# Berenstein rigidity EP-1-H1-to-H4

## Setting

You are solving a mathematical proof problem. Assume only the stated starting checkpoint result and establish the stated target result. Check its hypotheses when applying it. Prove any other intermediate claims you need. End with a clear proof, or identify any gap you cannot close.

## Problem

H1: Let \(m\ge2\) be an integer and let \(\rho>1\). Put \(D=\{z\in\mathbb C:|z|<1\}\). For \(\ell\in\mathbb Z\) and \(s\in\mathbb Z_{\ge0}\), set
\[
\Phi_{\ell,s}(r,\theta)=r^{m|\ell|}P_s^{(0,m|\ell|)}(2r^2-1)e^{im\ell\theta},
\]
where \(P_s^{(0,b)}\) is the Jacobi polynomial normalized by \(P_s^{(0,b)}(1)=1\).
Let \(W_{m,\rho}\) consist of complex coefficient series \(g=\sum_{\ell,s}g_{\ell,s}\Phi_{\ell,s}\) with
\[
\|g\|_\rho=\sum_{\ell,s}\rho^{|\ell|}|g_{\ell,s}|<\infty.
\]
Let \(Y_{m,\rho}\) be the real subspace of \(W_{m,\rho}\) consisting of real-valued functions invariant under \(\theta\mapsto-\theta\).
Let \(P_{m,\rho}\) consist of holomorphic series \(a(z)=\sum_{j\ge0}a_jz^{mj}\) with real coefficients and norm
\(\|a\|_P=\sum_{j\ge0}\rho^j|a_j|<\infty\).
Let \(B_{m,\rho}\) consist of real-valued, reflection-invariant boundary series
\(b(\theta)=\sum_{\ell\in\mathbb Z}b_\ell e^{im\ell\theta}\), with norm
\(\|b\|_B=\sum_\ell\rho^{|\ell|}|b_\ell|<\infty\).
For \(g\in Y_{m,\rho}\), let \(K_Dg\) denote the weak solution, when it exists, of \(\Delta U=g\) in \(D\) with zero Dirichlet trace; put \(Ng=\partial_r(K_Dg)|_{\partial D}\), with the derivative understood as its boundary trace.

For every integer \(m\ge2\) and every \(\rho>1\), the coefficient series define continuous functions on their respective closed domains. The spaces \(W_{m,\rho}\), \(Y_{m,\rho}\), \(P_{m,\rho}\), and \(B_{m,\rho}\) are Banach algebras. Their multiplication and supremum-norm embedding constants are at most one.
For every \(g\in Y_{m,\rho}\), the weak Dirichlet solution exists and belongs to
\(Y_{m,\rho}\cap W^{2,q}(D)\cap W_0^{1,q}(D)\) for every finite \(q>1\). The operators satisfy
\[
\|K_D\|_{Y_{m,\rho}\to Y_{m,\rho}}=\frac14,
\qquad
\|N\|_{Y_{m,\rho}\to B_{m,\rho}}=\frac12.
\]
With the operators extended complex linearly,
\[
N\Phi_{\ell,0}=\frac{e^{im\ell\theta}}{2(m|\ell|+1)},
\qquad N\Phi_{\ell,s}=0\quad(s\ge1).
\]

Prove H4: Let \(D=\{z\in\mathbb C:|z|<1\}\). There exist an integer \(m\ge2\), a real number \(k>0\), a holomorphic function \(\phi\) on a neighborhood of \(\overline D\), and a real-valued function \(U\in C^2(\overline D)\), such that
\[
\phi(0)=0,\qquad \phi'(0)=1,\qquad
\operatorname{Re}\phi'(z)>0\quad(z\in\overline D),
\]
\[
\phi(e^{2\pi i/m}z)=e^{2\pi i/m}\phi(z)\quad(z\in D),
\qquad \phi\not\equiv z,
\]
and
\[
\Delta U+k^2|\phi'|^2U=0\quad\text{in }D,
\]
\[
U=0,\qquad \partial_r U=|\phi'|\quad\text{on }\partial D,
\]
where \(\partial_r\) is the outward radial derivative on the unit circle.
