Part of the book series: Operator Theory: Advances and Applications ((OT,volume 176))

Abstract

In this paper we construct a class of homogeneous Hilbert modules over the disc algebra \( \mathcal{A}(\mathbb{D}) \) as quotients of certain natural modules over the function algebra \( \mathcal{A}(\mathbb{D}^2 ) \). These quotient modules are described using the jet construction for Hilbert modules. We show that the quotient modules obtained this way, belong to the class Bk(\( \mathbb{D} \)) and that they are mutually inequivalent, irreducible and homogeneous.

The research of the first author was supported in part by a grant from the DST-NSF Science and Technology Cooperation Programme. The second author was supported by the Indian Statistical Institute.
