We consider and study Blaschke inductive limit algebras A(b), defined as inductive limits of disc algebras A(D) linked by a sequence b = {Bk }∞ of finite Blaschke k=1 products. It is well known that big G-disc algebras AG over compact abelian groups G with ordered duals Γ = G ⊂ Q can be expressed as Blaschke inductive limit algebras. Any Blaschke inductive limit algebra A(b) is a maximal and Dirichlet uniform algebra. Its Shilov boundary ∂A(b) is a compact abelian group with dual group that is a subgroup of Q. It is shown that a big G-disc algebra AG over a group G with ordered dual G ⊂ R is a Blaschke inductive limit algebra if and only if G ⊂ Q. The local structure of the maximal ideal space and the set of one-point Gleason parts of a Blaschke inductive limit algebra differ dras- tically from the ones of a big G-disc algebra. These differences are utilized to construct examples of Blaschke inductive limit algebras that are not big G-disc algebras. A neces- sary and sufficient condition for a Blaschke inductive limit algebra to be isometrically isomorphic to a big G-disc algebra is found. We consider also inductive limits H ∞ (I) of algebras H ∞, linked by a sequence I = {Ik }∞ of inner functions, and prove a version of k=1 the corona theorem with estimates for it.
