Convolution equations in spaces of entire functions and related properties of conformal mappings

(18 pages)

Abstract. In this paper we consider convolution equations in Frechet and dual Frechet algebras of entire functions. The emphasis lies on nonradial weight functions defining the algebras of entire functions. With the help of various methods from functional analysis a necessary conditon is derived for a convolution operator to be surjective. Further we construct examples of nonsurjective convolution operators. Then sufficient conditions for surjectivity of convolution operators are discussed. For one complex variable, certain properties of level sets of conformal mappings appear to be of some importance in this context. On the other hand the examples of nonsurjective convolution operators give some insight into the behavior of related conformal mappings and yield new results in the variational theory of conformal mappings.
