We here first study the state space realization of a tensor-product of a pair of rational functions. At the expense of "inflating" the dimensions, we recover the classical expressions for realization of a regular product of rational…

For a generic value of the central charge, we prove the holomorphic factorization of partition functions for free superconformal fields which are defined on a compact Riemann surface without boundary. The partition functions are viewed as…

Let G be the group of points of a quasi-split reductive algebraic group over a local field F. It follows from the local Langlands conjectures that to every non-trivial additive character of F and every representation of the Langlands dual…

The aim of this paper is to establish a canonical decomposition of operator-valued strong $L^2$-functions by the aid of the Beurling-Lax-Halmos Theorem which characterizes the shift-invariant subspaces of vector-valued Hardy space. This…

Let b be a function on the plane. Let H_j, j=1,2, be the Hilbert transform acting on the j-th coordinate on the plane. We show that the operator norm of the double commutator [[ M_b, H_1], H_2] is equivalent to the Chang-Fefferman BMO norm…

We consider contractive homomorphisms of a planar algebra ${\mathcal A}(\Omega)$ over a finitely connected bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \C$ and ask if they are necessarily completely contractive. We show that a homomorphism…

The main result concerns a bicategorical factorization system on the bicategory $\mathrm{Cat}$ of categories and functors. Each functor $A\xra{f} B$ factors up to isomorphism as $A\xra{j}E\xra{p}B$ where $j$ is what we call an ultimate…

We take a novel lattice-theoretic approach to the $\tau$-cluster morphism category $\mathfrak{T}(A)$ of a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ and define the category via the lattice of torsion classes $\mathrm{tors } A$. Using the lattice…

In this paper we show that every conjugation $C$ on the Hardy-Hilbert space $H^{2}$ is of type $C=T^{*}C_{1}T$, where $T$ is an unitary operator and $C_{1}f\left(z\right)=\overline{f\left(\overline{z}\right)}$, with $f\in H^{2}$. In the…

This article develops several functional models for a given $\Gamma_n$-contraction. The first model is motivated by the Douglas functional model for a contraction. We then establish factorization results that clarify the relationship…

For a closed densely defined operator $T$ from a Hilbert space $\mathfrak{H}$ to a Hilbert space $\mathfrak{K}$, necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the factorization of $T$ with a bounded nonnegative operator $X$ on…

Denote by $B_n$ the set of complex square matrices of order $n$, whose Euclidean operator norms are $<1$. Its Shilov boundary is the set $U(n)$ of all unitary matrices. A holomorphic map $B_m\to B_n$ is inner if it sends $U(m)$ to $U(n)$.…

Let $\|\cdot\|_{\mathbf A}$ be a norm on $\mathbb C^m$ given by the formula $\|(z_1,\ldots,z_m)\|_{\mathbf A}=\|z_1A_1+\cdots+z_mA_m\|_{\rm op}$ for some choice of an $m$-tuple of $n\times n$ linearly independent matrices $\mathbf A=(A_1,…

In previous work, the authors studied the compressed shift operators $S_{z_1}$ and $S_{z_2}$ on two-variable model spaces $H^2(\mathbb{D}^2)\ominus \theta H^2(\mathbb{D}^2)$, where $\theta$ is a two-variable scalar inner function. Among…

Recently, the authors studied the connection between each maximal monotone operator T and a family H(T) of convex functions. Each member of this family characterizes the operator and satisfies two particular inequalities. The aim of this…

We study some combinatorial aspects of the fixed loci of symplectic involutions acting on hyperk\"ahler varieties of Kummer type. Given an abelian surface $A$ with a $(1,d)$-polarization $L$, there is an isomorphism $K_{d-1}A\cong…

Let A be a closed subalgebra of a C*-algebra, that is a closed algebra of Hilbert space operators. We generalize to such operator algebras $A$ several key theorems and concepts from the theory of classical function algebras. In particular…

In this paper, we introduce new classes of functions that extend the known classes of functions of complex variable, such as entire functions, meromorphic functions, rational functions and polynomial functions and take values in the set of…

Given two linear relations $A$ and $B$ we characterize the existence of a linear relation (operator) $C$ such that $A\subseteq BC$, respectively $A\subseteq CB.$ These factorizations extend and improve well-known results by R.G. Douglas and…

Factorization of string amplitudes is one way of constructing string interaction vertices. We show that correlation functions in string theory can be conveniently factorized using loop variables representing delta functionals. We illustrate…
