A factorization method for products of holomorphic matrix functions

详细

A class of matrix functions defined on a contour which bounds a finitely connected domain in the complex plane is considered. It is assumed that each matrix function in this class can be explicitly represented as a product of two matrix functions holomorphic in the outer and the inner part of the contour, respectively. The problem of factoring matrix functions in the class under consideration is studied. A constructive method reducing the factorization problem to finitely many explicitly written systems of linear algebraic equations is proposed. In particular, explicit formulas for partial indices are obtained.
