Walsh's Conformal Map onto Lemniscatic Domains for Polynomial Pre-images II
share
We consider Walsh's conformal map from the exterior of a set E=⋃_j=1^ℓ E_j consisting of ℓ compact disjoint components onto a lemniscatic domain. In particular, we are interested in the case when E is a polynomial preimage of [-1,1], i.e., when E=P^-1([-1,1]), where P is an algebraic polynomial of degree n. Of special interest are the exponents and the centers of the lemniscatic domain. In the first part of this series of papers, a very simple formula for the exponents has been derived. In this paper, based on general results of the first part, we give an iterative method for computing the centers when E is the union of ℓ intervals. Once the centers are known, the corresponding Walsh map can be computed numerically. In addition, if E consists of ℓ=2 or ℓ=3 components satisfying certain symmetry relations then the centers and the corresponding Walsh map are given by explicit formulas. All our theorems are illustrated with analytical or numerical examples.
