contents In this paper, we derive a formula for the pluricomplex Green function of the bidisk with two poles of equal weights. In 2017, Kosiński, Thomas, and Zwonek proved the Lempert function and the pluricomplex Green function are equal on the bidisk, and their description of Lempert function was pivotal in computing the formula for the pluricomplex Green function. We divide the bidisk into two open regions, where the formula is found explicitly on the first region, and the other region is the union of a family of hypersurfaces. On each hypersurface, the formula is explicit up to a unimodular constant that is the root of a sixth degree polynomial. This derived formula for the bidisk leads to an explicit formula for the Carathéodory metric on the symmetrized bidisk up to a fourth degree polynomial. In 2004, Agler and Young found a formula for Carathéodory metric for the symmetrized bidisk that involves a supremum over the unimodular constants. The formula derived in this paper matches Agler and Young's formula, but the unimodular constant is determined by a 4th degree polynomial instead of the before mentioned supremum.

In this paper, we derive a formula for the pluricomplex Green function of the bidisk with two poles of equal weights. In 2017, Kosiński, Thomas, and Zwonek proved the Lempert function and the pluricomplex Green function are equal on the bidisk, and their description of Lempert function was pivotal in computing the formula for the pluricomplex Green function. We divide the bidisk into two open regions, where the formula is found explicitly on the first region, and the other region is the union of a family of hypersurfaces. On each hypersurface, the formula is explicit up to a unimodular constant that is the root of a sixth degree polynomial.
