Interpolation problems, extensions of symmetric operators and reproducing kernel spaces II

Abstract

The aim of part I and this paper is to study interpolation problems for pairs of matrix functions of the extended Nevanlinna class using two different approaches and to make explicit the various links between them. In part I we considered the approach via the Krein-Langer theory of extensions of symmetric operators. In this paper we adapt Dym's method to solve interpolation problems by means of the de Branges theory of Hilbert spaces of analytic functions. We also show here how the two solution methods are connected.
