A Bloch-Landau theorem for slice regular functions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The Bloch-Landau Theorem is one of the basic results in the geometric theory of holomorphic functions. It establishes that the image of the open unit disc mathbbD under a holomorphic function f (such that f(0)=0 and f′(0)=1) always contains an open disc with radius larger than a universal constant. In this paper we prove a Bloch-Landau type Theorem for slice regular functions over the skew field mathbbH of quaternions. If f is a regular function on the open unit ball mathbbBsubsetmathbbH, then for every winmathbbB we define the regular translation ildefw of f. The peculiarities of the non commutative setting lead to the following statement: there exists a universal open set contained in the image of mathbbB through some regular translation ildefw of any slice regular function f:mathbbBomathbbH (such that f(0)=0 and partialCf(0)=1). For technical reasons, we introduce a new norm on the space of regular functions on open balls centred at the origin, equivalent to the uniform norm, and we investigate its properties.
