Abstract

The paper presents some heuristic results about the distribution of zeros of Hermite-Pade polynomials of first kind for the case of three functions $1,f,f^2$, where $f$ has the form $f(z): = \prod\limits_ {j = 1 } ^3 (z-a_j) ^ {α_j} $, $α_j \in \mathbb C\setminus \mathbb Z $, $ \sum \limits_ {j = 1 } ^ 3 α_j = 0 $, $ f (\infty) = 1 $. Answers are given in terms related to the problem of extreme minimum capacity of a plane Nuttall condenser, two plates of which intersect ("hooked" for each other) in a five points: the branch points $ a_1, a_2, a_3 $ of function $ f $, at $ v_1 = v $, where $ v = v (a_1, a_2, a_3) $ the Chebotarev point corresponding to triple points $ a_1, a_2, a_3 $, and another "unknown" at $ v_2 \neq v_1, a_1, a_2, a_3 $ (see Fig1-Fig3). The connection between the distribution of zeros of Hermite-Pade polynomials and global topology of the Stokes lines and the asymptotic behavior of Liouville-Green solutions of a class of homogeneous linear differential equations of the third order containing a large parameter is the free term is established. The basic idea of the new and still heuristic approach is to reduce at first some theoretical potential vector equilibrium problem to the scalar problem with the external field, and then use the general method of Gonchar-Rakhmanov developed in 1987 for solving the Varga problem "about $ 1/9 $". It is supposed that in the general case of an arbitrary algebraic function $ f $ it is imposible to constract the Nuttall condenser for a set of three functions $ 1, f, f ^ 2 $ without the knowledge of the structure of the Stahl compact for function $ f $. Namely, the Nuttall condenser is constructed using Green's function $ g_ {D} (z, \infty) $ for the Stahl domain $ D $ and "core" of Stahl compact, which consists of "effective" branch points of $ f $ and corresponding Chebotarev points.

The two-dimensional Matkowski--Sut\^o equation with holomorphic and strictly increasing generators

We study the two-dimensional Matkowski--Sut\^o equation, which asks for two quasi-arithmetic means whose sum is twice the arithmetic mean, in two settings. For holomorphic injective generators with convex images on a convex domain in the complex plane, the solutions are exactly the affine pairs and the exponential pairs with a nonzero complex exponent, up to affine changes of the generators. The admissible exponents depend on the shape of the domain and are described by a curvature criterion for its boundary. In the monotone-operator framework of T\'oth, we construct an infinite-dimensional family of non-affine shear pairs on the whole plane. Their generators are strictly increasing in the sense of monotone operators and need not be differentiable. These pairs solve the weighted equation for any number of variables. The rigidity of the one-dimensional problem, due to Dar\'oczy and P\'ales, persists under holomorphy but not under monotonicity.

A counterexample to an open problem of Dorff

The classical P\'olya-Schoenberg conjecture, proved by Ruscheweyh-Sheil-Small, asserts that the convolution of two normalized convex univalent functions is again convex. This property fails to carry over to planar harmonic mappings. In 2001, Dorff posed the open problem whether the self-convolution of a normalized convex harmonic mapping with bounded image must remain in the same class. We construct a normalized sense-preserving harmonic diffeomorphism that maps the unit disk onto an ellipse; its self-convolution has vanishing Jacobian at some interior point of the unit disk, which provides a negative answer to Dorff's open problem.

Analytic Construction of Rational Curves on Fano Manifolds

Inspired by methods for constructing entire curves in Oka geometry, we give an analytic construction of rational curves on a complex Fano manifold $X$. Yau's theorem provides a K\"ahler metric with positive Ricci curvature. Using this curvature to guide deformations of holomorphic discs, we construct maps from discs of radii tending to infinity with uniformly bounded area. A central point is to preserve the derivative normalization through the limiting process. This yields a nonconstant entire map $f:\mathbb C\rightarrow X$ of finite area. This map extends across infinity to a nonconstant holomorphic map $\mathbb P^1\to X$. Combined with algebraic arguments in characteristic zero, the construction yields proofs of the rational connectedness of Fano manifolds and of Hartshorne's conjecture on ample tangent bundles.
