A note on pluripolar extensions of univalent functions.
For sequences of rational functions, analytic in some domain, a theorem of Montel’s type is proved. As an application, sequences of rational functions of the best -approximation with an unbounded number of finite poles are considered.
For functions that are separately solutions of an elliptic homogeneous PDE with constant coefficients, we prove an analogue of Siciak's theorem for separately holomorphic functions.
The questions considered in this paper arose from the study [KS] of I. Fredholm's (insufficient) proof that the gap series Σ0∞ an ζn2 (where 0 < |a| < 1) is nowhere continuable across {|ζ| = 1}. The interest of Fredholm's method ([F],[ML]) is not so much its efficacy in proving gap theorems (indeed, much more general results can be got by other means, cf. the Fabry gap theorem in [Di]) as in the connection it made between certain special gap series and partial differential equations...
