We give a complete characterization of polynomials in two complex variables that are cyclic with respect to the coordinate shifts acting on Dirichlet-type spaces in the bidisk, which include the Hardy space and the Dirichlet space of the…

Let D be a division algebra with center F. A maximal subfield of D is defined to be a field K such that CD(K) = K; that is, K is its own centralizer in D. A maximal subfield K is said to be self-invariant if it normalises by itself, i.e.…

A conjecture of Ulam states that the standard probability measure $\pi$ on the Hilbert cube $I^\omega$ is invariant under the induced metric $d_a$ when the sequence $a = \{ a_i \}$ of positive numbers satisfies the condition…

It is known that pure row contractions with one-dimensional defect spaces can be classified up to unitary equivalence by compressions of the standard $d$-shift acting on the full Fock space. Upon settling for a softer relation than unitary…

In this survey, we consider Banach spaces of analytic functions in one and several complex variables for which: (i) polynomials are dense, (ii) point-evaluations on the domain are bounded linear functionals, and (iii) the shift operator…

We first generalize the results of Le\'on and M\"uller [Studia Math. 175(1) 2006] on hypercyclic subspaces to sequences of operators on Fr\'echet spaces with a continuous norm. Then we study the particular case of iterates of an operator T…

First class constraints in a canonical formalism of a gauge theory might generate transformations which map a state to its physically equivalent state. This is called Dirac's conjecture. There are two examples which may be candidates of…

We extend results of B\'en\'eteau, Condori, Liaw, Seco, and the author concerning cyclic vectors in Dirichlet-type spaces to the setting of the unit ball, identifying some classes of cyclic and non-cyclic functions, and noting the necessity…

The non-commutative geometry of deformation quantization appears in string theory through the effect of a B-field background on the dynamics of D-branes in the topological limit. For arbitrary backgrounds, associativity of the star product…

In this note we show that for any subshift $X$ of finite $S$-rank every invariant measure $\mu$ is determined by its values on finitely many cylinders. Under mild conditions these cylinders are given by the letters of the alphabet in…

We study the problem of characterizing the cyclic vectors in de Branges-Rovnyak spaces. Based on a description of the invariant subspaces we show that the difficulty lies entirely in understanding the subspace $(aH^{2})^{\perp}$ and give a…

For $\alpha \in \mathbb{R},$ we consider the scale of function spaces, namely the Dirichlet-type space $\mathcal{D}_{\alpha}$ consisting of holomorphic functions on the unit bidisk $\mathbb{D}^2$, $f(z,w)=\sum_{k,l=0}^{\infty}a_{kl}z^kw^l$…

We show that Colliot-Th\'el\`ene's conjecture on 0-cycles of degree 1 implies finiteness for the u-invariant of the function field of a curve over a totally imaginary number field and period-index bounds for the Brauer groups of arbitrary…

The ring of cyclic quasi-symmetric functions and its non-Escher subring are introduced in this paper. A natural basis consists of fundamental cyclic quasi-symmetric functions; for the non-Escher subring they arise as toric $P$-partition…

Given a symmetric Dirichlet form $(\mathcal{E},\mathcal{F})$ on a (non-trivial) $\sigma$-finite measure space $(E,\mathcal{B},m)$ with associated Markovian semigroup $\{T_{t}\}_{t\in(0,\infty)}$, we prove that $(\mathcal{E},\mathcal{F})$ is…

We consider a complete metric space $(X,d)$ and a countable number of contractive mappings on $X$, $\mathcal{F}=\{F_i:i\in\mathbb N\}$. We show the existence of a {\em smallest} invariant set (with respect to inclusion) for $\mathcal{F}$.…

We prove the property that a function is cyclic (resp., non-cyclic) is not preserved by norm convergence in Dirichlet-type spaces $D_\alpha$, and show how other significant quantities for cyclicity do remain preserved under the limit of…

We introduce a notion of {\em cyclic Schur-positivity} for sets of permutations, which naturally extends the classical notion of Schur-positivity, and it involves the existence of a bijection from permutations to standard Young tableaux…

In this work, we construct examples of holomorphic functions in $D_2(\B_2)$, the Dirichlet space on $\B_2$, for which there exists an index $\alpha_c \in [\frac12,2]$ such that the function is cyclic in $D_\alpha(\B_2)$ if and only if…

We construct an example to show that no condition of slow decrease of the modulus of a function is sufficient to make it cyclic in the Hardy space of the bidisc. This is similar to what is well known in the case of the Hardy space of the…
