Isometries of the disk algebra

John McDonald

Vol. 58 (1975), No. 1, 143–154
Abstract

In this paper we are concerned with the problem, posed by R. R. Phelps, of describing the into isometries of the disk algebra. We show that, in a certain sense, every isometry can be approximated by convex combinations of isometries of the form f k(f ϕ). We also give some sufficient conditions for an isometry to be of the form f k(f ϕ).
