Abstract
If F ⊂ ℝ is a closed set such that the space of all Whitney jets on F admits an extension operator then there exists such an extension operator whose values are holomorphic in ℂF if and only if ∂F is compact. In the case F is a compact set, there is even an extension operatorfor which the extensions are holomorphic in (ℂ ∪ {∞})F.
