Abstract

In this paper we survey various results concerning extremal problems related to Loewner chains, the Loewner differential equation, and Herglotz vector fields on the Euclidean unit ball \(\mathbb {B}^n\) in \(\mathbb {C}^n\). First, we survey recent results related to extremal problems for the Carathéodory families \({\mathcal M}\) and \({\mathcal N}_A\) on the Euclidean unit ball \(\mathbb {B}^n\) in \(\mathbb {C}^n\), where \(A\in L(\mathbb {C}^n)\) with m(A) > 0. In the second part of this paper, we present recent results related to extremal problems for the family \(S_A^0(\mathbb {B}^n)\) of normalized univalent mappings with A-parametric representation on the Euclidean unit ball \(\mathbb {B}^n\) in \(\mathbb {C}^n\), where \(A\in L(\mathbb {C}^n)\) with k +(A) < 2m(A). In the last section we survey certain results related to extreme points and support points for a special compact subset of \(S_A^0(\mathbb {B}^n)\) consisting of bounded mappings on \(\mathbb {B}^n\). Particular cases, open problems, and questions will be also mentioned.
