Abstract

A conformal map f of the unit disk D of the complex plane into itself is called hyperbolically convex if the hyperbolic segment between any two points of f (D) also lies in f (D). These functions form a non-linear space invariant under Moebius transformations of D onto itself. The fact that this space is non-linear makes it impossible to use many of the standard methods.

This survey talk will concentrate on

  • Analytic characterizations of h-convex functions

  • Inequalities for h-convex functions

  • Hausdorff dimension of image sets

A few proofs will be sketched.
