The Bergman kernel of the Fock–Bargmann–Hartogs domain and the polylogarithm function

Abstract We consider the Fock–Bargmann–Hartogs domain D n,m which is defined by the inequality where (z, ζ) ∈ ℂ n × ℂ m and μ > 0. We give an explicit formula for the Bergman kernel of the domain in terms of the polylogarithm functions. Moreover, using the interlacing property, we describe how the existence of zeros of the Bergman kernel depends on the integers m and n.
