Abstract

In this paper, we study free holomorphic functions on the noncommutative polydomains \(\mathbf{D_f^m}(\mathcal {H})\), which were recently introduced by Popescu (J Funct Anal 265(10):2500–2552, 2013; Adv Math 279:104–158, 2015; Trans Am Math 368:4357–4416, 2016). We obtain some characterizations of free holomorphic functions by noncommutative Berezin transforms and the universal models associated with the abstract noncommutative polydomains \(\mathbf{D_f^m}\). As consequences, we provide noncommutative multivariable analogues of several results from the classical holomorphic function theory such as: Wiener inequality, Weierstrass theorem, Montel theorem, Vitali theorem. Moreover, we also prove that the universal models are essentially unique.
