abstract
Numerical and theoretical aspects of conformal mappings from a disk to a circular-arc quadrilateral, symmetric with respect to the coordinate axes, are developed. The problem of relating the accessory parameters (prevertices together with coeffcients in the Schwarzian derivative) to the geometric parameters is solved numerically, including the determination of the parameters for univalence. The study involves the related mapping from an appropriate Euclidean rectangle to the circular-arc quadrilateral. Its Schwarzian derivative involves the Weierstrass -function, and consideration of this related mapping problem leads to some new formulas concerning the zeroes and the images of the half-periods of. 2011 Heldermann Verlag.
