On computation of capacities and conformal invariants

Abstract

We give a survey of computation of the conformal capacity of planar condensers, generalized capacity, and logarithmic capacity with emphasis on our recent work 2020-2025. We also discuss some applications of our method based on the boundary integral equation with the generalized Neumann kernel to the computation of several other conformal invariants: harmonic measure, modulus of a quadrilateral, reduced modulus, hyperbolic capacity, and elliptic capacity. Here the solution of mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary value problem for the Laplace equation has a key role. At the end of the paper we give a topicwise structured list to our extensive bibliography on constructive complex analysis and potential theory.
