Let T be a compact Hausdorff topological space and let M denote an n–dimensional subspace of the space C(T ), the space of real–valued continuous functions on T and let the space be equipped with the uniform norm. Zukhovitskii [7] attributes the Basic Theorem to E.Ya.Remez and gives a proof by duality. He also gives a proof due to Shnirel’man, which uses Helly’s Theorem, now the paper obtains a...

In this talk I will present the conjecture and the main ideas that led to the proof. The proof of Lenard Weinstein (1991) [4] follows, and I will show how the two proofs are interrelated. Both proofs depend on polynomial systems that are directly related with the Koebe function. At this point algorithms of computer algebra come into the play, and I will give a computer demonstration how importa...

Since the function z 7→ 1+z 1−z is univalent with image the right half plane, we see that z 7→ ( 1+z 1−z )2 is univalent, so k ∈ S, and the image of k is the entire complex plane except for real numbers ≤ −14 . In 1916, L. Bieberbach [Bi] conjectured that the Koebe function was maximal with respect to the absolute value of the coefficients of its power series. More precisely, he conjectured the...

We develop the K-theory of a C∗–algebra Oλ which represents the leaf space of measured foliations studied by Novikov, Masur, Thurston and Veech. The K-theory construction is based on the coding of geodesic lines due to Koebe and Morse. This method allows to calculate the range of Elliott group (K0, K + 0 , [1]) of Oλ, to establish a condition of strict ergodicity of the interval exchange transf...
