Conformal Maps And Geometry: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Conformal Maps And Geometry" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Geometric function theory is one of the most interesting parts of complex analysis, an area that has become increasingly relevant as a key feature in the theory of Schramm Loewner Evolution.

Though Riemann mapping theorem is frequently explored, there are few texts that discuss general theory of univalent maps, conformal invariants, and Loewner Evolution. This textbook provides an accessible foundation of the theory of conformal maps and their connections with geometry.

It offers a unique view of the field, as it is one of the first to discuss general theory of univalent maps at a graduate level, while introducing more complex theories of conformal invariants and extremal lengths. Conformal Maps and Geometry is an ideal resource for graduate courses in Complex Analysis or as an analytic prerequisite to study the theory of Schramm Loewner Evolution.

Preface

Complex analysis in general, and function theory in particular, are old and well-developed subjects. In this textbook, we concentrate on a more geometric approach that originates from the Riemann mapping theorem, which could be seen as a statement that there is a correspondence between univalent functions and planar domains. This allows us to develop a powerful theory of univalent functions with a strong geometric flavour.

The idea of this book was conceived when I started giving courses about the SchrammLoewner evolution (SLE) and realized that there is no single complex analysis text which gives all necessary background function theory information in a simple and accessible manner. There are many excellent books on function theory, in particular books by Ahlfors, Duren, and Pommerenke which I really like but, at the same time, they might be too advanced for some students and do not cover everything that I want to explain. In particular, univalent maps in the upper half-plane, which are important in the context of the SchrammLoewner evolution, are not treated in the classical works. Another excellent source is Lawlers book, which treats complex analysis from a probabilistic perspective.

A significant part of this book is based on the lecture notes I developed for several courses that I have taught in Oxford. It is intended to be used as the main textbook for an advanced undergraduate or a graduate course studying conformal maps on their own or building the analysis base to study SLE. Prerequisites are absolutely minimal: a basic course in complex analysis, some understanding of measures and integration (but most of the book does not require it), and basic knowledge of differential equation (for the final chapter only).

The book is organized as follows:

Introduction contains a list of basic results that might be missing from a basic complex analysis course, but will be used throughout the book. We briefly discuss these results and give references to other books that study them in greater detail.

Riemann mapping theorem gives the classical proof of the Riemann mapping theorem using the normal families approach. After this, we study the boundary behaviour of uniformizing maps and answer when conformal maps are continuous up to the boundary. Finally, we briefly discuss the connection between conformal maps and the Dirichlet boundary problem and uniformization of multiply connected domains.

Basic theory of univalent maps gives an introduction to the general theory of univalent functions. In this chapter, we prove universal bounds on functions and their derivatives (BieberbachKoebe theory) and discuss subordination and corresponding analytic and geometric estimates. After this, we discuss the notions of capacity and their relation to geometry. Then we study the properties of half-plane uniformizing maps. Finally, this chapter gives an introduction to coefficient problems and explains the relation between convergence of domains and functions.

Extremal length introduces the theory of conformal invariants defined in terms of a very geometric notion of extremal length. This chapter gives several applications of extremal length and explains how classical topics of harmonic measure and prime ends can be studied by the extremal length techniques.

Loewner evolution gives a modern introduction to the theory of Loewner evolution; in particular, it carefully treats both (classical) radial and chordal cases. This chapter explains how the Loewner evolution ideas can be used in classical function theory and discusses the geometric properties of hulls generated by the Loewner evolution.

The book contains a number of exercises that are an integral part of the text; solutions to all exercises can be found at the end of each chapter.
