The role of Fourier modes in extension theorems of Hartogs-Chirka type (Q1772009): Difference between revisions

The authors generalize Chirka's theorem on the extension of functions holomorphic in a neighbourhood of \(\Gamma(F)\cup(\partial D\times D)\) -- where \(D\) is the open unit disc and \(\Gamma(F)\) is the graph of a continuous \(D\)-valued function \(F\) -- to the bidisc. They extend holomorphic functions by applying the Kontinuitätssatz to certain continuous families of analytic annuli, which is a procedure suited to configurations not covered by Chirka's theorem.
