Critical values of inner functions

Complex Variables 2023-10-31 v2

Abstract

Let J\mathscr J be the space of inner functions of finite entropy endowed with the topology of stable convergence. We prove that an inner function FJF \in \mathscr J possesses a radial limit (and in fact, a minimal fine limit) in the unit disk at σ(F)\sigma(F') a.e. point on the unit circle. We use this to show that the singular value measure ν(F)=ccrit F(1c)δF(c)+F(σ(F))\nu(F) = \sum_{c \in \text{crit } F} (1-|c|) \cdot \delta_{F(c)} + F_*(\sigma(F')) varies continuously in FF. Our analysis involves a surprising connection between Beurling-Carleson sets and angular derivatives.
