Invertibility in weak-star closed algebras of analytic functions

Abstract: For

K s u b s e t m a t h b b C

a compact subset and

m u

a positive finite Bore1 measure supported on

K,

let

R^{i} n f t y (K, m u)

be the weak-star closure in

L^{i} n f t y (m u)

of rational functions with poles off

K .

We show that if

R^{i} n f t y (K, m u)

has no non-trivial

L^{i} n f t y

summands and

f i n R^{i} n f t y (K, m u),

then

f

is invertible in

R^{i} n f t y (K, m u)

if and only if Chaumat's map for

K

and

m u

applied to

f

is bounded away from zero on the envelope with respect to

K

and

m u .

The result proves the conjecture

d i a m o n d

posed by J. Dudziak in 1984.
