Uniform approximation of holomorphic functions on bounded Hartogs domains in \({\mathbb{C}}^ 2\) (Q1068259)

The authors establish that if \(\Omega \subset {\mathbb{C}}^ 2\) is a bounded pseudoconvex Hartogs domain with \(C^ 1\) boundary, then the algebra \(A^{\infty}(\Omega)\) of smooth functions on \({\bar \Omega}\), which are holomorphic in \(\Omega\) is uniformly dense in the algebra A(\(\Omega)\) of continuous functions on \({\bar \Omega}\), which are holomorphic in \(\Omega\). They show by an example that, in the absence of pseudoconvexity, smoothness of the boundary is not enough to guarantee approximation results.
