Claims

C1strongest claim

Extremal functions for the nth coefficient in the Krzyż conjecture are atomic singular inner functions with at most n atoms. This paper gives a lower bound on the number of atoms N of the form N≥cn, marking progress toward proving the expected N=n.

C2weakest assumption

The assumption, stated as given in the abstract, that extremal functions are atomic singular inner functions; if this classification fails for some n, the lower bound and equivalent conditions derived from it would not apply.

C3one line summary

Extremal functions in the Krzyż conjecture have at least cn atoms, with new variational formulas and equivalent conditions for the conjecture.
