Abstract
In a recent paper, Ng, Tang and Tsai (Math Ann 380, 1741–1766, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00208-020-02046-w, 2021) have found an explicit formula for the squeezing function of an annulus via the Loewner differential equation. Their result has led them to conjecture a corresponding formula for planar domains of any finite connectivity stating that the extremum in the squeezing function problem is achieved for a suitably chosen conformal mapping onto a circularly slit disk. In this paper we disprove this conjecture. We also give a conceptually simple potential-theoretic proof of the explicit formula for the squeezing function of an annulus which has the added advantage of identifying all extremal functions.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
