Abstract

For a holomorphic function ff in the open unit disc D\mathbb{D} and ζD\zeta\in\mathbb{D}, Sn(f,ζ)S_n(f,\zeta) denotes the nn-th partial sum of the Taylor development of ff at ζ\zeta. Given an increasing sequence of positive integers μ=(μn)\mu=(\mu_n), we consider the classes U(D,ζ)\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{D},\zeta) (resp. U(μ)(D,ζ)\mathcal{U}^{(\mu)}(\mathbb{D},\zeta)) of such functions ff such that the partial sums {Sn(f,ζ):n=1,2,}\{S_n(f,\zeta):n=1,2,\dots\} (resp. {Sμn(f,ζ):n=1,2,}\{S_{\mu_n}(f,\zeta):n=1,2,\dots\}) approximate all polynomials uniformly on the compact sets K{zC:z1}K\subset\{z\in\mathbb{C}:\vert z\vert\geq 1\} with connected complement. We show that these two classes of universal Taylor series coincide if and only if lim supn(μn+1μn)<+\limsup_n\left(\frac{\mu_{n+1}}{\mu_n}\right)<+\infty. In the same spirit, we prove that, for ζ0,\zeta\ne 0, we have the equality U(μ)(D,ζ)=U(μ)(D,0)\mathcal{U}^{(\mu)}(\mathbb{D},\zeta)=\mathcal{U}^{(\mu)}(\mathbb{D},0) if and only if lim supn(μn+1μn)<+\limsup_n\left(\frac{\mu_{n+1}}{\mu_n}\right)<+\infty. Finally we deal with the case of real universal Taylor series.
