    Let \(X\) be a Stein space and let \(D \subset X\) be an open subset and let \(\overline {\Delta} := \{t \in \mathbb C, |t| \leq 1\}\). The domain \(D\) satisfies \textsl{the disk property} if there is a sequence of holomorphic functions \(f_n : \overline {\Delta} \to X\) covering uniformly to a holomorphic function \(f: \overline {\Delta} \to X \) such that if \(f_n (\overline {\Delta}) \subset D\) and \(f (\partial \overline {\Delta}) \subset D\) then \(f (\overline {\Delta}) \subset D\). The authors have established that there exists a normal Stein space \(X\) of dimension 2 with only one singular point \(x_0\) such that \(X \setminus \{x_0\}\) satisfies the disk property and is simply connected (Theorem 1.) It is the answer of a question of Fornæss and Narasinhan. They also have proved that if \(X\) is a Stein space of dimension 2 and \(D \subset X\) is the union of an increasing sequence of Stein open sets, then \(D\) satisfies the disk property (Theorem 2.)
