The Bergman analytic content of planar domains

Given a planar domain $Ω$, the Bergman analytic content measures the $L^{2}(Ω)$-distance between $\bar{z}$ and the Bergman space $A^{2}(Ω)$. We compute the Bergman analytic content of simply-connected quadrature domains with quadrature formula supported at one point, and we also determine the function $f \in A^2(Ω)$ that best approximates $\bar{z}$. We show that, for simply-connected domains, the square of Bergman analytic content is equivalent to torsional rigidity from classical elasticity theory, while for multiply-connected domains these two domain constants are not equivalent in general.
