Summary: We compute completely isometric representations of quotients of the operator algebra

$\Shift_d$ generated by the

$d$ -shift introduced by Arveson. This gives rise to a higher dimensional generalization of Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation theory. Quotients of

$\Shift_d$ of dimension~

$r$ admit a completely isometric representation by \Mp{r\times r}matrices. There is an efficient criterion to decide whether an \Mp{r}dimensional algebra of \Mp{r\times r}matrices is a quotient of

$\Shift_d$ .
