Title

On a question of T. Sheil-Small regarding valency of harmonic maps

Authors ,

Abstract

The aim of this work is to answer positively a more general question than the following which is due to T. Sheil-Small: Does the harmonic extension in the open unit disc of a mapping f from the unit circle into itself of the form f(eit)=eiϕ(t), 0t2π where ϕ is a continuously non-decreasing function that satisfies ϕ(2π)ϕ(0)=2Nπ, assume every value finitely many times in the disc?

Keywords
