چکیده

The Apollonian metric is a generalization of the hyperbolic metric, defined in a much larger class of open sets. However, since it was introduced by Beardon in 1998, it has remained an open question what its isometries are. Beardon first raised this question and asked if the Apollonian isometries were just Möbius mappings. In this paper we show that this is the case in open sets with regular, for instance C, boundary.

The Apollonian Metric: Limits of the Comparison and Bilipschitz Properties

The Apollonian metric is a generalization of the hyperbolic metric introduced by Beardon [2]. It is defined in arbitrary domains in Rn and is Möbius invariant. Another advantage over the well-known quasihyperbolic metric [8] is that it is simpler to evaluate. On the downside, points cannot generally be connected by geodesics of the Apollonian metric. This paper is the last in a series of four p...

Möbius Transformations, the Carathéodory Metric, and the Objects of Complex Analysis and Potential Theory in Multiply Connected Domains

It is proved that the family of Ahlfors extremal mappings of a multiply connected region in the plane onto the unit disc can be expressed as a rational combination of two fixed Ahlfors mappings in much the same way that the family of Riemann mappings associated to a simply connected region can be expressed in terms of a single such map. The formulas reveal that this family of mappings extends t...

Local Convexity Properties of Balls in Apollonian and Seittenranta’s Metrics

We consider local convexity properties of balls in the Apollonian and Seittenranta’s metrics. Balls in the Apollonian metric are considered in the twice punctured space and starlike domains. Balls in Seittenranta’s metric are considered in the twice punctured space and in the punctured ball.

Generalized Regular Fuzzy Irresolute Mappings and Their Applications

In this paper, the notion of generalized regular fuzzy irresolute, generalized regular fuzzy irresolute open  and generalized regular fuzzy irresolute closed maps in fuzzy  topological spaces are introduced and studied. Moreover, some separation axioms and $r$-GRF-separated sets are established. Also, the relations between generalized regular fuzzy continuous maps and generalized regular fuzzy ...

Convex Bodies of Constant Width and the Apollonian Metric

The study of constant width sets goes at least as far back as the time of Euler. The Apollonian metric, on the other hand, is a relatively new concept. It was introduced by Beardon in 1998 as a generalization of the hyperbolic metric of a ball to arbitrary domains [3]. Close connections between these concepts were established in [20] and [21]. In this paper, we study the Apollonian metric of do...
