Hadamard Three-circle Theorem
In complex analysis, a branch of mathematics, the Hadamard three-circle theorem is a result about the behavior of holomorphic functions. Let f(z) be a holomorphic function on the annulus :r_1\leq\left, z\ \leq r_3. Let M(r) be the maximum of , f(z), on the circle , z, =r. Then, \log M(r) is a convex function of the logarithm \log (r). Moreover, if f(z) is not of the form cz^\lambda for some constants \lambda and c, then \log M(r) is strictly convex as a function of \log (r). The conclusion of the theorem can be restated as :\log\left(\frac\right)\log M(r_2)\leq \log\left(\frac\right)\log M(r_1) +\log\left(\frac\right)\log M(r_3) for any three concentric circles of radii r_1

Complex Analysis
Complex analysis, traditionally known as the theory of functions of a complex variable, is the branch of mathematical analysis that investigates Function (mathematics), functions of complex numbers. It is helpful in many branches of mathematics, including algebraic geometry, number theory, analytic combinatorics, applied mathematics; as well as in physics, including the branches of hydrodynamics, thermodynamics, and particularly quantum mechanics. By extension, use of complex analysis also has applications in engineering fields such as nuclear engineering, nuclear, aerospace engineering, aerospace, mechanical engineering, mechanical and electrical engineering. As a differentiable function of a complex variable is equal to its Taylor series (that is, it is Analyticity of holomorphic functions, analytic), complex analysis is particularly concerned with analytic functions of a complex variable (that is, holomorphic functions). History Complex analysis is one of the classical ...

Jacques Hadamard
Jacques Salomon Hadamard (; 8 December 1865 – 17 October 1963) was a French mathematician who made major contributions in number theory, complex analysis, differential geometry and partial differential equations. Biography The son of a teacher, Amédée Hadamard, of Jewish descent, and Claire Marie Jeanne Picard, Hadamard was born in Versailles, France and attended the Lycée Charlemagne and Lycée Louis-le-Grand, where his father taught. In 1884 Hadamard entered the École Normale Supérieure, having placed first in the entrance examinations both there and at the École Polytechnique. His teachers included Tannery, Hermite, Darboux, Appell, Goursat and Picard. He obtained his doctorate in 1892 and in the same year was awarded the for his essay on the Riemann zeta function. In 1892 Hadamard married Louise-Anna Trénel, also of Jewish descent, with whom he had three sons and two daughters. The following year he took up a lectureship in the University of Bordeaux, where he ...

American Mathematical Society
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) is an association of professional mathematicians dedicated to the interests of mathematical research and scholarship, and serves the national and international community through its publications, meetings, advocacy and other programs. The society is one of the four parts of the Joint Policy Board for Mathematics and a member of the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences. History The AMS was founded in 1888 as the New York Mathematical Society, the brainchild of Thomas Fiske, who was impressed by the London Mathematical Society on a visit to England. John Howard Van Amringe was the first president and Fiske became secretary. The society soon decided to publish a journal, but ran into some resistance, due to concerns about competing with the American Journal of Mathematics. The result was the ''Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society'', with Fiske as editor-in-chief. The de facto journal, as intended, was influential in in ...

Phragmén–Lindelöf Principle
In complex analysis, the Phragmén–Lindelöf principle (or method), first formulated by Lars Edvard Phragmén (1863–1937) and Ernst Leonard Lindelöf (1870–1946) in 1908, is a technique which employs an auxiliary, parameterized function to prove the boundedness of a holomorphic function f (i.e, , f(z), ) on an unbounded domain \Omega when an additional (usually mild) condition constraining the growth of , f, on \Omega is given. It is a generalization of the , which is only applicable to bounded domains.


Background

In the theory of complex functions, it is known that the modulus (absolute value) of a

Borel–Carathéodory Theorem
In mathematics, the Borel–Carathéodory theorem in complex analysis shows that an analytic function may be bounded by its real part. It is an application of the maximum modulus principle. It is named for Émile Borel and Constantin Carathéodory. Statement of the theorem Let a function f be analytic on a closed disc of radius ''R'' centered at the origin Origin(s) or The Origin may refer to: Arts, entertainment, and media Comics and manga * Origin (comics), ''Origin'' (comics), a Wolverine comic book mini-series published by Marvel Comics in 2002 * The Origin (Buffy comic), ''The Origin'' (Bu .... Suppose that ''r'' 1, so we may assume ''f'' is nonconstant. First let ''f''(0) = 0. Since Re ''f'' is harmonic, Re ''f''(0) is equal to the average of its values around any circle centered at 0. That is, : \operatorname f(0) = \frac \int_ \operatorname f(z) dz. Since ''f'' is regular and nonconstant, we have that Re ''f'' is also nonconstant. Since Re ''f''(0) = 0, we must ...

