Asymptotic Properties of Unbounded Quadrature Domains in the Plane

Abstract

We prove that if $\Omega$ is a simply connected quadrature domain for a distribution with compact support and the infinity point belongs the boundary, then the boundary has an asymptotic curve that is either a straight line or a parabola or an infinite ray. In other words, unbounded quadrature domains in the plane are perturbations of null quadrature domains.
