CLASSIFICATION OF UNIVALENT HARMONIC MAPPINGS ON THE UNIT DISK WITH HALF-INTEGER COEFFICIENTS
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 November 2014
Abstract
Let ${\mathcal{S}}$ denote the set of all univalent analytic functions $f$ of the form $f(z)=z+\sum _{n=2}^{\infty }a_{n}z^{n}$ on the unit disk $|z|<1$. In 1946, Friedman [‘Two theorems on Schlicht functions’, Duke Math. J.13 (1946), 171–177] found that the set ${\mathcal{S}}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ of those functions in ${\mathcal{S}}$ which have integer coefficients consists of only nine functions. In a recent paper, Hiranuma and Sugawa [‘Univalent functions with half-integer coefficients’, Comput. Methods Funct. Theory13(1) (2013), 133–151] proved that the similar set obtained for functions with half-integer coefficients consists of only 21 functions; that is, 12 more functions in addition to these nine functions of Friedman from the set ${\mathcal{S}}_{\mathbb{Z}}$. In this paper, we determine the class of all normalized sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings $f$ on the unit disk with half-integer coefficients for the analytic and co-analytic parts of $f$. It is surprising to see that there are only 27 functions out of which only six functions in this class are not conformal. This settles the recent conjecture of the authors. We also prove a general result, which leads to a new conjecture.
