(I) For any 0 < r < 1 and 0 ρ < 1, the author constructs a closed convex domain Er,ρ such that F((z,r)) eiαEr,ρ = {eiαz : z ∈ Er,ρ} holds for every z ∈ D, w = ρeiα and harmonic mapping F with F(D)D and F(z) = w, where △(z,r) is the pseudo-disk of center z and pseudo-radius r; conversely, for every z ∈ D, w = ρeiα and w ∈ eiαEr,ρ, there exists a harmonic mapping F such that F(D) D, F(z) = w and F(z ) = w for some z ∈ △(z,r). (II) The author establishes a Finsler metric Hz(u) on the unit disk D such that HF(z)(eiθFz(z) + e-iθFz(z)) ≤1 /(1- |z|2)holds for any z ∈ D, 0 θ 2π and harmonic mapping F with F(D)D; furthermore, this result is precise and the equality may be attained for any values of z, θ, F(z) and arg(eiθFz(z) + e-iθFz(z)).展开更多

We demonstrate that the combinations of these harmonic mappings are convex in the vertical direction provided they are locally univalent and sense-preserving. Furthermore, we extend this analysis to a more general case by setting specific conditions. Additionally, we take some common parameters such as as the dilatation of these harmonic mappings, and prove the sufficient conditions that their combinations are locally univalent and convex in the vertical direction. Several examples are constructed by the Mathematica software to demonstrate our main results.展开更多
