DefinitionMembership in \(H^\infty\) of the unit disc#✓fully proved

A complex-valued function \(f\) on the open unit disc \(\mathbb{D}\) belongs to \(H^\infty\) when there is a function \(F : \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}\) that is complex differentiable on \(\mathbb{D}\) and satisfies \(f(z) = F(z)\) for every \(z \in \mathbb{D}\), and there is a real number \(C \ge 0\) with \(|f(z)| \le C\) for every \(z \in \mathbb{D}\).

DefinitionThe ring \(H^\infty\) as a subring of functions on the disc#✓fully proved

\(H^\infty\) is the subring of the ring of all complex-valued functions on the open unit disc \(\mathbb{D}\), under pointwise addition and multiplication, consisting of the functions that belong to \(H^\infty\): those that agree on \(\mathbb{D}\) with a function \(\mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}\) complex differentiable on \(\mathbb{D}\) and are bounded on \(\mathbb{D}\).

DefinitionRubel's problem on intersections of finitely generated ideals in \(H^\infty\)#✓fully proved

The statement that for any two finitely generated ideals \(I\) and \(J\) of the commutative ring \(H^\infty\) of bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit disc, the intersection \(I \cap J\) is finitely generated.

Rubel asked whether this statement is true.

TheoremMcVoy–Rubel theorem on finitely generated ideals of \(H^\infty\)#●ready to prove

For any two finitely generated ideals \(I\) and \(J\) of the commutative ring \(H^\infty\) of bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit disc, the intersection \(I \cap J\) is finitely generated. This answers Rubel's Problem 5.24 positively.

Resolved by McVoy and Rubel (J. Funct. Anal. 21 (1976) 76-87), who proved that \(H^\infty\) of the unit disc is a coherent ring. Restated in Mortini, arXiv:1606.05568, and Hayman-Lingham Update 5.24.
