Aleksandrov operators as smoothing operators [PDF]
Let \(b\) be a holomorphic map from the open disc \(\mathbb{D}\) into itself. Then for each \(\alpha \in \mathbb{T}\) there exists a unique positive measure \(\tau_{\alpha}\) such that \[ \frac{1 - |b (z) |^2}{|\alpha - b (z) |^2} = \int_{\mathbb{T}} P_z (\xi) d \tau_{\alpha} (\xi) \] holds where \(P\) denotes the Poisson kernel.
