This highly original work, written by the creators of the multivariable theory of automorphisms, is a rich tapestry of themes and concepts, and a comprehensive treatment of an important area of mathematics. From Poincare's work on biholomorphic inequivalence in 1906, it became clear that the structures of the automorphism groups of domains in multi-dimensional complex space are more complex, and more interesting, than those in the complex plane. The authors build on this theme and trace the evolution of the classical theory to the modern theory, which is today a cornerstone of geometric...

These notes are based on lectures given at the University of Virginia over the past twenty years. They may be viewed as a course in function theory for nonspecialists. Chapters 1-6 give the function-theoretic background to Hardy Classes and Operator Theory, Oxford Mathematical Monographs, Oxford University Press, New York, 1985. These chapters were written first, and they were origi- nally intended to be a part of that book. Half-plane function theory continues to be useful for applications and is a focal point in our account (Chapters 5 and 6). The theory of Hardy and Nevanlinna classes is...

Der heutige Hochschulunterricht fur Mathematiker grundet meist auf Abstraktion und fuhrt vom Allgemeinen zum Speziellen. Die Methode hat Vorteile, sie starkt das Denkvermogen und meidet lastige Wiederholungen. Doch sie "stellt den Pflug vor die Ochsen," weil Abstraktion auf Spezialfalle baut, die dem Lernenden oft fremd sind. So bleibt der Erfolg den Glucklichen vorbehalten, die den Weg von der Abstraktion zu den Beispielen finden. Dieses Lehrbuch fuhrt von zwei Spezialfallen zur Allgemeinheit und grundet nicht auf Abstraktion. Die Beweise der abstrakten Algebra werden zuerst am konkreten...
