Abstract

A function f holomorphic in the unit disk \(\mathbb{D}\) is called strongly annular if there exists a sequence of concentric circles in \(\mathbb{D}\) expanding out to the unit circle such that f goes to infinity as |z| goes to 1 through these circles. The residuality of the family of strongly annular functions in the space of holomorphic functions on \(\mathbb{D}\) is well known, and it is extended here to certain classes of functions. This important topological property is enriched in this paper by studying algebraic-topological properties of the mentioned family, in the modern setting of lineability. Namely, we prove that although this family is clearly nonlinear, it contains, except for the zero function, large vector subspaces as well as infinitely generated algebras. Similar results are obtained for strongly annular functions on the whole complex plane and for weighted Bergman spaces.
