Abstract

The Hardy operator has all the monomial functions as eigenvectors. We study bounded operators on L^2 that take monomial functions to multiples of other monomials, with a shifted exponent. We prove that they all leave the space of functions vanishing on [0,s] invariant. We prove an asymptotic Muntz-Szasz theorem, characterizing the set of functions that are limits of linear combinations of monomials with exponents between n and 2n.