Hardy's Theorem
In mathematics, Hardy's theorem is a result in complex analysis describing the behavior of holomorphic functions. Let f be a holomorphic function on the open ball centered at zero and radius R in the complex plane, and assume that f is not a constant function. If one defines :I(r) = \frac \int_0^\! \left, f(r e^) \ \,d\theta for 0< r < R, then this function is strictly and is a convex function of \log r.

Logarithmically Convex Function
In mathematics, a function (mathematics), function ''f'' is logarithmically convex or superconvex if \circ f, the function composition, composition of the logarithm with ''f'', is itself a convex function. Definition Let be a convex set, convex subset of a real numbers, real vector space, and let be a function taking negative and positive numbers, non-negative values. Then is: * Logarithmically convex if \circ f is convex, and * Strictly logarithmically convex if \circ f is strictly convex. Here we interpret \log 0 as -\infty. Explicitly, is logarithmically convex if and only if, for all and all , the two following equivalent conditions hold: :\begin \log f(tx_1 + (1 - t)x_2) &\le t\log f(x_1) + (1 - t)\log f(x_2), \\ f(tx_1 + (1 - t)x_2) &\le f(x_1)^tf(x_2)^. \end Similarly, is strictly logarithmically convex if and only if, in the above two expressions, strict inequality holds for all . The above definition permits to be zero, but if is logarithmically convex and vanis ...

Maximum Principle
In the mathematical fields of partial differential equations and geometric analysis, the maximum principle is any of a collection of results and techniques of fundamental importance in the study of elliptic and parabolic differential equations. In the simplest case, consider a function of two variables such that :\frac+\frac=0. The weak maximum principle, in this setting, says that for any open precompact subset of the domain of , the maximum of on the closure of is achieved on the boundary of . The strong maximum principle says that, unless is a constant function, the maximum cannot also be achieved anywhere on itself. Such statements give a striking qualitative picture of solutions of the given differential equation. Such a qualitative picture can be extended to many kinds of differential equations. In many situations, one can also use such maximum principles to draw precise quantitative conclusions about solutions of differential equations, such as control over the size ...

Hadamard Three-lines Theorem
In complex analysis, a branch of mathematics, the Hadamard three-lines theorem is a result about the behaviour of holomorphic functions defined in regions bounded by parallel lines in the complex plane. The theorem is named after the French mathematician Jacques Hadamard. Statement Define F(z) by : F(z)=f(z) M(a)^M(b)^ where , F(z), \leq 1 on the edges of the strip. The result follows once it is shown that the inequality also holds in the interior of the strip. After an affine transformation in the coordinate z, it can be assumed that a = 0 and b = 1. The function : F_n(z) = F(z) e^e^ tends to 0 as , z, tends to infinity and satisfies , F_n, \leq 1 on the boundary of the strip. The maximum modulus principle can therefore be applied to F_n in the strip. So , F_n(z), \leq 1. Because F_n(z) tends to F(z) as n tends to infinity, it follows that , F(z), \leq 1. ∎ Applications The three-line theorem can be used to prove the Hadamard three-circle theorem for a boun ...

Harmonic Function
In mathematics, mathematical physics and the theory of stochastic processes, a harmonic function is a twice continuously differentiable function f: U \to \mathbb R, where is an open subset of that satisfies Laplace's equation, that is, : \frac + \frac + \cdots + \frac = 0 everywhere on . This is usually written as : \nabla^2 f = 0 or :\Delta f = 0 Etymology of the term "harmonic" The descriptor "harmonic" in the name harmonic function originates from a point on a taut string which is undergoing harmonic motion. The solution to the differential equation for this type of motion can be written in terms of sines and cosines, functions which are thus referred to as ''harmonics''. Fourier analysis involves expanding functions on the unit circle in terms of a series of these harmonics. Considering higher dimensional analogues of the harmonics on the unit ''n''-sphere, one arrives at the spherical harmonics. These functions satisfy Laplace's equation and over time "harmonic" ...
