Abstract

For a wide class of domains GCdG\subset\mathbb C^d including balls and polydisks we prove the density of their canonical image in the spectrum of H(G)H^\infty(G). This Corona Theorem is proved first in its abstract version for certain uniform algebras. We use properties of bands of measures and idempotents corresponding to Gleason parts. The essential tools are properties of hyper-Stonean spaces, normal and Henkin measures and some ideas based on Hoffman - Rossi theorem. We also use our previous results on weak-star closures of reducing bands of measures. Uniform bounds for operators used to solve the Gleason problem concerning ideals of analytic functions vanishing at given points are applied for bidual algebras.
