Certain Hilbert spaces of entire functions

1. Introduction. The research reported on in the present note was motivated by the following Proposition (F), due to Ernest Fischer ([5], see also [4] for an earlier version; actually Fischer proved a more general result, but the special case suffices as a point of departure for our discussion) : (F) Let P denote a homogeneous polynomial in si, • • • , z k with complex coefficients. Then every polynomial in Si, • • • , z k has a unique representation QP+R where
