Multidimensional analogues of the improved Bohr's inequality for shifted polydisks
The pith
A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.
Core claim
Holomorphic functions belonging to a broader class than previously treated, defined on general simply connected domains in C^n, obey improved multidimensional Bohr inequalities that refine the earlier results of Evdoridis et al. for shifted disks; in addition, pluriharmonic mappings on any polydisk containing the unit polydisk satisfy a Bohr-type majorant inequality.
What carries the argument
The multidimensional Bohr majorant inequality itself: an upper bound, valid inside a certain polydisk or domain of positive radius, that replaces the values of a holomorphic or pluriharmonic mapping by the sum of the moduli of its power-series coefficients, controlled by the supremum of the mapping.
Load-bearing premise
The one-variable improved Bohr techniques of Evdoridis et al. extend to the claimed broader holomorphic class on simply connected domains in C^n and to pluriharmonic mappings on larger polydisks without extra hypotheses that would force the stated radii to shrink.
What would settle it
An explicit holomorphic function on a simply connected domain in C^n (or a pluriharmonic mapping on a polydisk containing the unit polydisk) whose coefficient majorant exceeds the function's supremum inside every polydisk larger than the radius claimed by the paper.
If this is right
- Bohr radii previously known only for shifted disks become available for holomorphic functions on arbitrary simply connected domains in several complex variables.
- The admissible class of holomorphic functions is strictly larger than the class treated by Evdoridis et al. (2021).
- Pluriharmonic mappings on any polydisk containing the unit polydisk admit a Bohr-type majorant inequality.
- Coefficient-sum estimates can be used on domains that properly contain the classical unit polydisk.
Where Pith is reading between the lines
- The same majorant technique may adapt to other classes of mappings (e.g., harmonic or quasiregular) once corresponding one-variable Bohr radii are known.
- If the radii turn out to be sharp, the paper would supply extremal examples that could serve as benchmarks for future multidimensional Bohr problems.
- The results suggest a possible dictionary between geometric properties of the domain and the size of the Bohr radius in several complex variables.

Referee Report
Summary. The manuscript investigates the Bohr phenomenon for holomorphic functions on general simply connected domains in C^n. It claims to improve the results of Evdoridis et al. (Results Math. 76, 14, 2021) for a broader class of holomorphic functions in several complex variables, and further establishes a Bohr-type inequality for pluriharmonic mappings defined on a polydisk containing the unit polydisk PΔ(0_n, 1_n).
Significance. If the claimed improvements hold with the stated generality and without hidden restrictions that shrink the radii, the work would extend the improved Bohr inequality of Evdoridis et al. from the one-variable shifted-disk setting to a multi-variable holomorphic class on simply connected domains in C^n and to pluriharmonic mappings on enlarged polydisks. Such extensions are of genuine interest in geometric function theory. The abstract alone does not allow confirmation of sharpness, explicit radii, or the breadth of the function class, so significance remains conditional on the body of the paper.
major comments (2)
- [Manuscript body (unavailable)] Only the abstract is available for review. The central claims—an improvement of Evdoridis et al. (2021) for a broader holomorphic class on simply connected domains in C^n, and a Bohr-type inequality for pluriharmonic mappings on polydisks containing the unit polydisk—cannot be checked for correctness of proofs, precision of the radii obtained, or the presence of restrictive hypotheses that would limit the stated generality. A full assessment requires the complete manuscript with theorems, lemmas, and comparisons.
- [Abstract (central claims)] The abstract asserts an extension of one-variable improved Bohr techniques to a broader multi-variable class and to pluriharmonic mappings without indicating whether additional hypotheses are imposed. Without the precise function-class definitions and the statements of the main theorems, it is impossible to verify that the multi-variable extension does not shrink the radii relative to the one-variable results being improved.
minor comments (2)
- [Abstract] Typographical errors in the abstract: 'Bhor phenomenon' should read 'Bohr phenomenon'; 'Evdordis et al.' should read 'Evdoridis et al.' (consistent with the cited Results Math. 76, 14 (2021)).
- [Abstract] Notation for the unit polydisk is written PΔ(0_n, 1_n); a brief clarification of this symbol (and consistency with standard polydisk notation) would aid readability once the full text is available.
Circularity Check
No circularity detectable from abstract-only text; claimed improvements are presented as analytic extensions of prior Bohr inequalities.
full rationale
Only the abstract is available. It states that the authors investigate the Bohr phenomenon for holomorphic functions on general simply connected domains in C^n, improve results of Evdoridis et al. (2021) for a broader class, and establish a Bohr-type inequality for pluriharmonic mappings on a polydisk containing the unit polydisk. No equations, definitions of the function classes, fitted parameters, uniqueness theorems, or self-citations appear in the provided text. There is therefore no load-bearing step that can be shown to reduce by construction to its inputs, no fitted quantity renamed as a prediction, and no self-citation chain that forces the central claim. Standard citation of Evdoridis et al. is external prior work, not circular. Per the hard rules, an honest non-finding is required when the derivation cannot be inspected for reduction; score 0 with empty steps is the correct outcome. Any deeper circularity (or lack thereof) would require the full body.

read the original abstract
In this article, we investigate the Bhor phenomenon for holomorphic functions defined on a general simply connected domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$. We improve the existing results Evdordis et al. (Improved Bohr's inequality for shifted disks, Results in Mathematics, 76, 14 (2021)) for a broader class of holomorphic functions in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Furthermore, we consider pluriharmonic mappings defined on a polydisk containing the unit polydisk $\mathbb{P}\Delta(0_n, 1_n)$ and establish a Bohr-type inequality for this class of mappings.
