We prove Tolokonnikov’s Lemma and the inner-outer factorization for the real Hardy space $${{H^{\infty}_{\mathbb{R}}}}$$ , the space of bounded holomorphic (possibly operator-valued) functions on the unit disc all of whose matrix-entries (with respect to fixed orthonormal bases) are functions having real Fourier coefficients, or equivalently, each matrix entry f satisfies $${\overline{f(\overline{z})}} = f(z)$$ for all z ∈ $${\mathbb{D}}$$ . Tolokonnikov’s Lemma for $${{H^{\infty}_{\mathbb{R}}}}$$ means that if f is left-invertible, then f can be completed to an isomorphism; that is, there exists an F, invertible in $${{H^{\infty}_{\mathbb{R}}}}$$ , such that F = [ f f c ] for some f c in $${{H^{\infty}_{\mathbb{R}}}}$$ . In control theory, Tolokonnikov’s Lemma implies that if a function has a right coprime factorization over $${{H^{\infty}_{\mathbb{R}}}}$$ , then it has a doubly coprime factorization in $${{H^{\infty}_{\mathbb{R}}}}$$ . We prove the lemma for the real disc algebra $${A_{\mathbb{R}}}$$ as well. In particular, $${{H^{\infty}_{\mathbb{R}}}}$$ and $${A_{\mathbb{R}}}$$ are Hermite rings.
