Approximation in the closed unit ball

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In this expository article, we present a number of classic theorems that serve to identify the closure in the sup-norm of various sets of Blaschke products, inner functions and their quotients, as well as the closure of the convex hulls of these sets. The results presented include theorems of Carath'eodory, Fisher, Helson-Sarason, Frostman, Adamjan-Arov-Krein, Douglas-Rudin and Marshall. As an application of some of these ideas, we obtain a simple proof of the Berger-Stampfli spectral mapping theorem for the numerical range of an operator.
