PROPER RATIONAL MAP IN THE PLANE

In [6], the author studied the property of the Szeg kernel and had a result that if $\Omega$ is a smoothly bounded domain in C and the Szeg kernel associated with $\Omega$ is rational, then any proper holomorphic map from $\Omega$ to the unit disc U is rational. It leads to the study of the proper rational map of $\Omega$ to U. In this note, first we simplify the proof of the above result and prove an existence theorem of a proper rational map. Before we proceed to state our result, we must recall some preliminary facts.(omitted)
