Abstract

In this thesis we show that the partial sums of the Maclaurin series for a certain class of entire functions possess scaling limits in various directions in the complex plane. In doing so we obtain information about the zeros of the partial sums. We will only assume that these entire functions have a certain asymptotic behavior at infinity. With this information we will partially verify for this class of functions a conjecture on the location of the zeros of their partial sums known as the Saff-Varga Width Conjecture. The thesis begins by introducing the basics (and the not-so-basics) of the topic and includes a detailed survey of the relevant literature. The body of the thesis is then divided into chapters which look at different asymptotic regimes. Following that a chapter is dedicated to applying the results obtained to several well-known functions including the sine and cosine functions, Bessel functions, confluent hypergeometric functions, Airy functions, and parabolic cylinder functions. This chapter includes many figures which clearly illustrate the behavior we're interested in. The thesis closes with an appendix which aims to serve as an instructive introduction to the Laplace method of asymptotic analysis of integrals.

Convolution Regularization Preserves the $L^2$-Estimate Property for $(1,n)$-Forms

In this paper, we prove that the $L^2$-estimate property for $(1,n)$-forms is preserved under the standard convolution regularization. As applications, we show that any singular Hermitian metric satisfying the optimal or multiple coarse $L^2$-estimate property for $(n,1)$ or $(1,n)$-forms is Griffiths semi-positive. This resolves a question posed by Deng--Ning--Wang and a question by Inayama.

Sharp Bounds for Higher-Order Schippers Functionals Associated with Lune and Bean Domains

We obtain sharp bounds for the third- and fourth-order Schippers functionals, $|σ_3(f)(0)|$ and $|σ_4(f)(0)|$, for subclasses of univalent functions associated with non-classical geometric domains. In particular, we investigate the lune-starlike class $\mathcal{S}_{\leftmoon}^*$ and the lune-convex class $\mathcal{C}_{\leftmoon}$ determined by the subordination \[ \frac{zf'(z)}{f(z)} \prec z+\sqrt{1+z^2}, \qquad 1+\frac{zf''(z)}{f'(z)} \prec z+\sqrt{1+z^2}, \] respectively, together with the bean-domain class $\mathcal{BT}_{\mathfrak{B}}$ associated with \[ \mathfrak{B}(z)=\sqrt{1+\tanh z}. \] Using Carathéodory coefficient parametrizations and extremal optimization techniques, we derive exact estimates for the higher-order Schwarzian derivatives at the origin and identify the corresponding extremal functions. In addition, geometric descriptions of the associated extremal image domains are provided to illustrate the sharpness phenomena. The obtained results further yield sharp bounds for the initial Grunsky coefficients $g_{1,1}$ and $g_{1,2}$. These findings provide a precise description of higher-order Schwarzian structures for univalent functions related to lune and bean shaped domains.

Cesàro operator induced by a Bergman kernel

Let $μ$ be a positive Borel measure on $[0,1)$ and $ω$ a radial weight. In this paper we consider the Cesàro-type operator $C_{μ,ω}$ induced by the reproducing kernel $B^ω$ of the weighted Bergman space $A^2_ω$, given by $$ C_{μ,ω}(f)(z)=\int_{0}^{1}f(tz)B^ω_t(z)\,dμ(t), \quad z \in \mathbb{D}, $$ for functions $f$ analytic in $\mathbb{D}$. Under the assumption that $ω$ satisfies a natural doubling property, we study the boundedness of $C_{μ,ω}$ acting on several spaces of analytic functions, including Hardy spaces $H^p$ and weighted Bergman spaces $A^p_ν$. For $0<p,q<\infty$ and a two-sided doubling weight $ν$, we completely characterize when $C_{μ,ω}: H^p \to H^q$ and $C_{μ,ω}: A^p_ν \to A^q_ν$ are bounded in terms of the interplay of tail integrals or moments of the inducing weights and the measure $μ$. Many of the results obtained are new even in the setting of standard weights or when the Bergman reproducing kernel is replaced by the Cauchy kernel. In addition, we consider $C_{μ,ω}$ acting on $H^{\infty}$, Korenblum spaces and weighted Hardy spaces.
