✦ Synopsis


In view of a multiple Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation problem, we study the rank of generalized Schwarz-Pick-Potapov block matrices of matrix-valued Carathéodory functions. Those matrices are determined by the values of a Carathéodory function and the values of its derivatives up to a certain order. We derive statements on rank invariance of such generalized Schwarz-Pick-Potapov block matrices. These results are applied to describe the case of exactly one solution for the finite multiple Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation problem and to discuss matrix-valued Carathéodory functions with the highest degree of degeneracy.
