Blaschke Product - Definition

Definition

A sequence of points inside the unit disk is said to satisfy the Blaschke condition when

Given a sequence obeying the Blaschke condition, the Blaschke product is defined as

with factors

provided a ≠ 0. Here a* is the complex conjugate of a. When a = 0 take B(0,z) = z.

The Blaschke product B(z) defines a function analytic in the open unit disc, and zero exactly at the an (with multiplicity counted): furthermore it is in the Hardy class .

The sequence of an satisfying the convergence criterion above is sometimes called a Blaschke sequence.

Famous quotes containing the word definition:

    “I’m beginning to think that the proper definition of “Man” is “an animal that writes letters.””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “One definition of man is “an intelligence served by organs.””
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It is very hard to give a just definition of love. The most we can say of it is this: that in the soul, it is a desire to rule; in the spirit, it is a sympathy; and in the body, it is but a hidden and subtle desire to possess—after many mysteries—what one loves.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
