The Schwarz-Pick lemma for slice regular functions

Abstract: The celebrated Schwarz-Pick lemma for the complex unit disk is the basis for the study of hyperbolic geometry in one and in several complex variables. In the present paper, we turn our attention to the quaternionic unit ball B. We prove a version of the Schwarz-Pick lemma for self-maps of B that are slice regular, according to the definition of Gentili and Struppa. The lemma has interesting applications in the fixed-point case, and it generalizes to the case of vanishing higher order derivatives.Comment: to ap… Show more

“…for all q ∈ B. The work [2] proved the quaternionic Schwarz-Pick Lemma and, in particular, the inequality log |f (q)| ≤ log |M q0 (q)| valid for all regular f : B → B with f (q 0 ) = 0. It is therefore natural to ask ourselves whether an equality may hold in (12).…”

“…The proof was based on the following lemmas, proven in [8] and in [7], respectively. Finally, the following lemma, proven in [7] as a further tool for the proof of Theorem 2.15, will also be useful later in this paper.…”

“…For slice regular functions on the quaternionic unit ball B, the Schwarz lemma and its boundary version were proven in [20,22]. Slice regular analogs of the Möbius transformations of B have been introduced and studied in [8,23,31], leading to the generalization of the Schwarz-Pick lemma in [7]. Other results concerning slice regular functions on B have been published in [2,3,11,12,14,15,17].…”

“…Such a notion has its source in the work by Fueter, further developed by Ghiloni and Perotti. It represents a counterpart in several variables of the notion of slice-regular function in one quaternionic variable studied in [GS06,GS07], which appeared to share with holomorphic functions a rich theory from the analytic point of view, [BS12], [BS17]; see also [CSS12]. We refer to [GSS13,GP12] for precise definitions and for results.…”
