Free holomorphic functions on the unit ball of \(B(\mathbb H)^n\) (Q860802)

The aim of the paper under review is to develop a theory of holomorphic functions in several noncommuting free variables and to apply this theory to the study of tuples of Hilbert space bounded operators. A free analytic functional calculus is introduced and noncommutative Cauchy and Poisson transform, as well as Hausdorff derivations and von Neumann type inequalities are studied in this framework. In fact, several classical results, as for instance the Weierstrass and Montel theorems as well as the concept of a Hardy spaces, have free analogues in this noncommutative setting.
