Review text

In 1907 Köbe has obtained the following distortion theorem for the class of univalent functions on the unit disk \(\Delta\) in the complex plane \(\mathbb{C}\). If \(f(z)=z+\cdots\) is a univalent and holomorphic function on \(\Delta\), then \[ \frac{1-r}{(1+r)^3}\leq | f'(z)| \leq\frac{1+r}{(1-r)^3},\quad | z| =r<1, \] holds for every \(z\in\Delta\), and equality holds if and only if \(f\) is the Köbe function \(K(z)=\frac{z}{(1-z)^2}\) or one of its rotations \(e^{-i\theta}K(e^{i\theta}z)\), where \(\theta\) is a real number. If \(f(z)=z+\dots\) is a convex univalent and holomorphic function on \(\Delta\), then \[ (1+r)^{-2}\leq | f'(z)| \leq (1-r)^{-2},\quad | z| =r<1, \] holds for every \(z\in\Delta\), and equality holds if and only if \(f\) is \(C(z)=\frac{z}{1-z}\) or one of its rotations \(e^{-i\theta}C(e^{i\theta}z)\), where \(\theta\) is a real number. The meaning of distortion theorem in several complex variables is to estimate the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix \(J_f(z)\) of a complex mapping \(f\) of a domain \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^n\), or quantities \(J_f(z)\overline{J_f(z)'}\), \(| \det\,J_f(z)| \), \(\| J_f(z)\| \), \(\text{ Tr}\,(J_f(z)\overline{J_f(z)'})\), etc. It is known [see the book of the author, Convex and starlike mappings in several complex variables. Transl. from the Chinese. Updated and rev. translation (1998; Zbl 0926.32007)] that there is no distortion theorem for the class of normalized biholomorphic mappings. But it exists for the class of normalized biholomorphic convex mappings. The present paper is a brief survey of such theorems for various classes of domains: the unit ball \(B^n\) in \(\mathbb{C}^n\), bounded convex circular domains, the open unit ball in a complex Banach space \(X\) and bounded symmetric domains. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1051.32001].
