Complex geodesics in tube domains and their role in the study of harmonic mappings in the disc (Q2151144): Difference between revisions

In this paper, the author continues the research from the work of \textit{P. Pflug} and \textit{W. Zwonek} [Forum Math. 30, No. 1, 159--170 (2018; Zbl 1384.32012)] on the structure of complex geodesics in tube domains over (bounded) convex bases. These results let understand better how complex geodesics in tube domains look like. In some special cases a more explicit form of the geodesics than the existing ones are provided. As one of the consequences of the study an effective formula for the Kobayashi-Royden metric in the tube domain \(T_{{\mathbb{B}}_n}\) at the origin is given. The results on the Kobayashi-Royden metric in a natural way provide versions of the Schwarz Lemma for harmonic mappings. A result that could be described as a refinement of the Radó-Kneser-Choquet Theorem with the homeomorphisms on the boundary replaced by bivalent functions onto a proper subset of the boundary of the convex domain is presented.
