We show that, for many holomorphic function spaces on the unit disk, a continuous endomorphism that sends inner functions to inner functions is necessarily a weighted composition operator.

In previous work, categories of algebras of endofunctors were shown to be enriched in categories of coalgebras of the same endofunctor, and the extra structure of that enrichment was used to define a generalization of inductive data types.…

We combine the theory of inductive data types with the theory of universal measurings. By doing so, we find that many categories of algebras of endofunctors are actually enriched in the corresponding category of coalgebras of the same…
