We introduce characteristic functions for certain contractive liftings of row contractions. These are multi-analytic operators which classify the liftings up to unitary equivalence and provide a kind of functional model. The most important…
Motivated by a result on weak Markov dilations, we define a notion of characteristic function for ergodic and coisometric row contractions with a one-dimensional invariant subspace for the adjoints. This extends a definition given by G.…
The characteristic function of row contractions and liftings of row contractions are complete invariants up to unitary equivalence for row contractions and liftings of row contractions, respectively. We provide alternate proofs for these…
We develop a dilation theory for row contractions subject to constraints determined by sets of noncommutative polynomials. Under natural conditions on the constraints, we have uniqueness for the minimal dilation. A characteristic function…
Based on a careful analysis of functional models for contractive multi-analytic operators we establish a one-to-one correspondence between unitary equivalence classes of minimal contractive liftings of a row contraction and injective…
A characteristic function is a special operator-valued analytic function defined on the open unit ball of $\mathbb{C}^n$ associated with an $n$-tuple of commuting row contraction on some Hilbert space. In this paper, we continue our study…
We show that the constrained characteristic function is a complete unitary invariant for J-constrained completely non-coisometric (c.n.c.) row contractions, where J is a WOT-closed two-sided ideal of the noncommutative analytic Toeplitz…
The characteristic function has been an important tool for studying completely non unitary contractions on Hilbert spaces. In this note, we consider completely non-coisometric contractive tuples of commuting operators on a Hilbert space…
We introduce the notion of characteristic functions for commuting tuples of hypercontractions on Hilbert spaces, as a generalization of the notion of Sz.-Nagy and Foias characteristic functions of contractions. We present an explicit method…
Characteristic functions of linear operators are analytic functions that serve as complete unitary invariants. Such functions, as long as they are built in a natural and canonical manner, provide representations of inner functions on a…
This article investigates $k$-regular factorizations of characteristic functions associated with completely non-coisometric row contractions. In this setting, a one-to-one correspondence is established between chains of joint invariant…
We obtain a factorization of the characteristic function of a contractive two-step iterated lifting in terms of the characteristic functions of constituent liftings of the iterated lifting and the Julia-Halmos matrix. We also give an…
Let $A = (A_1, \ldots, A_n)$ and $B = (B_1, \ldots, B_n)$ be row contractions on $\mathcal{H}_1$ and $\mathcal{H}_2$, respectively, and $X$ be a row operator from $\oplus_{i=1}^n \mathcal{H}_2$ to $\mathcal{H}_1$. Let $D_{A^*} = (I - A…
Let T:=[T_1,..., T_n] be an n-tuple of operators on a Hilbert space such that T is a completely non-coisometric row contraction. We establish the existence of a "one-to-one" correspondence between the joint invariant subspaces under…
We study a class of homeomorphisms of surfaces collectively known as linked-twist maps. We introduce an abstract definition which enables us to give a precise characterisation of a property observed by other authors, namely that such maps…
We develop a theory of Valuation Hilbert Modules and prove a version of Beurling's theorem for these. Then we apply our version of Beurling's theorem to obtain complete descriptions of the closed invariant subspaces of a number of Hilbert…
The theory of characteristic functions for row contractions is used to determine the group $Aut(B(H)^n_1)$ of all free holomorphic automorphisms of the unit ball of $B(H)^n$. We show that the noncommutative Poisson transform commutes with…
