Abstract

We examine the spectra of the multiplier algebras of the Dirichlet space and of the generalized Dirichlet spaces (spaces between the Hardy space and the Dirichlet space). For the generalized Dirichlet spaces we show that the spectrum contains nontrivial analytic disks. For the Dirichlet space we are able to show that the spectrum contains nontrivial Gleason parts.
