For an operator $T$ of class $C_0$ with multiplicity two, we show that the quasisimilarity class of an invariant subspace $M$ is determined by the quasisimilarity classes of the restriction $T|M$ and of the compression $T_{M^\perp}$. We…

We provide a direct, intersection theoretic, argument that the Jordan models of an operator of class C_{0}, of its restriction to an invariant subspace, and of its compression to the orthogonal complement, satisfy a multiplicative form of…

We show that a Jordan algebra of compact quasinilpotent operators which contains a nonzero trace class operator has a common invariant subspace. As a consequence of this result, we obtain that a Jordan algebra of quasinilpotent Schatten…

If $T$ is a polynomially bounded operator, $\mathcal M$ is an invariant subspace of $T$, $T|_{\mathcal M}$ is a unilateral shift and $T^*|_{\mathcal M^\perp}$ is subnormal, then $T$ has a nontrivial hyperinvariant subspace. If an operator…

It is known that invariant subspaces of classical Jordan blocks of the Hardy space over the open unit disc are described by factorizations of inner functions. In the polydisc setting, Jordan blocks are tensor products of one-variable Jordan…

For a power bounded or polynomially bounded operator $T$ sufficient conditions for the existence of a nontrivial hyperinvariant subspace are given. The obtained hyperinvariant subspaces of $T$ have the form of the closure of the range of…

In the setting of operators on Hilbert spaces, we prove that every quasinilpotent operator has a non-trivial closed invariant subspace if and only if every pair of idempotents with a quasinilpotent commutator has a non-trivial common closed…

We show that a bounded quasinilpotent operator $T$ acting on an infinite dimensional Banach space has an invariant subspace if and only if there exists a rank one operator $F$ and a scalar $\alpha\in\mathbb{C}$, $\alpha\neq 0$, $\alpha\neq…

Let $M_{z}$ be the multiplication operator on the Bergman space and $M_{I}$ denote the restriction of $M_{z}$ to an invariant subspace $I$. A question raised by K. Zhu is that when are two restriction operators $M_{I}$ and $M_{J}$ are…

An operator $T$ is called a 3-isometry if there exists operators $B_1(T^*,T)$ and $B_2(T^*,T)$ such that \[Q(n)=T^{*n}T^n=1+nB_1(T^*,T)+n^2 B_2(T^*,T)\] for all natural numbers $n$. An operator $J$ is a Jordan operator of order $2$ if…

In this paper, to solve the invariant subspace problem, contraction operators are classified into three classes ; (Case 1) completely non-unitary contractions with a non-trivial algebraic element, (Case 2) completely non-unitary…

Let $R$ be a compact Riemann surface and $\Gamma$ be a Jordan curve separating $R$ into connected components $\Sigma_1$ and $\Sigma_2$. We consider Calder\'on-Zygmund type operators $T(\Sigma_1,\Sigma_k)$ taking the space of $L^2$…

Jordan operator algebras are norm-closed spaces of operators on a Hilbert space with a^2 in A for all a in A. In two recent papers by the authors and Neal, a theory for these spaces was developed. It was shown there that much of the theory…

We introduce and study the following modified version of the Invariant Subspace Problem: whether every operator T on a Banach space has an almost invariant half-space, that is, a subspace Y of infinite dimension and infinite codimension…

Jordan operator algebras are norm-closed spaces of operators on a Hilbert space which are closed under the Jordan product. The discovery of the present paper is that there exists a huge and tractable theory of possibly nonselfadjoint Jordan…

It is shown that to every operator T in a general von Neumann factor M of type II_1 and to every Borel set B in the complex plane, one can associate a largest, closed, T-invariant subspace, K = K_T(B), affiliated with M, such that the Brown…

This paper is a follow-up contribution to our work [20] where we discussed some invariant subspace results for contractions on Hilbert spaces. Here we extend the results of [20] to the context of n-tuples of bounded linear operators on…

We use principal angles between two subspaces to define Jordan planes. Jordan planes provide an optimal way to decompose $\mathbb{C}^n$ in relation to given two subspaces. We apply Jordan planes to show that two pairs of of subspaces…

We obtain a complete characterization for doubly commuting mixed invariant subspaces of the Hardy space over the unit polydisc. We say a closed subspace $\mathcal{Q}$ of $H^2(\mathbb{D}^n)$ is mixed invariant if $M_{z_{j}}(\mathcal{Q})…
