Abstract
The aim of this paper is to show that univalent functions in several classical function spaces can be characterized by integral conditions involving the maximum modulus function. For a suitable choice of parameters, the established condition or its appropriate variant reduces to a known characterization of univalent functions in the Hardy or weighted Bergman space and gives a new characterization of univalent functions in several Möbius invariant function spaces, such as BMOA, Q p or the Bloch space. It is proved, for example, that univalent functions in the Dirichlet type space \( \mathcal{D}_{p + \alpha }^p \) are the same as the univalent functions in H pα and S pα if p ≥ 2. Moreover, it is shown that there is in a sense a much smaller Möbius invariant subspace of the Bloch space than Q p still containing all univalent Bloch functions.
