Let $D$ be a noncommutative division ring. In a recent paper, Lee and Lin proved that if $\text{char}\, D\ne 2$, the only solution of additive maps $f, g$ on $D$ satisfying the identity $f(x) = x^n g(x^{-1})$ on $D\setminus \{0\}$ with…

We present an algorithm producing all rational functions $f$ with prescribed $n+1$ Taylor coefficients at the origin and such that $\|f\|_\infty\le 1$ and $\deg f\le k$ for every fixed $k\ge n$. The case where $k<n$ is also discussed.

Let Delta^{n} be the unit polydisc in C^{n} and let f be a holomorphic self map of Delta^{n}. When n=1, it is well known, by Schwarz's lemma, that f has at most one fixed point in the unit disc. If no such point exists then f has a unique…

We study systems of equations of the form X1 = f1(X1, ..., Xn), ..., Xn = fn(X1, ..., Xn), where each fi is a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients that add up to 1. The least nonnegative solution, say mu, of such equation systems is…

We introduce the following linear combination interpolation problem (LCI): Given $N$ distinct numbers $w_1,\ldots w_N$ and $N+1$ complex numbers $a_1,\ldots, a_N$ and $c$, find all functions $f(z)$ analytic in a simply connected set…

We prove a realization formula and a model formula for analytic functions with modulus bounded by $1$ on the symmetrized bidisc \[ G\stackrel{\rm def}{=} \{(z+w,zw): |z|<1, \, |w| < 1\}. \] As an application we prove a Pick-type theorem…

Let $D$ be a closed disk in the complex plane centered at the origin, $f, g$ complex valued continuous function on $D$. Let $P[f,g; D]$ (res. $R[f, g; D])$) be the uniform closure on $D$ of polynomials (res. rational functions) in variables…

Given a domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^m$, and a finite set of points $z_1,\ldots, z_n\in \Omega$ and $w_1,\ldots, w_n\in \mathbb{D}$ (the open unit disc in the complex plane), the $Pick\, interpolation\, problem$ asks when there is a…

In this paper we investigate the following problem: when a bounded analytic function $\phi$ on the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, fixing 0, is such that $\{\phi^n : n = 0, 1, 2, . . . \}$ is orthogonal in $\mathbb{D}$?, and consider the problem of…

We investigate the sets of uniform limits $A(\bar{B}_n)$, $A(\bar{D}^I)$ of polynomials on the closed unit ball $\bar{B}_n$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ and on the cartesian product $\bar{D}^I$ where $I$ is an arbitrary set and $\bar{D}$ is the closed…

For an analytic function $f(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_kz^k$ on a neighbourhood of a closed disc $D\subset {\bf C}$, we give assumptions, in terms of the Taylor coefficients $a_k$ of $f$, under which the number of intersection points of the…

This paper focuses on the problem of reconstructing a vector of rational functions given some evaluations, or more generally given their remainders modulo different polynomials. The special case of rational functions sharing the same…
