Bohr-Rogosinski in Several Complex Variables

Updated 17 January 2026
  • Bohr-Rogosinski phenomenon is defined by the quantitative relation between the modulus of bounded holomorphic functions on the unit polydisc and the sum of their Taylor coefficients.
  • The methodology employs sharp radius determination via explicit root equations and extremal functions, extending classical univariate results to multivariate and Banach space contexts.
  • Applications include derivative and area-type refinements that enhance classical inequalities, impacting studies on vector-valued, lacunary, and multivariate holomorphic functions.

The Bohr-Rogosinski phenomenon in several complex variables concerns the quantitative relationship between the modulus of a bounded holomorphic function on the unit polydisc and the sum of the moduli of its Taylor coefficients, or generalizations thereof, with pointwise or functionally refined terms. This theory seeks sharp radii ("Bohr-Rogosinski radii") up to which inequalities—analogous to the classical univariate Bohr and Rogosinski inequalities—hold in the multivariable setting, extending also to vector-valued, lacunary, and Banach-space contexts. Recent works have provided definitive sharp constants, established multidimensional analogues of univariate results, and incorporated directional (Euler operator) growth and area-based improvements (Ahamed et al., 10 Jan 2026, Ahammed et al., 26 Aug 2025, Ahamed et al., 2024).

1. Framework: Domains, Function Classes, and Notation

The unit polydisc in Cn\mathbb{C}^n is defined as

Dn={z=(z1,,zn)Cn:zj<1,  j=1,,n}\mathbb{D}^n = \{\, z=(z_1,\dots,z_n)\in\mathbb{C}^n : |z_j|<1,\; j=1,\dots,n\,\}

with the sup-norm z=maxjzj\|z\|_\infty = \max_j{|z_j|}. A multi-index α=(α1,...,αn)Nn\alpha=(\alpha_1,...,\alpha_n)\in\mathbb{N}^n has length α=α1++αn|\alpha| = \alpha_1+\cdots+\alpha_n and monomial zα=z1α1znαnz^\alpha = z_1^{\alpha_1}\cdots z_n^{\alpha_n}. Holomorphic functions f:DnCf:\mathbb{D}^n\to\mathbb{C} admit power series expansions

f(z)=α0aαzαf(z) = \sum_{|\alpha|\ge 0} a_\alpha z^\alpha

where the convergence holds for zDnz\in \mathbb{D}^n. The class Bn,m\mathcal{B}_{n,m} denotes multivariate Schwarz functions vanishing to order mm at the origin: Bn,m={ω(z)=(ω1(z1),,ωn(zn)):ωj(k)(0)=0 for 0k<m, ωj(zj)<1}\mathcal{B}_{n,m} = \left\{ \omega(z) = (\omega_1(z_1), \dots, \omega_n(z_n)) : \omega_j^{(k)}(0) = 0 \text{ for } 0\leq k < m, \ |\omega_j(z_j)|<1 \right\} where each ωj\omega_j is univariate.

In the broader Banach space context, for (X,X)(X, \|\cdot\|_X) a complex Banach sequence space of dimension nn (e.g., tn\ell_t^n), the open unit ball is BX={zX:zX<1}B_X = \{ z \in X : \|z\|_X < 1 \}. Holomorphic functions F:BXYF:B_X \to Y (with YY a complex Banach space) admit Fréchet–Taylor expansions involving symmetric ss-linear maps DsF(0)D^sF(0) and multi-index power series as above (Ahammed et al., 26 Aug 2025, Ahamed et al., 2024).

2. Multivariate Bohr and Bohr–Rogosinski Inequalities

The classical Bohr inequality for f(z)=k0akzkf(z) = \sum_{k\ge 0} a_k z^k holomorphic on D\mathbb{D} with f(z)1|f(z)|\leq 1 states

k0akrk1forr1/3\sum_{k\ge 0} |a_k|r^k \leq 1 \quad\text{for}\quad r\leq 1/3

with sharpness at r=1/3r=1/3. In several variables, for ff holomorphic on Dn\mathbb{D}^n with f(z)1|f(z)|\leq 1, the multivariate Bohr inequality is (Ahamed et al., 10 Jan 2026): α0aαrα1forrRn:=1/(3n)\sum_{|\alpha|\ge0} |a_\alpha| r^{|\alpha|} \leq 1 \quad\text{for}\quad r \leq R_n := 1/(3n) and Rn=1/(3n)R_n=1/(3n) is sharp.

The Bohr–Rogosinski inequality in Dn\mathbb{D}^n is formulated as follows: For ωBn,m\omega \in \mathcal{B}_{n,m} and NNN\in\mathbb{N},

f(ω(z))+i=1α=iNaαrα1ifnrRm,n,N|f(\omega(z))| + \sum_{i=1}^\infty \sum_{|\alpha|=iN} |a_\alpha| r^{|\alpha|} \leq 1 \quad\text{if}\quad n\,r \leq R_{m,n,N}

where Rm,n,NR_{m,n,N} is the unique positive root of

Ψm,n,N(r):=2(nr)N(1+rm)(1nr)(1rm)=0\Psi_{m,n,N}(r) := 2(nr)^N(1 + r^m) - (1 - n r)(1 - r^m) = 0

with optimality verified by extremal functions. As NN\to\infty, Rm,n,N1R_{m,n,N}\to 1 for n=1n=1 and $1/n$ for n2n\ge 2 (Ahamed et al., 10 Jan 2026).

