Ivrii's conjecture on singly generated invariant subspaces of the Bergman space

About 4 years old · traced to

Let A12A^2_1 be the Bergman space

A12={φ:D→C holomorphic:∬D(1−∣z∣2)∣φ(z)∣2 dx dy<∞}.A^2_1=\left\{\varphi:\mathbb D\to\mathbb C\text{ holomorphic}:\iint_{\mathbb D}(1-|z|^2)|\varphi(z)|^2\,dx\,dy<\infty\right\}.

A closed subspace of A12A^2_1 is singly generated if it is the minimal closed invariant subspace containing one function, where invariance is with respect to multiplication by zz. An inner function is a bounded holomorphic function on the unit disk with unimodular boundary values almost everywhere. Ivrii's conjecture. Any singly generated subspace of A12A^2_1 can be generated by the derivative of an inner function. The inner function is uniquely determined up to postcomposition with a unit disk automorphism. Equivalently,

Inner functions/Aut⁡(D)={singly generated invariant subspaces of A12}.\text{Inner functions}/\operatorname{Aut}(\mathbb D)=\{\text{singly generated invariant subspaces of }A^2_1\}.

This conjecture connects inner functions and invariant-subspace theory in Bergman spaces, extending the correspondence between derivatives of maximal Blaschke products and zero-based invariant subspaces. The source presents it as an open conjecture motivated by asymptotic spectral synthesis and Shimorin's approximation theorem.
