Analytic Schur multipliers

We study in this paper analytic Schur multipliers on C + 2 C₊² and D 2 D² , i.e. Schur multipliers on R 2 R² and T 2 T² that are boundary-value functions of functions analytic in C + 2 C₊² and D 2 D² . Such Schur multipliers are important when studying properties of functions of maximal dissipative operators and contractions under perturbation. We show that if the boundary-value function of a Schur multiplier has certain regularity properties, then it can be represented as an element of the Haagerup tensor product of spaces of analytic functions with similar regularity properties.