In vector-valued and Banach-space settings, analogous Bohr and Bohr–Rogosinski radii are defined, involving sums of norms of Fréchet–Taylor coefficients and their partials, again with sharp values determined by roots of explicit balancing equations incorporating functionally refined terms, parameters for lacunarity, and operator-valued contexts (Ahammed et al., 26 Aug 2025, Ahamed et al., 2024).

3. Derivative and Area-Type Refinements

The multivariable Euler (radial) derivative is given by

Df(z)=k=1nzkfzk(z)Df(z) = \sum_{k=1}^n z_k \frac{\partial f}{\partial z_k}(z)

which generalizes zf(z)z f'(z) from the univariate setting. For ff bounded by $1$ on Dn\mathbb{D}^n,

Df(z)1f(z)21r2nr|Df(z)| \leq \frac{1 - |f(z)|^2}{1 - r^2} n r

for z=r\|z\|_\infty = r. This estimate sharpens the Bohr inequality further by incorporating local growth via Df(z)Df(z).

A sharp Bohr plus radial-derivative inequality holds (Ahamed et al., 10 Jan 2026): f(z)+Df(z)+λk=2α=kaαrα1whenevernrRn,λ|f(z)| + |Df(z)| + \lambda\sum_{k=2}^\infty \sum_{|\alpha|=k} |a_\alpha| r^{|\alpha|} \leq 1 \quad\text{whenever}\quad n\,r\leq R_{n,\lambda} Rn,λR_{n,\lambda} is determined exactly as the positive root of a quartic polynomial in nrn r (distinct forms depending on λ\lambda), with all constants sharp.

Area-based refinements involve the Dirichlet-type sum

Sr=k1k(α=kaα2)r2kS_r = \sum_{k\ge1} k\left(\sum_{|\alpha|=k} |a_\alpha|^2\right) r^{2k}

and validate inequalities blending Bohr-type and Dirichlet-type terms, extending the classical one-variable “area additive” improvements (Ahamed et al., 10 Jan 2026).

4. Sharpness Mechanisms and Extremal Functions

Establishment of sharpness across these phenomena is achieved by constructing explicit extremal mappings: fa(z)=a(z1++zn)1a(z1++zn),a[0,1)f_a(z) = \frac{a-(z_1+\cdots+z_n)}{1 - a(z_1+\cdots+z_n)},\quad a\in[0,1) For the vector-valued case, extremals reduce to

F(z)=(b+z11+bz1,0,,0),b1F(z) = \left(\frac{b+z_1}{1+b z_1}, 0, \dots, 0\right),\quad b\to 1^-

Testing inequalities at z=(r,0,,0)z = (r,0,\dots,0) or on the diagonal z=(r,,r)z = (r,\dots, r) with a1a\to 1 or b1b\to 1 exposes the limiting behavior at the radius and justifies that no larger rr can universally hold (Ahamed et al., 10 Jan 2026, Ahammed et al., 26 Aug 2025). In lacunary or Banach space settings, similar extremals reduce the analysis to the univariate case, retaining the sharp radius.

5. Role of Lacunarity and Functional-Type Corrections

Functions with lacunary expansions

f(z)=s=0aqs+mzqs+mf(z) = \sum_{s=0}^\infty a_{q s + m} z^{qs + m}

exhibit improved Bohr radii: the sparsity of nonzero coefficients accelerates convergence of the tail, raising the critical rr. The Bohr radius becomes the unique solution of

rm1rq=p2\frac{r^m}{1 - r^q} = \frac{p}{2}

or related equations parameterized by the lacunarity pattern and refinement parameters (Ahammed et al., 26 Aug 2025, Ahamed et al., 2024).

Functional-type and norm-type refinements further incorporate the action of supporting functionals in Banach spaces, as well as power corrections and quadratic (area-type) tail terms. These terms do not diminish the sharp radii in finite or infinite dimensions, a robustness property of the phenomenon.

6. Comparison with Classical Univariate Results

In the classical one-variable scenario, the Bohr radius is $1/3$ and the limiting Bohr–Rogosinski radius for the NNth partial sum is $1$ for large NN, with R1=1/3R_{1}=1/3 and RN1R_N\uparrow 1. In several complex variables, the polydisc Bohr radius scales as $1/(3n)$, reflecting the combinatorial growth in the number of homogeneous monomials of fixed degree. Extremal phenomena and proof techniques fundamentally reduce to optimized one-variable behavior on slices, or arguments via Hahn–Banach separation in infinite-dimensional normed settings (Ahamed et al., 10 Jan 2026, Ahammed et al., 26 Aug 2025, Ahamed et al., 2024).

7. Significance and Contemporary Developments

The determination of explicit, sharp Bohr-Rogosinski radii for multivariate, vector-valued, and lacunary holomorphic mappings on domains such as the polydisc or Banach balls resolves longstanding open questions and enables direct transfer of the Bohr phenomenon to multidimensional and operator-theoretic settings. The robustness of these phenomena under addition of functional corrections and their invariance under passage to Banach space geometries highlight the structural depth of the underlying analytic inequalities. Current research also generalizes to directional derivatives, area-type improvements, and explores connections to Dirichlet forms and operator-valued holomorphic function theory (Ahamed et al., 10 Jan 2026, Ahammed et al., 26 Aug 2025, Ahamed et al., 2024).
