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…
The Bessmertny\u{\i} class consists of rational matrix-valued functions of $d$ complex variables representable as the Schur complement of a block of a linear pencil $A(z)=z_1A_1+\cdots+z_dA_d$ whose coefficients $A_k$ are positive…
Every two variable rational inner function on the bidisk has a special representation called a transfer function realization. It is well known and related to important ideas in operator theory that this does not extend to three or more…
In this paper, we give several characterizations of Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions in terms of a specific type of positive semi-definite functions called Poisson-type functions. This allows us to propose a multidimensional analogue of the…
Matrix valued inner functions on the bidisk have a number of natural subspaces of the Hardy space on the torus associated to them. We study their relationship to Agler decompositions, regularity up to the boundary, and restriction maps into…
We use shift-invariant subspaces of the Hardy space on the bidisk to provide an elementary proof of the Agler Decomposition Theorem. We observe that these shift-invariant subspaces are specific cases of Hilbert spaces that can be defined…
We discuss transfer-function realization for multivariable holomorphic functions mapping the unit polydisk or the right polyhalfplane into the operator analogue of either the unit disk or the right halfplane (Schur/Herglotz functions over…
A Taylor variety consists of all fixed order Taylor polynomials of rational functions, where the number of variables and degrees of numerators and denominators are fixed. In one variable, Taylor varieties are given by rank constraints on…
A seminal result of Agler characterizes the so-called Schur-Agler class of functions on the polydisk in terms of a unitary colligation transfer function representation. We generalize this to the unit ball of the algebra of multipliers for a…
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…
In the classical Hardy space theory of square-summable Taylor series in the complex unit disk there is a circle of ideas connecting Szeg\"o's theorem, factorization of positive semi-definite Toeplitz operators, non-extreme points of the…
Using results from theory of operators on a Hilbert space, we prove approximation results for matrix-valued holomorphic functions on the unit disc and the unit bidisc. The essential tools are the theory of unitary dilation of a contraction…
We study representations of inner functions on the bidisc from a fractional linear transformation point of view, and provide sufficient conditions, in terms of colligation matrices, for the existence of two-variable inner functions. Here…
Inner functions are the backbone of holomorphic function theory. This paper studies the inner functions on quotient domains of the open unit polydisc, $\bD^d$, arising from the group action of finite pseudo-reflection groups. Such quotient…
A theorem of Dorronsoro from the 1980s quantifies the fact that real-valued Sobolev functions on Euclidean spaces can be approximated by affine functions almost everywhere, and at all sufficiently small scales. We prove a variant of…
We present two algorithms for constructing orthonormal bases of rational function vectors with respect to a discrete inner product, and discuss how to use them for a rational approximation problem. Building on the pencil-based formulation…
Let $K\subset\mathbb R^d$ be a compact subset equipped with a $\delta$-Ahlfors regular measure $\mu$. For any $\tau>1/d$ and any ``inhomogeneous'' vector $\boldsymbol{\theta}\in\mathbb R^d$, let $W_d(\psi_\tau,\boldsymbol{\theta})$ denote…
Various methods in statistical learning build on kernels considered in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. In applications, the kernel is often selected based on characteristics of the problem and the data. This kernel is then employed to…
We introduce Nevanlinna classes of holomorphic functions associated to a closed set on the boundary of the unit disc in the complex plane and we get Blaschke type theorems relative to these classes by use of several complex variables…
We describe a generalization of the notion of a Hilbert space model of a function $\varphi$ in the Schur-Agler class of the polydisc. This generalization is well adapted to the investigation of boundary behavior of $\varphi$ at a mild…
