Abstract
Let H be a Hilbert space of analytic functions on the open unit disc D such that the operator M. of multiplication with the identity function. defines a contraction operator. In terms of the reproducing kernel for H we will characterize the largest set Delta(H) subset of partial derivative D such that for each f, g is an element of H, g not equal 0 the meromorphic function f/g has nontangential limits a.e. on Delta( H). We will see that the question of whether or not Delta( H) has linear Lebesgue measure 0 is related to questions concerning the invariant subspace structure of M-zeta. We further associate with H a second set Sigma(H) subset of partial derivative D, which is defined in terms of the norm on H. For example, Sigma(H) has the... (More)
