Abstract
A curvature inequality is established for contractive commuting tuples of operators in the Cowen–Douglas class of rank defined on some bounded domain in . Properties of the extremal operators (that is, the operators which achieve equality) are investigated. Specifically, a substantial part of a well-known question due to R. G. Douglas involving these extremal operators, in the case of the unit disc, is answered.
