AbstractLet AB be the algebra of all bounded continuous functions on the closed unit ball B of c0, analytic on the open unit ball, with sup norm, and let AU be the sub-algebra of AB of those functions which are uniformly continuous on B. Call a set S ⊂ B a boundary of AB (AU) iffor every f ∈ AB (f ∈AU, respectively). In the paper we study the boundaries of AB and AU. We give a complete description of the boundaries of AU and present some necessary and some sufficient conditions for a set to be a boundary of AB. We also give some examples of boundaries.

AbstractLet A be the complex Banach algebra of all bounded continuous complex-valued functions on the closed unit ball of a complex Banach space X, analytic on the open unit ball, with sup norm. For a class of spaces X which contains all infinite dimensional complex reflexive spaces we prove the existence of non-compact peak interpolation sets for A. We prove some related interpolation theorems for vector-valued functions and present some applications to the ranges of analytic maps between Banach spaces. We also show that in general peak interpolation sets for A do not exist.

AbstractLet 𝒳 be a complex Banach space, with open unit ball B. We consider the algebra of analytic functions on B that are weakly continuous and that are uniformly continuous with respect to the norm. We show these are precisely the analytic functions on B that extend to be weak-star continuous on the closed unit ball of 𝒳**. If 𝒳* has the approximation property, then any such function is approximable uniformly on B by finite polynomials in elements of 𝒳*. On the other hand, there exist Banach spaces for which these finite-type polynomials fail to approximate. We consider also the approximation of entire functions by finite-type polynomials. Assuming 𝒳* has the approximation property, we show that entire functions are approximable uniformly on bounded sets if and only if the spectrum of the algebra of entire functions coincides (as a point set) with 𝒳**.

1.1. We will denote by B the open unit ball in Cn, and we will denote by H(B) the class of all holomorphic functions on B. LetThus N(B) is convex (and compact in the compact open topology). We think that the structure of N(B) is of interest and importance. Thus we proved in [1] that if(1.1)if(1.2)and if n≧ 2, then g is an extreme point of N(B). We will denote by E(B) the class of all extreme points of N(B). If n = 1 and if (1.2) holds, then as is well known g ∈ E(B) if and only if(1.3)

AbstractIt is proved that there exists a universal good inner function in the open unit polydisc Un, that is its non Euclidean translates are dense in the closed unit ball of H∞ (Un) and that there exists a universal function in the open unit ball Bn of Cn. These generalize Heins' result on universal Blaschke products.1980 Mathematics subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc.): primary 32 A 10.

Let G be a topological semigroup, i.e. G is a semigroup with a Hausdorff topology such that the map (a, b) → a.b from G × G into G is continuous when G × G has the product topology. Let C(G) denote the space of complex-valued bounded continuous functions on G with the supremum norm. Let LUC (G) denote the space of bounded left uniformly continuous complex-valued functions on G i.e. all f ε C(G) such that the map a → laf of G into C(G) is continuous when C(G) has a norm topology, where (laf )(x) = f (ax) (a, x ε G). Then LUC (G) is a closed subalgebra of C(G) invariant under translations. Furthermore, if m ε LUC (G)*, f ε LUC (G), then the functionis also in LUC (G). Hence we may define a productfor n, m ε LUC(G)*. LUC (G)* with this product is a Banach algebra. Furthermore, ʘ is precisely the restriction of the Arens product defined on the second conjugate algebra l∞(G)* = l1(G)** to LUC (G)*. We refer the reader to [1] and [10] for more details.

The set of asymptotic values of a continuous function on the open unit disc in ℝ2 forms an analytic set, in the sense of being a continuous image of a Polish space (complete, separable metric space). This was proved in [9] by J. E. McMillan, who had earlier given versions of this result for holomorphic and meromorphic functions. We extend his method to the case of a function on the open unit ball of ℝn which is continuous merely in the fine topology, the coarsest topology making all subharmonic functions continuous. In particular, we use a version of McMillan's ingenious metric on a certain space of equivalence classes of asymptotic paths. McMillan also proved in [9] that the set of point asymptotic values of a continuous function in the unit disc forms an analytic set. We use a modification of the McMillan metric to extend this result to fine continuous functions in the unit ball and deduce that the set of boundary points of the unit ball at which the function has an asymptotic value forms an analytic set.

It is shown that if V is a closed submanifold of the open unit ball of ℂ2 biholomorphically equivalent to a disc, then the area of V ∩ r can grow arbitrarily rapidly as r ↗ 1. It is also shown that if V is a closed submanifold of ℂ2 biholomorphically equivalent to a disc, then the area of V ∩ r can grow arbitrarily rapidly as r ↗ ∞.

The boundary value problemis studied with a view to obtaining the existence of positive solutions in C1([0, 1])∩C2((0, 1)). The function f is assumed to be singular in the second variable, with the singularity modeled after the special case f(x, y) = a(x)y−p, p>0.This boundary value problem arises in the search of positive radially symmetric solutions towhere Ω is the open unit ball in ℝN, centered at the origin, Γ is its boundary and |x| is the Euclidean norm of x.

SynopsisWe consider a system of functional differential equationswhere G: R × B → Rn is T periodic in t and B is a certain phase space of continuous functions that map (−∞, 0[ into Rn. The concepts of B-uniform boundedness and B-uniform ultimate boundedness are introduced, and sufficient conditions are given for the existence of a T-periodic solution to (1.1). Several examples are given to illustrate the main theorem.
