Let $\mathcal{D}$ be the Dirichlet space, namely the space of holomorphic functions on the unit disk whose derivative is square-integrable. We give a new sufficient condition, not far from the known necessary condition, for a function$f$∈ $\mathcal{D}$ to be$cyclic$, i.e. for {$pf$:$p$is a polynomial} to be dense in $\mathcal{D}$ .

We find a real analytic Levi-flat hypersurface in$C$^{2}containing a bounded contractible domain which is a determining set for pluriharmonic functions.

We study the problem of density of polynomials in the de Branges spaces ℋ($E$) of entire functions and obtain conditions (in terms of the distribution of the zeros of the generating function$E$) ensuring that the polynomials belong to the space ℋ($E$) or are dense in this space. We discuss the relation of these results with the recent paper of V. P. Havin and J. Mashreghi on majorants for the shift-coinvariant subspaces. Also, it is shown that the density of polynomials implies the hypercyclicity of translation operators in ℋ($E$).

In this paper we consider the following two-phase obstacle-problem-like equation in the unit half-ball $$\Delta u = \lambda_{+\chi_{\{ u>0 \}}} - \lambda_{-\chi_{\{ u<0 \}}},\quad\lambda_{\pm}>0. $$ We prove that the free boundary touches the fixed boundary (uniformly) tangentially if the boundary data$f$and its first and second derivatives vanish at the touch-point.
