In this note, we use Rouches theorem and the pleasant properties of the arithmetic of the logarithmic derivative to establish several new results regarding the geometry of the zeros, poles, and critical points of a rational function. Included is an improvement on a result by Alexander and Walsh regarding the distance from a given zero or pole of a rational function to the nearest critical point.
We provide detailed local descriptions of stable polynomials in terms of their homogeneous decompositions, Puiseux expansions, and transfer function realizations. We use this theory to first prove that bounded rational functions on the polydisk possess non-tangential limits at every boundary point. We relate higher non-tangential regularity and distinguished boundary behavior of bounded rational functions to geometric properties of the zero sets of stable polynomials via our local descriptions. For a fixed stable polynomial $p$, we analyze the ideal of numerators $q$ such that $q/p$ is bounded on the bi-upper half plane. We completely characterize this ideal in several geometrically interesting situations including smooth points, double points, and ordinary multiple points of $p$. Finally, we analyze integrability properties of bounded rational functions and their derivatives on the bidisk.
In this paper, we prove that slice polyanalytic functions on quaternions can be considered as solutions of a power of some special global operator with nonconstant coefficients as it happens in the case of slice hyperholomorphic functions. We investigate also an extension version of the Fueter mapping theorem in this polyanalytic setting. In particular, we show that under axially symmetric conditions it is always possible to construct Fueter regular and poly-Fueter regular functions through slice polyanalytic ones using what we call the poly-Fueter mappings. We study also some integral representations of these results on the quaternionic unit ball.
Some differential implications of classical Marx-Strohhacker theorem are extended for multivalent functions. These results are also generalized for functions with fixed second coefficient by using the theory of first order differential subordination which in turn, corrects the results of Selvaraj and Stelin [On multivalent functions associated with fixed second coefficient and the principle of subordination, Int. J. Math. Anal. {bf 9} (2015), no.~18, 883--895].
This note is devoted to two classical theorems: the open mapping theorem for analytic functions (OMT) and the fundamental theorem of algebra (FTA). We present a new proof of the first theorem, and then derive the second one by a simple topological argument. The proof is elementary in nature and does not use any kind of integration (neither complex nor real). In addition, it is also independent of the fact that the roots of an analytic function are isolated. The proof is based on either the Banach or Brouwer fixed point theorems. In particular, this shows that one can obtain a proof of the FTA (albeit indirect) which is based on the Brouwer fixed point theorem, an aim which was not reached in the past and later the possibility to achieve it was questioned. We close this note with a simple generalization of the FTA. A short review of certain issues related to the OMT and the FTA is also included.
In this article, we survey the the recent literature surrounding the geometry of complex polynomials. Specific areas surveyed are i) Generalizations of the Gauss--Lucas Theorem, ii) Geometry of Polynomials Level Sets, and iii) Shape Analysis and Conformal Equivalence.
