Approximation in the mean by bounded analytic functions (Q1920987)

For \(1<p<\infty\) and a bounded open subset \(G\) in \(\mathbb{C}\) let \(L^p_a(G)\) denote the Bergman space of analytic functions on \(G\). Let \(H^\infty(G)\) be the Banach algebra of bounded analytic functions on \(G\). If \(\lambda\in\partial G\), then \(M_\lambda\) denotes the set of homomorphisms \(\varphi\) of \(H^\infty(G)\) such that \(\varphi(z)=\lambda\). Let \(NP(G)\) be the subset of \(\partial G\) consisting of all points \(\lambda\) so that \(M_\lambda\) is not a peak set for \(H^\infty(G)\). The following theorem is shown: If the Bessel capacity of the set \(NP(G)\) vanishes, then \(H^\infty(G)\) is dense in \(L^p_a(G)\).
