I Consider for simplicity condition 1.I Lemma [Momm, 1990]: Let g be a holomorphic function in B(0,Kmax) such

that g(0) = 1. There exists ω ∈ A s.t. |g(ω)| ≥ C(A, sup |g|) > 0.

I Apply Lemma with gx(ω) = uω(x)∏Nl=1

(λl−ω2)λl

=⇒ |gx(ωx)| ≥ C.I Finally, ‖∂ωuω‖C(Ω) ≤ D gives a set K(n) for n big enough.
