On an approach to the interpolation of analytic functions in Hilbert spaces (Q1387402)

Let \(E= \{z_n:n \in \mathbb{N}\}\) be a set of points in \(\{| z| <1\}\) such that \(\sum^\infty_{n=1} (1-| z_n |^2) <\infty\) and let \(B_n\) be the Blaschke product with respect to \(E\setminus \{z_n\}\). The author gives a new proof of the following theorem of Shapiro and Shields: If \(E\) is such that \(\inf_n | B_n (z_n) |>0\), then \(\sum^\infty_{n=1} | f(z_n) |^2 (1-| z_n |^2) <\infty\) for all \(f\in H^2\). The proof is based on interpolation of functions \(f\in H^2\) in the points \(z_1, \dots, z_N\) by rational functions having poles in \(1/ \overline {z_1}, \dots,1/ \overline {z_N}\). Moreover, an extension of this interpolation result to Hilbert spaces with reproducing kernels is presented.
