The Stieltjes moment problem is studied in a new framework within the general Gelfand-Shilov spaces defined via weight sequences. The novelty consists of allowing for a naturally larger target space for the moment mapping, which sends a…
Fundamental properties of unbounded composition operators in $L^2$-spaces are studied. Characterizations of normal and quasinormal composition operators are provided. Formally normal composition operators are shown to be normal. Composition…
We construct continuous (and even invertible) linear operators acting on Banach (even Hilbert) spaces whose restrictions to their respective closed linear subspaces of chain recurrent vectors are not chain recurrent operators. This…
This dissertation summarizes my investigations in operator theory during my PhD studies. The first chapter is an introduction to that field of operator theory which was developed by B. Sz.-Nagy and C. Foias, the theory of power-bounded…
In a recent paper [15], Hilbert space operators $T$ with the property that each sequence of the form $\{\|T^n h\|^2\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ is conditionally positive definite in a semigroup sense were introduced. In the present paper, this line…
Let $\mathscr T$ be a rooted directed tree with finite branching index $k_{\mathscr T}$ and let $S_{\lambda} \in B(l^2(V))$ be a left-invertible weighted shift on ${\mathscr T}$. We show that $S_{\lambda}$ can be modelled as a…
A complete characterization of near subnormality for bilateral weighted shifts is obtained. As an application of the main results, many new answers to the Hilbert space problem 160 are presented at the end of the paper.
Weighted shifts on directed trees are a decade old generalisation of classical shift operators in the sequence space $\ell^2$. In this paper we introduce the joint backward extension property (JBEP) for classes of weighted shifts on…
We consider weighted shift operators having the property of moment infinite divisibility; that is, for any $p > 0$, the shift is subnormal when every weight (equivalently, every moment) is raised to the $p$-th power. By reconsidering…
Assorted weighted shifts over finite rooted directed trees are studied. Their complex symmetry is characterized.
An absolute continuity approach to quasinormality which relates the operator in question to the spectral measure of its modulus is developed. Algebraic characterizations of some classes of operators that emerged in this context are…
The subnormal completion problem on a directed tree is to determine, given a collection of weights on a subtree, whether the weights may be completed to the weights of a subnormal weighted shift on the directed tree. We study this problem…
This paper explores the notions of $\mathcal{F}$-transitivity and topological $\mathcal{F}$-recurrence for backward shift operators on weighted $\ell^p$-spaces and $c_0$-spaces on directed trees, where $\mathcal{F}$ represents a Furstenberg…
We show that a weighted shift on a directed tree is related to a multiplier algebra of coefficients of analytic functions. We use this relation to study spectral properties of the operators in question.
We study bounded weighted shifts on directed trees. We show that the set of multiplication operators associated with an injective weighted shift on a rooted directed tree coincides with the WOT/SOT closure of the set of polynomials of the…
In this note, necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for unilateral weighted shifts to be near subnormal . As an application of the main results, many answers to the Hilbert space problem 160 are presented at the end of the paper.
We study jointly quasinormal and spherically quasinormal pairs of commuting operators on Hilbert space, as well as their powers. We first prove that, up to a constant multiple, the only jointly quasinormal $2$-variable weighted shift is the…
In this paper, we study the hypercyclicity of forward and backward shifts on weighted $L^p$ spaces of a directed tree. In the forward case, only the trivial trees may support hypercyclic shifts, in which case the classical results of Salas…
A linear operator $S$ in a complex Hilbert space $\hh$ for which the set $\dzn{S}$ of its $C^\infty$-vectors is dense in $\hh$ and $\{\|S^n f\|^2\}_{n=0}^\infty$ is a Stieltjes moment sequence for every $f \in \dzn{S}$ is said to generate…
Our main theorem is in the generality of the axioms of Hilbert space, and the theory of unbounded operators. Consider two Hilbert spaces such that their intersection contains a fixed vector space D. It is of interest to make a precise…
