Abstract:

We study bona fide holomorphic isometric embeddings of the unit disk $\Delta$ into polydisks $\Delta ^p$ ($p\ge 2$) with sheeting number equal to $p$ and the assumption that all component functions of such embeddings are non-constant. We prove that all such embeddings are congruent to the $p$-th root embedding.
