Density of Polynomials in the L^2 Space on the Real and the Imaginary Axes and in a Sobolev Space

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 41A10, 30E10, 41A65.

In this paper we consider an L^2 type space of scalar functions L^2 M, A (R u iR) which can be, in particular, the usual L^2 space of scalar functions on R u iR. We find conditions for density of polynomials in this space using a connection with the L^2 space of square-integrable matrix-valued functions on R with respect to a non-negative Hermitian matrix measure. The completness of L^2 M, A (R u iR ) is also established.
