Complete Nevanlinna-Pick kernels

Abstract

We give a new treatment of Quiggin's and McCullough's characterization of complete Nevanlinna-Pick kernels. We show that a kernel has the matrix-valued Nevanlinna-Pick property if and only if it has the vector-valued Nevanlinna-Pick property. We give a representation of all complete Nevanlinna-Pick kernels, and show that they are all restrictions of a universal complete Nevanlinna-Pick kernel.
