We define the Schur–Agler class in infinite variables to consist of functions whose restrictions to finite-dimensional polydisks belong to the Schur–Agler class. We show that a natural generalization of an Agler decomposition holds and the functions possess transfer function realizations that allow us to extend the functions to the unit ball of
$\ell ^\infty $. We also give a Pick interpolation type theorem which displays a subtle difference with finitely many variables. Finally, we make a brief connection to Dirichlet series derived from the Schur–Agler class in infinite variables via the Bohr correspondence.
