Abstract
Five domain constants are studied in our paper, all related to the hyperbolic geometry in hyperbolic plane regions which are uniformly perfect (in Pommerenke’s terminology). Relations among these domain constants are obtained, from which bounds are derived for the variance ratio of each constant under conformal mappings of the regions, and we also show that each constant may be used to characterize uniformly perfect regions.
