We use a model operator approach and the spectral theorem for self-adjoint operators in a Hilbert space to derive the basic results of abstract left-definite theory in a straightforward manner. The theory is amply illustrated with a variety…

The main aim of this paper is to generalize the classical concept of positive operator, and to develop a general extension theory, which overcomes not only the lack of a Hilbert space structure, but also the lack of a normable topology. The…

The question if a given partial solution to a problem can be extended reasonably occurs in many algorithmic approaches for optimization problems. For instance, when enumerating minimal dominating sets of a graph $G=(V,E)$, one usually…

An analogue of Krein's extension theorem is proved for operator-valued positive definite functions on free groups. The proof gives also the parametrization of all extensions by means of a generalized type of Szego parameters. One singles…

On a reflexive Banach space $X$, if an operator $T$ admits a functional calculus for the absolutely continuous functions on its spectrum $\sigma(T) \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, then this functional calculus can always be extended to include all…

The theory of positive kernels and associated reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces, especially in the setting of holomorphic functions, has been an important tool for the last several decades in a number of areas of complex analysis and…

The problem is considered as to whether a monotone function defined on a subset P of a Euclidean space can be strictly monotonically extended to the whole space. It is proved that this is the case if and only if the function is {\em…

Let $1 < p < \infty$ and suppose that we are given a function $f$ defined on the leaves of a weighted tree. We would like to extend $f$ to a function $F$ defined on the entire tree, so as to minimize the weighted $W^{1,p}$-Sobolev norm of…

Let $\mathbb{H}$ be a Hilbert space, $E \subset \mathbb{H}$ be an arbitrary subset and $f: E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}, \: G: E \rightarrow \mathbb{H}$ be two functions. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the pair $(f,G)$ for the…
