Rational dilation problems associated with constrained algebras

Functional Analysis 2018-06-29 v3 Complex Variables

Abstract

It is shown that rational dilation fails on broad collection of distinguished varieties associated to constrained subalgebras of the disk algebra of the form C + B A(D), where B is a finite Blaschke product with two or more zeros. This is accomplished in part by finding a minimal set of test functions. In addition, an Agler-Pick interpolation theorem is given and it is proved that there exist Kaijser-Varopoulos style examples of non-contractive unital representations where the generators are contractions.
