We investigate the Pick problem for the polydisk and unit ball using dual algebra techniques. Some factorization results for Bergman spaces are used to describe a Pick theorem for any bounded region in $\mathbb{C}^d$.
We give a solution to Pick's interpolation problem on the unit polydisc in $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n\geq 2$, by characterizing all interpolation data that admit a $\mathbb{D}$-valued interpolant, in terms of a family of positive-definite kernels…
It is very elementary to observe that functions interpolating an extremal two-point Pick problem on the polydisc are just left inverses to complex geodesics. In the present article we show that the same property holds for a three-point Pick…
For each n,N>0 we construct a set of points x_1,...,x_M in D^n with the following property: if f is a rational inner function on D^n of degree strictly less than N and g is an analytic function mapping D^n to D that satisfies g(x_i)=f(x_i)…

This paper studies the determining sets for analytic functions from the symmetrized bidisk into the open unit disk in $\mathbb C$. It relates the idea to the uniqueness of the solutions of a Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation problem. It also…
We return to Takagi's variational principle, generalized after forty years to two complex variables by Pfister. Both isolating some extremal rational functions associated to a bounded holomorphic function in the unit disk, respectively the…
A toral algebraic set $A$ is an algebraic set in $\C^n$ whose intersection with $\T^n$ is sufficiently large to determine the holomorphic functions on $A$. We develop the theory of these sets, and give a number of applications to function…
The well-known Hermite-Biehler theorem claims that a univariate monic polynomial s of degree k has all roots in the open upper half-plane if and only if s=p+iq where p and q are real polynomials of degree k and k-1 resp. with all real,…
The vector-matrix Riemann boundary value problem for the unit disk with piecewise constant matrix is constructively solved by a method of functional equations. By functional equations we mean iterative functional equations with shifts…
Motivated by recent work in the mathematics and engineering literature, we study integrability and non-tangential regularity on the two-torus for rational functions that are holomorphic on the bidisk. One way to study such rational…
We give a characterization for the existence of a holomorphic interpolant on the unit polydisc $\mathbb{D}^n,$ $n\geq 2,$ for prescribed three-point Pick--Nevanlinna data. One of the key steps is a characterization for the existence of an…
In this article, we establish a connection between Pick bodies and invariant functions. We demonstrate that an invariant function can be associated with any Pick body, which determines the solvability of a given Pick interpolation problem…
Bounded holomorphic interpolation problems associated to finitely many data have, in general, distinct solutions. Uniqueness arises only in some convex extreme configurations. Rational inner functions in a polydisk are the best understood…
In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem for Laplace's equation in an open disk. The uniqueness of solutions is ensured by the well-known weak maximum principle. We introduce a novel approach to demonstrate the existence of a solution…
A proof for the maximum modulus principle (in the unit disc) is presented. This proof is unusual in that it is based on linear algebra.
A pattern of interpolation nodes on the disk is studied, for which the interpolation problem is theoretically unisolvent, and which renders a minimal numerical condition for the collocation matrix when the standard basis of Zernike…
A popular approach in combinatorial optimization is to model problems as integer linear programs. Ideally, the relaxed linear program would have only integer solutions, which happens for instance when the constraint matrix is totally…
We solve a three point Nevanlinna-Pick problem in the Euclidean ball. In particular, we determine a class of rational functions that interpolate this problem.
For a rational function of several variables with nonnegative imaginary part on the upper poly-half-plane, the matrix representations are obtained.
