Generalising the definition to commuting $d$-tuples of operators, a number of authors have considered structural properties of $m$-isometric, $n$-symmetric and $(m,n)$-isosymmetric commuting $d$-tuples in the recent past. This note is an…

Composition operators with analytic symbols on some reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of entire functions on a complex Hilbert space are studied. The questions of their boundedness, seminormality and positivity are investigated. It is…

We construct a topology on the standard Hilbert module $l^2(\mathcal A)$ over a unital $W^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$ such that any "compact" operator, (i.e.\ any operator in the norm closure of the linear span of the operators of the form…

We study operator algebraic and function theoretic aspects of algebras of bounded nc functions on subvarieties of the nc domain determined by all levels of the unit ball of an operator space (nc operator balls). Our main result is the…

We study hermitian operators and isometries on spaces of vector-valued Lipschitz maps with the sum norm: $\|\cdot\|_{\infty}+L(\cdot)$. There are two main theorems in this paper. Firstly, we prove that every hermitian operator on…

We define nonselfadjoint operator algebras with generators $L_{e_1},..., L_{e_n}, L_{f_1},...,L_{f_m}$ subject to the unitary commutation relations of the form \[ L_{e_i}L_{f_j} = \sum_{k,l} u_{i,j,k,l} L_{f_l}L_{e_k}\] where $u=…

Let $(S_1, S_2)$ be a bi-isometry, that is, a pair of commuting isometries $S_1$ and $S_2$ on a complex Hilbert space $\mathscr H.$ By the von Neumann-Wold decomposition, the hyper-range $\mathscr H_\infty(S_1):=\cap_{n=0}^\infty…

In this article we prove the existence of the polar decomposition for densely defined closed right linear operators in quaternionic Hilbert spaces: If $T$ is a densely defined closed right linear operator in a quaternionic Hilbert space…

In this paper we characterize $m$-isometric and quasi-$m$-isometric weighted composition operators on the Hilbert space $L^2(\mu)$. Also, we find that normal-$m$-isometry and normal quasi-$m$-isometry weighted composition operators have…

The classical Cowen-Douglas class of (commuting tuples of) operators possessing an open set of (joint) eigenvalues of finite constant multiplicity was introduced by Cowen and Douglas, generalizing the backward shifts. Their unitary…

In this work, we introduce the concept of the direct integral of locally Hilbert spaces. This notion is formulated such that the direct integral of locally Hilbert spaces forms a locally Hilbert space. We then define two classes of locally…

We study the structure of weakly-closed nonself-adjoint algebras arising from representations of single vertex 2-graphs. These are the algebras generated by 2 isometric tuples which satisfy a certain commutation relation. We show that these…

The celebrated Sz.-Nagy and Foias and Ando theorems state that a single contraction, or a pair of commuting contractions, acting on a Hilbert space always possesses isometric dilation and subsequently satisfies the von Neumann inequality…

Suppose A and B are unital C*-algebras and A is separable. Let Rep(A,B) denote the set of all unital *-homomorphisms from A to B with the topology of pointwise convergence. We consider the problem of when the closure of the unitary orbit of…

We give a new formulation and proof of a theorem of Halmos and Wallen on the structure of power partial isometries on Hilbert space. We then use this theorem to give a structure theorem for a finite set of partial isometries which…

The starting points for this paper are simple descriptions of the norm and strong* closures of the unitary orbit of a normal operator in a von Neumann algebra. The statements are in terms of spectral data and do not depend on the type or…

We obtain a functional model for an arbitrary Abelian locally von Neumann algebra acting on a representing locally Hilbert space under the assumption that the index directed set is countable, in terms of locally essentially bounded…

We develop a natural generalization of vector-valued frame theory, we term operator-valued frame theory, using operator-algebraic methods. This extends work of the second author and D. Han which can be viewed as the multiplicity one case…

The weak operator topology closed operator algebra on $L^2(R)$ generated by the one-parameter semigroups for translation, dilation and multiplication by $exp(i\lambda x), \lambda \geq 0$, is shown to be a reflexive operator algebra, in the…

Let $\M$ be a von Neumann algebra with a faithful normal trace $\T$, and let $H^\infty$ be a finite, maximal, subdiagonal algebra of $\M$. Fundamental theorems on conjugate functions for weak$^*$\!-Dirichlet algebras are shown to be valid…
