A class is studied of complex valued functions defined on the unit disk (with a possible exception of a discrete set) with the property that all their Pick matrices have not more than a prescribed number of negative eigenvalues. Functions…

In one complex variable it is well known that if we consider the family of all holomorphic functions on the unit disc that fix the origin and with first derivative equal to 1 at the origin, then there exists a constant $\rho$, independent…

In this paper we examine functions in the disc algebra $\mathcal{A}(D)$ and the polydisc algebra $\mathcal{A}(D^I)$, where $I$ is a finite or countably infinite set. We prove that, generically, for every $f \in \mathcal{A}(D)$ the…

A holomorphic function $f$ on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ belongs to the class $\mathcal{U}_A(\mathbb{D})$ of Abel universal functions if the family $\{f_r: 0\leq r<1\}$ of its dilates $f_r(z):=f(rz)$ is dense in the space of continuous…

We show that every strictly pseudoconvex domain $\Omega$ with smooth boundary in a complex manifold $\mathcal{M}$ admits a global defining function, i.e., a smooth plurisubharmonic function $\varphi \colon U \to \mathbb R$ defined on an…

We show that, if $f$ is an outer function and $a\in[0,1)$, then the set of functions $\{\log |(f\circ\psi)^*|: \psi:\mathcal{D}\to\mathcal{D} \text{ holomorphic}, |\psi(0)|\le a\}$ is uniformly integrable on the unit circle. As an…

We consider the space $U(\mathbb T)$ of all continuous functions on the circle $\mathbb T$ with uniformly convergent Fourier series. We show that if $\varphi: \mathbb T\rightarrow\mathbb T$ is a continuous piecewise linear but not linear…

The goal of this note is to generalize Thurston's Topological Characterization of Rational Functions to the setting when both the covering degree and the set of marked points are infinite. A relevant class of branched coverings are…

Let $D$ be the open unit disc in the complex plane. We denote by $\mathbb{C}$ the set of complex numbers and consider any compact set $K$ which is disjoint from $D$ and which also has connected complement. Let $A(K)$ denote all the…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^n$ be a strictly pseudoconvex Runge domain with $C^2$-smooth defining function, $l\in\mathbb{N},$ $p\in(1,\infty).$ We prove that the holomorphic function $f$ has derivatives of order $l$ in $H^p(\Omega)$ if and…

Let $\theta$ be an inner function on the unit disk, and let $K^p_\theta:=H^p\cap\theta\overline{H^p_0}$ be the associated star-invariant subspace of the Hardy space $H^p$, with $p\ge1$. While a nontrivial function $f\in K^p_\theta$ is never…

Let ${\mathcal A}$ be the class of functions analytic in the unit disk ${\mathbb D} := \{ z\in {\mathbb C}:\, |z| < 1 \}$ and normalized such that $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots$. In this paper we study the class $\mathcal{U}(\lambda)$,…

The Invariant Subspace Problem (ISP) for Hilbert spaces asks if every bounded linear operator has a non-trivial closed invariant subspace. Due to the existence of universal operators (in the sense of Rota), the ISP may be solved by…
