Boundary behavior in Hilbert spaces of vector-valued analytic functions

Abstract

In this paper we study the boundary behavior of functions in Hilbert spaces of vector-valued analytic functions on the unit disc D . More specifically, we give operator-theoretic conditions on M z , where M z denotes the operator of multiplication by the identity function on D , that imply that all functions in the space have non-tangential limits a.e., at least on some subset of the boundary. The main part of the article concerns the extension of a theorem by Aleman, Richter and Sundberg in [A. Aleman, S. Richter, C. Sundberg, Analytic contractions and non-tangential limits, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 359 (2007)] to the case of vector-valued functions.
