By a famous result, functions in backward shift invariant subspaces in Hardy spaces are characterized by the fact that they admit a pseudocontinuation a.e. on $\T$. More can be said if the spectrum of the associated inner function has holes…
Given a purely contractive matrix-valued analytic function $\Theta$ on the unit disc $\bm{D}$, we study the $\mc{U} (n)$-parameter family of unitary perturbations of the operator $Z_\Theta$ of multiplication by $z$ in the Hilbert space…
In this paper we present some consequences of the description of matrix representations of asymmetric truncated Toeplitz operators acting between finite-dimensional model spaces. In particular, we prove that these operators can be…
We study the class of operators $S_{\alpha,\beta}$ obtained by compressing the Hardy shift on the parametric spaces $H^2_{\alpha, \beta}$ corresponding to the pair $\{\alpha,\beta\}$ satisfying $|\alpha|^2+|\beta|^2=1$. We show, for nonzero…
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…
Matrix valued inner functions on the bidisk have a number of natural subspaces of the Hardy space on the torus associated to them. We study their relationship to Agler decompositions, regularity up to the boundary, and restriction maps into…
A classical result of Norbert Wiener characterises doubly shift-invariant subspaces for square integrable functions on the unit circle with respect to a finite positive Borel measure $\mu$, as being the ranges of the multiplication maps…
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 consider Hilbert spaces of analytic functions in the disk with a normalized reproducing kernel and such that the backward shift $f(z) \mapsto \frac{f(z)-f(0)}{z}$ is a contraction on the space. We present a model for this operator and…
For truncated Toeplitz operators, which are compressions of multiplication operators to model subspaces of the Hardy space $H^2$, we obtain criteria for commutation relations. The results show an analogy to the case of Toeplitz matrices,…
We introduce and systematically study a class of operators that arise naturally due to the Beurling decomposition of the Hardy space $H^2=K_\theta \oplus \theta H^2$. While the compressions of classical Toeplitz and Hankel operators to the…
We examine iteration of certain skew-products on the bidisk whose components are rational inner functions, with emphasis on simple maps of the form $\Phi(z_1,z_2) = (\phi(z_1,z_2), z_2)$. If $\phi$ has degree $1$ in the first variable, the…
We study positive Toeplitz operators on the Bergman spaces having the fast decreasing weight functions in a certain class. We give the characterizations for the boundedness and compactness of Toeplitz operators in terms of their Berezin…
We represent closed subspaces of the Hardy space that are invariant under finite-rank perturbations of the backward shift. We apply this to classify almost invariant subspaces of the backward shift and represent a more refined version of…
For $\alpha>-1$, let $A^2_{\alpha}$ be the corresponding weighted Bergman space of the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^n$. For a bounded measurable function $f$, let $T_f$ be the Toeplitz operator with symbol $f$ on $A^2_{\alpha}$. This paper…
Let $\mathbb H$ be the finite direct sums of $H^2(\mathbb D)$. In this paper, we give a characterization of the closed subspaces of $\mathbb H$ which are invariant under the shift, thus obtaining a concrete Beurling-type theorem for the…
Consider the Dirichlet-type space on the bidisk consisting of holomorphic functions $f(z_1,z_2):=\sum_{k,l\geq 0}a_{kl}z_1^kz_2^l$ such that $\sum_{k,l\geq 0}(k+1)^{\alpha_1} (l+1)^{\alpha_2}|a_{kl}|^2 <\infty.$ Here the parameters…
We generalise the result of Berger and Shaw the trace formula for Hardy Hilbert space to a larger class of rotation invariant Hilbert function spaces on the unit disk. We also demonstrate many meaningful examples of these Hilbert spaces by…
This article describes Hilbert spaces contractively contained in certain reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of analytic functions on the open unit disc which are nearly invariant under division by an inner function. We extend Hitt's theorem…
Truncated Toeplitz operators and their asymmetric versions are studied in the context of the Hardy space $H^p$ of the half-plane for $1<p<\infty$. It is shown that they are equivalent after extension to $2 \times 2$ matricial Toeplitz…
