Homeomorphic Analytic Maps into the Maximal Ideal Space of H∞
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Abstract
Let $m$ be a point of the maximal ideal space of ${{H}^{\infty }}$ with nontrivial Gleason part $P\left( m \right)$. If ${{L}_{m}}\,:\,\text{D}\,\to \,\text{P(m)}$ is the Hoffman map, we show that ${{H}^{\infty }}\,\circ \,{{L}_{m}}$ is a closed subalgebra of ${{H}^{\infty }}$. We characterize the points $m$ for which ${{L}_{m}}$ is a homeomorphism in terms of interpolating sequences, and we show that in this case ${{H}^{\infty }}\,\circ \,{{L}_{m}}$ coincides with ${{H}^{\infty }}$. Also, if ${{I}_{m}}$ is the ideal of functions in ${{H}^{\infty }}$ that identically vanish on $P\left( m \right)$, we estimate the distance of any $f\,\in \,{{H}^{\infty }}\,\text{to}\,{{I}_{m}}$.
