Algebras associated with Blaschke products of type {\it G}

Abstract: Let

O m e g a

and

O m e g a_{f i n}

be the sets of all interpolating Blaschke products of type

G

and of finite type

G

, respectively. Let

E

and

E_{f i n}

be the Douglas algebras generated by

H^{i} n f t y

together with the complex conjugates of elements of

O m e g a

and

O m e g a_{f i n}

, respectively. We show that the set of all invertible inner functions in

E

is the set of all finite products of elements of

O m e g a

, which is also the closure of

O m e g a

among the Blaschke products. Consequently, finite convex combinations of finite products of elements of

O m e g a

are dense in the closed unit ball of the subalgebra of

H^{i} n f t y

generated by

O m e g a

. The same results hold when we replace

O m e g a

by

O m e g a_{f i n}

and

E

by

E_{f i n}

.
