We introduce the notion of characteristic function of a quaternionic matrix, whose roots are the left eigenvalues. We prove that for all $2\times 2$ matrices and for $3\times 3$ matrices having some zero entry outside the diagonal there is…

We show that the factorization problem $\theta (z)=\theta_2(z)\theta_1(z)$ is solvable in the class of Hilbert space operator-valued functions holomorphic on some neighbourhood of $z=0$ in $\nspace{C}{N}$ and having a zero at $z=0$ (here…

We introduce a class of doubly infinite complex Jacobi matrices determined by a simple convergence condition imposed on the diagonal and off-diagonal sequences. For each Jacobi matrix belonging to this class, an analytic function, called a…

The goal of the present paper is to push Sz.-Nagy--Foias model theory for a completely nonunitary Hilbert-space contraction operator $T$, to the case of a commuting pair of contraction operators $(T_1, T_2)$ having product $T = T_1 T_2$…

Let $\E$ be a finite dimensional Hilbert space. This note finds all factorizations of the right shift semigroup $\S^\E=(S_t^\E)_{t\ge 0}$ on $L^2(\R_+,\E)$ into the product of $n$ commuting contractive semigroups, i.e., characterizes all…

A Haar system Hardy space is the completion of the linear span of the Haar system $(h_I)_I$, either under a rearrangement-invariant norm $\|\cdot \|$ or under the associated square function norm \begin{equation*} \Bigl\| \sum_Ia_Ih_I…

Let $M$ be a complex torus, $L_{\hat\mu}\to M$ be positive line bundles parametrized by $\hat \mu\in {\rm Pic}^0(M)$, and $E\to {\rm Pic}^0(M)$ be a vector bundle with $E|_{\hat\mu}\cong H^0(M, L_{\hat \mu})$. We endow the total family…

We show that the constrained characteristic function is a complete unitary invariant for J-constrained completely non-coisometric (c.n.c.) row contractions, where J is a WOT-closed two-sided ideal of the noncommutative analytic Toeplitz…

Integrable theory is formulated for correlation functions of characteristic polynomials associated with invariant non-Gaussian ensembles of Hermitean random matrices. By embedding the correlation functions of interest into a more general…

Let ${\mathfrak H}_A$, ${\mathfrak H}_B$, and ${\mathfrak H}$ be Hilbert spaces. Let $A$ be a linear relation from ${\mathfrak H}$ to ${\mathfrak H}_A$ and let $B$ be a linear relation from ${\mathfrak H}$ to ${\mathfrak H}_B$. If there…

Let $\mathfrak M$ and $\mathfrak N$ be separable Hilbert spaces and let $\Theta(\lambda)$ be a function from the Schur class ${\bf S}(\mathfrak M,\mathfrak N)$ of contractive functions holomorphic on the unit disk. The operator…

A bounded linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space is said to be homogeneous if $\varphi(T)$ is unitarily equivalent to $T$ for all $\varphi$ in the group M\"{o}b of bi-holomorphic automorphisms of the unit disc. A projective unitary…

The celebrated theorem of Berger, Coburn and Lebow on pairs of commuting isometries can be formulated as follows: a pure isometry $V$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is a product of two commuting isometries $V_1$ and $V_2$ in…

Suppose that f is a projective birational morphism with at most one-dimensional fibres between d-dimensional varieties X and Y, satisfying ${\bf R}f_* \mathcal{O}_X = \mathcal{O}_Y$. Consider the locus L in Y over which f is not an…

We introduce the notion of $k$-regular factorizations for contractions into $k$ factors, generalizing the classical notion of regular factorization due to Sz.-Nagy and Foia\c{s}, and develop a systematic framework for their analysis. Using…

We extend the classical construction of operator colligations and characteristic functions. Consider the group $G$ of finite block unitary matrices of size $\alpha+\infty+...+\infty$ ($k$ times). Consider the subgroup $K=U(\infty)$, which…

Let T be a bounded operator on a Hilbert space H, and F = {f_j: j in J} an at most countable set of vectors in H. In this note, we characterize the pairs {T, F} such that {T^n f: f in F, n in I} form a frame of H, for the cases of I = N_0…

We present a characterization of one-component inner functions in terms of the location of their zeros and their associated singular measure. As consequence we answer several questions posed by J. Cima and R. Mortini. In particular we prove…

The derived category of a hypersurface has an action by "cohomology operations" k[t], deg t=-2, underlying the 2-periodic structure on its category of singularities (as matrix factorizations). We prove a Thom-Sebastiani type Theorem,…
