Interpolation by Differences In H∞

We pose an interpolation problem for the space of bounded analytic functions in the disk. The interpolation is performed by a function and its di˛erence of values in points whose subscripts are related by an increasing application. We impose that the data values satisfy certain conditions related to the pseudohyperbolic distance, and characterize interpolating sequences in terms of uniformly separated subsequences.

CARLESON INTERPOLATING SEQUENCES FOR BANACH SPACES OF ANALYTIC FUNCTIONS

This paper presents an approach, based on interpolation theory of operators, to the study of interpolating sequences for interpolation Banach spaces between Hardy spaces. It is shown that the famous Carleson result for H ∞ can be lifted to a large class of abstract Hardy spaces. A description is provided of the range of the Carleson operator defined on interpolation spaces between the classical Hardy spaces in terms of uniformly separated sequences. A key role in this description is played by some general interpolation results proved in the paper. As by-products, novel results are obtained which extend the Shapiro–Shields result on the characterisation of interpolation sequences for the classical Hardy spaces H p . Applications to Hardy–Lorentz, Hardy–Marcinkiewicz and Hardy–Orlicz spaces are presented.

Interpolating sequences for weighted Bergman spaces on strongly pseudoconvex bounded domains

Let [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] be a strongly pseudoconvex bounded domain with a smooth boundary in [Formula: see text]. We will study the interpolation problem for weighted Bergman spaces [Formula: see text]. In the case, [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the conjugate exponent of [Formula: see text] (let [Formula: see text], for [Formula: see text]), we show that a sequence in [Formula: see text], the unit ball in [Formula: see text], is interpolating for [Formula: see text] if and only if it is separated.

Row Contractions Annihilated by Interpolating Vanishing Ideals

We study similarity classes of commuting row contractions annihilated by what we call higher-order vanishing ideals of interpolating sequences. Our main result exhibits a Jordan-type direct sum decomposition for these row contractions. We illustrate how the family of ideals to which our theorem applies is very rich, especially in several variables. We also give two applications of the main result. First, we obtain a purely operator theoretic characterization of interpolating sequences for the multiplier algebra of the Drury–Arveson space. Second, we classify certain classes of cyclic commuting row contractions up to quasi-similarity in terms of their annihilating ideals. This refines some of our recent work on the topic. We show how this classification is sharp: in general quasi-similarity cannot be improved to similarity. The obstruction to doing so is a scarcity of norm-controlled similarities between commuting tuples of nilpotent matrices, and we investigate this question in detail.

Converse growth estimates for ODEs with slowly growing solutions

Let $$f_1,f_2$$ f 1 , f 2 be linearly independent solutions of $$f''+Af=0$$ f ′ ′ + A f = 0 , where the coefficient A is an analytic function in the open unit disc $${\mathbb {D}}$$ D of the complex plane $${\mathbb {C}}$$ C . It is shown that many properties of this differential equation can be described in terms of the subharmonic auxiliary function $$u=-\log \, (f_1/f_2)^{\#}$$ u = - log ( f 1 / f 2 ) # . For example, the case when $$\sup _{z\in {\mathbb {D}}} |A(z)|(1-|z|^2)^2 < \infty $$ sup z ∈ D | A ( z ) | ( 1 - | z | 2 ) 2 < ∞ and $$f_1/f_2$$ f 1 / f 2 is normal, is characterized by the condition $$\sup _{z\in {\mathbb {D}}} |\nabla u(z)|(1-|z|^2) < \infty $$ sup z ∈ D | ∇ u ( z ) | ( 1 - | z | 2 ) < ∞ . Different types of Blaschke-oscillatory equations are also described in terms of harmonic majorants of u. Even if $$f_1,f_2$$ f 1 , f 2 are bounded linearly independent solutions of $$f''+Af=0$$ f ′ ′ + A f = 0 , it is possible that $$\sup _{z\in {\mathbb {D}}} |A(z)|(1-|z|^2)^2 = \infty $$ sup z ∈ D | A ( z ) | ( 1 - | z | 2 ) 2 = ∞ or $$f_1/f_2$$ f 1 / f 2 is non-normal. These results relate to sharpness discussion of recent results in the literature, and are succeeded by a detailed analysis of differential equations with bounded solutions. Analogues for the Nevanlinna class are also considered, by taking advantage of Nevanlinna interpolating sequences. It is shown that, instead of considering solutions with prescribed zeros, it is possible to construct a bounded solution of $$f''+Af=0$$ f ′ ′ + A f = 0 in such a way that it solves an interpolation problem natural to bounded analytic functions, while $$|A(z)|^2(1-|z|^2)^3\, dm(z)$$ | A ( z ) | 2 ( 1 - | z | 2 ) 3 d m ( z ) remains to be a Carleson measure.

From ℋ∞ to 𝒩. Pointwise properties and algebraic structure in the Nevanlinna class

This survey shows how, for the Nevanlinna class 𝒩 of the unit disc, one can define and often characterize the analogues of well-known objects and properties related to the algebra of bounded analytic functions ℋ∞: interpolating sequences, Corona theorem, sets of determination, stable rank, as well as the more recent notions of Weak Embedding Property and threshold of invertibility for quotient algebras. The general rule we observe is that a given result for ℋ∞ can be transposed to 𝒩 by replacing uniform bounds by a suitable control by positive harmonic functions. We show several instances where this rule applies, as well as some exceptions. We also briefly discuss the situation for the related Smirnov class.
