Let G C n be a bounded complete n-circular domain and the expansion of the function f V G into a series of m-homogenous polynomials Q f , m has the form (1) with Q f , 0 = 1 . Then for the homogeneous polynomials Q f , 2 , Q f , 1 and η C there holds the following sharp estimate:
μ G Q f , 2 η Q f , 1 2 2 3 max 1 , 3 2 η 1 .
Proof. 
Let f V G . Then p = L f belongs to the family C G . Inserting into this equality the expansions (5) of functions p C G and the expansions (8) of L f of functions f V G , we obtain
1 + m = 1 Q p , m ( z ) = 1 + m = 1 m + 1 Q f , m ( z ) , z G .
Then, comparing the m-homogeneous polynomials on both sides of the above equality, we can determine the homogeneous polynomials Q p , 1 , Q p , 2 , as follows
Q p , 1 = 2 Q f , 1 , Q p , 2 = 3 Q f , 2 .
Putting the above equalities into Theorem 2.2 and using the fact that the mapping Q f , 1 2 is a 2-homogenous polynomial, we obtain
μ G 3 Q f , 2 4 λ Q f , 1 2 2 max { 1 , 2 λ 1 }
and consequently
μ G Q f , 2 4 3 λ Q f , 1 2 2 3 max { 1 , 2 λ 1 } .
Denoting
η = 4 3 λ ,
we get
μ G Q f , 2 η Q f , 1 2 2 3 max 1 , 3 2 η 1 .
Now, we will show the sharpnes of the estimates (9). To this aim, we consider two cases.
At the begining, we prove that the equality in (9) holds in the case
3 2 η 1 1 .
To do it let us denote by Z the analytic set { z G : I ( z ) = 0 } . In this case the extremal function has the form
f ˜ z = 1 2 I ( z ) log 1 I ( z ) , for z G \ Z 1 , for z Z ,
where the branch of the function log ( 1 ζ ) , ζ U , takes the value 0 at the point ζ = 0 .
First we observe that f ˜ V G , because L f ˜ = 1 + I 1 I C G .
Now we show that f ˜ realizes the equality in the thesis. To do it observe that the power series expansion of the function log ( 1 ζ ) , ζ U , implies the expression
f ˜ z = 1 + 2 I ( z ) I ( z ) + 1 2 I 2 ( z ) + 1 3 I 3 ( z ) + , z G .
Thus
Q f ˜ , 1 z = I ( z ) Q f ˜ , 2 z = 2 3 I 2 ( z ) .
Hence, we have step by step:
μ G Q f ˜ , 2 η ( Q f ˜ , 1 ) 2 = μ G 2 3 I 2 η I 2 = 2 3 η μ G I 2 = 2 3 η = 2 3 max 1 , 3 2 η 1 .
Now, we show that, in the case
3 2 η 1 < 1
the extremal function has the form
f ^ z = 1 + log 1 + I ( z ) 1 I ( z ) , for z G \ Z , 1 , for z Z ,
where the branch of the function log ( 1 ζ ) , ζ U , takes the value 0 at the point ζ = 0 .
Of course, f ^ V G , because L f ^ = 1 + I 2 1 I 2 C G .
Observe that using the power series expansion of the function log ( 1 ζ ) , ζ U , we get the expression
f ^ ( z ) = 1 + 1 I ( z ) 2 I ( z ) + 2 3 I 3 ( z ) + , z G
and consequently
Q f ^ , 1 = 0 , Q f ^ , 2 = 2 3 I 2 .
Therefore, we have step by step
μ G Q f ^ , 2 η ( Q f ^ , ^ 1 ) 2 = μ G ( Q f ^ , 2 ) = μ G 2 3 I 2 = 2 3 = 2 3 max 1 , 3 2 η 1 .
This completes the proof. □

3. Complementary Remarks

Bavrin [9] declared that every of the estimations (2) is sharp in this sense that there exists an n-circular complete bounded domain G and a function f from appropriate family ( f B G , f C G , f V G ) for which the equality in an inequality of 2 holds. Actually we know that the estimations 2 are sharp in the sense that for every domain G there exists an extremal function in appropriate family which realizes equality in required inequality from (2). Another problem, connected with the above type estimates, is a characterization of the set of all extremal functions. An information in this direction follows from the main result of Reference [12]. Here we present its part connected with the family C G (in the term of μ G -balance of m-homogeneous polynomials).
If the function p of the form (5) belongs to C G , then for every m 1
2 μ G ( Q p , m ) m 2 2 μ G Q p , 1 .
Observe that this result implies that the equality μ G Q p , 1 = 2 for a function p C G implies equalities μ G ( Q p , m ) = 2 , m 1 . In others words if a function p C G is extremal in the estimation 2 for m = 1 , then it is also extremal for each m 1 .
Actually, we also have a similar result for the family V G . More precisely, it is true the following statement. If the function f of the form (1) with Q f , 0 = 1 , belongs to V G , then for every m 1
2 m + 1 μ G ( Q f , m ) 2 m 2 m + 1 1 μ G Q f , 1 .
To this aim it suffices to recall that, by the assumptions, the function
p ( z ) = L f ( z ) = 1 + m = 1 m + 1 Q f , m ( z ) , z G ,
belongs to the family C G and use the previous original inequality in C G . Therefore, if a function f V G is extremal in appropriate estimate 2 for m = 1 , that is, if μ G Q f , 1 = 1 , then it is also extremal in required estimate 2 for each m 1 , that is, μ G Q f , m = 2 m + 1 .
We close the paper with a suggestion of characterization of the set of all extremal functions in different estimates of homogeneous polynomials (also of Fekete-Szegö type) in series of functions from subfamilies of the family H G .
