Non-linear resolvents of holomorphically accretive mappings

Abstract In this paper, we present new results on holomorphically accretive mappings and their resolvents defined on the open unit ball of a complex Banach space. We employ a unified approach to examine various properties of non-linear resolvents by applying a distortion theorem we have established. This method enables us to prove a covering result and to establish the accretivity of resolvents along with estimates of the squeezing ratio. Furthermore, we prove that under certain mild conditions, a non-linear resolvent is a starlike mapping of a specified order. As a key tool, we first introduce a refined version of the inverse function theorem for mappings satisfying so-called one-sided estimates.
