Regularity of Extremal Functions in Weighted Bergman and Fock Type Spaces

We discuss the regularity of extremal functions in certain weighted Bergman and Fock type spaces. Given an appropriate analytic function $k$, the corresponding extremal function is the function with unit norm maximizing $\text{Re} \int_Ωf(z) \overline{k(z)}\, ν(z) \, dA(z)$ over all functions $f$ of unit norm, where $ν$ is the weight function and $Ω$ is the domain of the functions in the space. We consider the case where $ν(z)$ is a decreasing radial function satisfying some additional assumptions, and where $Ω$ is either a disc centered at the origin or the entire complex plane. We show that if $k$ grows slowly in a certain sense, then $f$ must grow slowly in a related sense. We also discuss a relation between the integrability and growth of certain log-convex functions, and apply the result to obtain information about the growth of integral means of extremal functions in Fock type spaces.
