Envelopes of holomorphy for bounded holomorphic functions
Some problems concerning holomorphic continuation of the class of bounded holomorphic functions from bounded domains in Cn that are domains of holomorphy are solved. A bounded domain of holomorphy Ω in C2 with nonschlicht H°°-envelope of holomorphy is constructed and it is shown that there is a poi...

Some problems concerning holomorphic continuation of the class of bounded holomorphic functions from bounded domains in Cn that are domains of holomorphy are solved. A bounded domain of holomorphy Ω in C2 with nonschlicht H°°-envelope of holomorphy is constructed and it is shown that there is a point in D for which Gleason’s Problem for H°°(Ω) cannot be solved. Furthermore a proof of the existence of a bounded domain of holomorphy in C2 for which the volume of the H°°-envelope of holomorphy is infinite is given. The idea of the proof is to put a family of so-called ”Sibony domains” into the unit bidisk by a packing procedure and patch them together by thin neighbourhoods of suitably chosen curves. If H°°(Ω) is the Banach algebra of bounded holomorphic functions on a bounded domain Ω in Cn and if p is a point in Ω, then the following problem is known as Gleason’s Problem for Hoo(Ω) : Is the maximal ideal in H°°(Ω) consisting of functions vanishing at p generated by (z1 -p1) , ... , (zn - pn) ? A sufficient condition for solving Gleason’s Problem for 77°° (Ω) for all points in Ω is given. In particular, this condition is fulfilled by a convex domain Ω with Lip1+e boundary (0 < e < 1) and thus generalizes a theorem of S.L.Leibenson.
