Abstract: A characteristic function is a special operator-valued analytic function defined on the open unit ball of mathbbCn associated with an n-tuple of commuting row contraction on some Hilbert space. In this paper, we continue our study of the representations of n-tuples of commuting row contractions on Hilbert spaces, which have polynomial characteristic functions. Gleason's problem plays an important role in the representations of row contractions. We further complement the representations of our row contractions by proving theorems concerning factorizations of characteristic functions. We also emphasize the importance and the role of the noncommutative operator theory and noncommutative varieties to the classification problem of polynomial characteristic functions.
