We are concerned with $H^1$ functions that have some additional (finitely many) holes in the spectrum, so we fix a finite set $\\mathcal K$ of positive integers and consider the \"punctured\" Hardy space $$H^1_{\\mathcal K}:=\\{f\\in H^1:\\,\\widehat f(k)=0\\,\\,\\,\\text{for all }\\, k\\in\\mathcal K\\}.$$ We then investigate the geometry of the unit ball in $H^1_{\\mathcal K}$. In particular, the extreme points of the ball are identified as those unit-norm functions in $H^1_{\\mathcal K}$ which are not too far from being outer (in the appropriate sense). This extends a theorem of de Leeuw and Rudin that deals with the classical $H^1$ and characterizes its extreme points as outer functions. We also discuss exposed points of the unit ball in $H^1_{\\mathcal K}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-02-11T06:15:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "30H10", "30J10", "42A32", "46A55" ], "keywords": [ "extreme points", "punctured hardy spaces", "outer functions", "unit ball", "unit circle" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
