Result: THE ROPER-SUFFRIDGE EXTENSION OPERATOR AND ITS APPLICATIONS TO CONVEX MAPPINGS IN C².

The purpose of this paper is twofold. The first is to investigate the Roper-Suffridge extension operator which maps a biholomorhic function f on D to a biholomorphic mapping F on ..., pj ≥ 1, where z0 = (z2, . . ., zn) and λD is the density of the Poincaré metric on a simply connected domain D ⊂ C. We prove this Roper-Suffridge extension operator preserves ε-starlike mapping: if f is ε-starlike, then so is F. As a consequence, we solve a problem of Graham and Kohr in a new method. By introducing the scaling method, the second part is to construct some new convex mappings of domain Ω2,m = {(z1, z2) ∈ C² : |z1|² + |z2|m < 1} with m ≥ 2, which can be applied to discuss the extremal point of convex mappings on the domain. This scaling idea can be viewed as providing an alternative approach to studying convex mappings on Ω2,m. Moreover, we propose some problems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
