Abstract

We study a Nevanlinna-Pick type interpolation problem for matrix-valued generalized Carathéodory functions, where the values of the function and the values of its derivatives up to a certain order are prescribed at finitely many points of the open unit disk. Under the assumption that the generalized Schwarz-Pick-Potapov block matrix, which is associated to the given data, is non-singular we establish a correspondence between the set of solutions of the problem and the set of minimal unitary extensions of a certain isometry in a Pontryagin space, which is one-to-one modulo unitary equivalence.
