Characterizations of generalized poles by pole cancellation functions of higher order (1309.3677v2)

Abstract: In this paper the analytic characterization of generalized poles of operator valued generalized Nevanlinna functions (including the length of Jordan chains of the representing relation) is completed. In particular, given a Jordan chain of length $\ell$, we show that there exists a pole cancellation function of order at least $\ell$, and, moreover, this function is of surprisingly simple form.
