Abstract: The radial Komatu-Loewner equation is a differential equation for certain normalized conformal mappings that can be used to describe the growth of slits within multiply connected domains. We show that it is possible to choose constant coefficients in this equation in order to generate given disjoint slits and that those coefficients are uniquely determined under a suitable normalization of the differential equation.

Review text

This article is a contribution to the theory of the radial Komatu-Leowner equation. The authors show that there exists a unique Leowner equation with constant coefficients and continuous driving terms that generates given disjoint slits. More precisely, let \(\Gamma_1,\dots,\Gamma_m\) be disjoint slits in the unit disk \(\mathbb D\) (one of the end points of \(\Gamma_k\) is on the unit circle). Then there exists unique constants \(\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_m\in (0,1)\) and unique continuous driving functions \(\xi_1,\dots,\xi_m:[0,L]\to \partial \mathbb D\) such that the solution of the Leowner equation \[ \dot{h}_t(z)=h_t(z)\sum_{k=1}^m\lambda_k\cdot\frac{\xi_k(t)+h_t(z)}{\xi_k(t)-h_t(z)},\;\;\; h_0(z)=z, \] generates the slits \(\Gamma_1,\dots,\Gamma_m\), i.e., \(h_L\) maps \(\mathbb D\setminus (\Gamma_1\cup\dots\cup\Gamma_m)\) conformally onto \(\mathbb D\). Here \(L\) (the logarithmic mapping radius) is a positive number uniquely determined by the configuration \(\mathbb D\setminus (\Gamma_1\cup\dots\cup\Gamma_m)\). In fact, the authors prove a more general result with \(\mathbb D\) replaced by the finitely connected domain \(\Omega=\mathbb D\setminus (C_1\cup\dots\cup C_N)\), where \(C_1,\dots,C_N\) are circular slits centered at the origin.
