Envelopes of holomorphy and extension of functions of bounded type

We study the extension of holomorphic functions of bounded type defined on an open subset of a Banach space to larger domains. For this, we first characterize the envelope of holomorphy of a Riemann domain over a Banach space, with respect to the algebra of bounded type holomorphic functions, in ter...

Description
Summary:We study the extension of holomorphic functions of bounded type defined on an open subset of a Banach space to larger domains. For this, we first characterize the envelope of holomorphy of a Riemann domain over a Banach space, with respect to the algebra of bounded type holomorphic functions, in terms of the spectrum of the algebra. We then give a simple description of the envelopes of balanced open sets and relate the concepts of domain of holomorphy and polynomial convexity. We show that for bounded balanced sets, extensions to the envelope are always of bounded type, and that this does not necessarily hold for unbounded sets, answering a question posed by Hirschowitz in 1972. We also consider extensions to open subsets of the bidual, present some Banach–Stone type results and show some properties of the spectrum when the domain is the unit ball of ℓ p .
