Inner-outer factorization of J-contractive-valued functions

From MaRDI portal





The inner-outer factorization means a representation of an analytic function \(f(z)\) on the unit disk in the form \(f(z)=f_i(z)f_e(z)\), where the boundary values for the inner function \(f_i(z)\) are unitary on the unit circle and the outer function \(f_e(z)\) has no inner divisors. This is a well-studied problem for scalar functions and contractive-valued analytic functions. The case of J-contractive-valued functions was studied in \textit{P. M. Yuditskij} [J. Sov. Math. 48, No. 5, 607-610 (1990); translation from Teor. Funkts., Funkts. Anal. Prilozh. 46, 132-135 (1986; Zbl 0711.30039)] and \textit{A. S. Tikhonov} [Simferopol, 1986, p. 29, Dep. in UkrNIINTI, No. 2580-Uk86 (in Russian)]. In the paper a new proof of the existence and uniqueness of the inner- outer factorization theorem is presented. This approach does not employ the Nagy-Foiaş-Naboko function model [see \textit{B. Sz.-Nagy} and \textit{C. Foiaş}, ``Harmonic analysis of operators on Hilbert space, Amsterdam (1970; Zbl 0201.45003) and \textit{S. N. Naboko}, Tr. Mat. Inst. Steklova 147, 86-114 (Russian) (1980; Zbl 0445.47010); English translation: Proc. Steklov Inst. Math., No. 2 (1981)] nor the Shmul'jan-Pekarev regularity factorization criterion [see \textit{Yu. L. Shmulyan}, Mat. Sb., n. Ser. 57(99), No. 1, 105-136 (1962; Zbl 0199.45203)]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0934.00033].
