Functions in the space \(R^ 2(E)\) at boundary points of the interior (Q794809)

Let X be a compact subset of the complex plane. We denote by \(R_ 0(X)\) the algebra consisting of the restrictions to X of rational functions with poles off X. Let \(R^ 2(X)\) be the closure of \(R_ 0(X)\) in \(L^ 2(X,dm),\) where m is 2-dimensional Lebesgue measure. Let \(x\in \partial X\) be a bounded point evaluation for \(R^ 2(X)\). Suppose there is a \(c>0\) such that x is a limit point of the set \(S=\{y| \quad y\in Int X,\quad Dist(y,\partial X)\geq c| y-x| \}.\) For those \(y\in S\) sufficiently near x the author proves statements about \(| f(y)- f(x)|\) for all \(f\in R(X)\). This extends his previous result when x is the vertex of a sector contained in Int X [the author, ibid. 2, 415- 426 (1979; Zbl 0436.46040)].
