Zero asymptotics for successive derivatives of hyperexponential functions with finite essential singularities

Abstract

Pólya's shire theorem identifies the final set of zeros of successive derivatives of an arbitrary meromorphic function with at least one pole with the Voronoi diagram of its finite poles. We prove a fixed-scale zero-counting law for hyperexponential functions $f=(P/Q)\exp(S/T)$, allowing ordinary poles and finite essential singularities of arbitrary order and position, thus extending Pólya's picture beyond the rational, polynomial-exponential, and one-dimensional finite-essential-singularity settings. After the forced singular factors are removed from the numerator of $f^{(n)}$, the normalized zero-counting measures converge in the original $z$-plane to the classical Voronoi edge measure generated by all finite singular sites, augmented by explicitly weighted atoms at the finite essential singularities, which thereby enter Pólya's picture both as Voronoi sites and as sources of linear-size zero clusters. If $S/T$ has a nonconstant polynomial part, the complementary mass escapes to infinity. We determine the microscopic laws of these clusters, obtaining the reciprocal Marchenko--Pastur law for simple poles of $S/T$ and higher-order multiple-Laguerre, equivalently Laguerre Muttalib--Borodin, limits for higher-order poles. Finally, inside essential Voronoi cells we identify the first sublinear zero layer, including its Stokes geometry, densities, and final-set consequences away from transition loci.

Explicit Estimates for the Bergman Kernel Form

Let $(L,e^{-ϕ})$ be a positive Hermitian holomorphic line bundle over a compact Riemann surface $X$, and let $ω=i\partial\overline{\partial}ϕ$. We obtain explicit pointwise estimates for the Bergman form of the tensor power $mL$. If $\mathrm{Ric}\,ω\leqω$ and the shortest nonconstant closed geodesic has length at least $2π$, then \[ K_{mϕ}\geq \frac{2m-1}{4π}\,ω, \] with sharpness holding for $(\mathbb P^1,\mathcal O_{\mathbb P^1}(2))$. We also obtain a local version, depending on an upper curvature bound and the injectivity radius, which recovers the first two terms of the Bergman expansion when the curvature is constant. We also find a higher dimensional version. Under the two-sided bound $-ω\leq\mathrm{Ric}\,ω\leqω$ and the same closed-geodesic hypothesis, we also prove \[ K_{mϕ}\leq \frac{mω}{2π} \left(1+\frac{3}{2m}\right). \] The lower estimates use the deformation to the tangent space version of the Ohsawa--Takegoshi theorem established by He, Wang, and the author, whereas the upper bound via Błocki--Zwonek and isoperimetric inequalities.

The Complete Crouzeix Conjecture in Dimension Three and the Clouâtre-Ostermann-Ransford conjecture

We settle the complete Crouzeix conjecture for matrices of order at most three and prove the Q-algebra case of the completely bounded Clouâtre--Ostermann--Ransford (COR) conjecture for homomorphisms into matrices of order at most three, via sharp abstract column and row estimates. Our approach also establishes the scalar COR conjecture in a stronger form, for homomorphisms with commutative range on Banach algebras with unity satisfying von Neumann's inequality. Under contractivity of the symmetrized map, this result holds on arbitrary Hilbert spaces without initial boundedness assumptions on the homomorphism or the antilinear map. For arbitrary operator algebras, we disprove the complete COR conjecture by an exact three-dimensional example with target matrix order two. We also prove the sharp complete bound for every matrix subalgebra containing the diagonal, in arbitrary matrix order and on arbitrary target Hilbert spaces. We also obtain column and row square-function inequalities with sharp norm bounds, strict scalar bounds for operators similar to normal operators, sharp complete spectral constants for scaled $q$-numerical ranges in dimensions two and three, and rigidity, stability, and representing-measure results.

Solving non-oscillatory solutions of the Hill equation via the Tumura--Clunie method

We consider the Hill equation $f''-(\sum_{i=-\mathbf{l}}^{\mathbf{k}}b_{i}e^{iz})f=0$ ($†$), where $\mathbf{k}\geq 1$ and $\mathbf{l}\geq 0$ are integers and $b_{-\mathbf{l}}$, $\cdots$, $b_{\mathbf{k}}$ are constants such that $b_{\mathbf{k}}\not=0$. We point out that there is a full correspondence between the class of non-oscillatory solutions such that $λ(f)<\infty$ of equation ($†$) and the class of Liouvillian solutions of equation $x^2u''-(\sum_{i=-\mathbf{l}}^{\mathbf{k}}b_{i}x^{i})u=0$ ($‡$). Then this paper has twofold purposes. First, parallel to Kovacic's algorithms to find the Liouvillian solutions of equation ($‡$), we develop the Tumura--Clunie method to find the non-oscillatory solutions of a higher order version of the Hill equation. Second, for the particular Hill equation $f''-(b_{\mathbf{k}}e^{\mathbf{k}z}+b_{\mathbf{s}}e^{\mathbf{s}z}+b_0)f=0$, where $\mathbf{k}>\mathbf{s}\geq 1$ are integers and $b_{\mathbf{k}}b_{\mathbf{s}}\not=0$, we use the Tumura--Clunie method to determine the non-oscillatory solution $f$ with an additional zero property.
