The curvature $\mathcal K_T(w)$ of a contraction $T$ in the Cowen-Douglas class $B_1(\mathbb D)$ is bounded above by the curvature $\mathcal K_{S^*}(w)$ of the backward shift operator. However, in general, an operator satisfying the…
We are concerned with the similarity problem for Cowen-Douglas operator tuples. The unitary equivalence counterpart was already investigated in the 1970's and geometric concepts including vector bundles and curvature appeared in the…
Fix a bounded planar domain $\Omega.$ If an operator $T,$ in the Cowen-Douglas class $B_1(\Omega),$ admits the compact set $\bar{\Omega}$ as a spectral set, then the curvature inequality $\mathcal K_T(w) \leq - 4 \pi^2 S_\Omega(w,w)^2,$…
For an operator $T$ in the class ${\mathrm B}_n(\Omega)$, introduced in \cite{CD}, the simultaneous unitary equivalence class of the curvature and the covariant derivatives up to a certain order of the corresponding bundle $E_T$ determine…
In this paper we study quasi-homogeneous operators, which include the homogeneous operators, in the Cowen-Douglas class. We give two separate theorems describing canonical models (with respect to equivalence under unitary and invertible…
In 1978, M. J. Cowen and R.G. Douglas introduce a class of operators (known as Cowen-Douglas class of operators) and associates a Hermitian holomorphic vector bundle to such an operator in a very influential paper. They give a complete set…
In this paper, a new criterion for the similarity of commuting tuples of operators on Hilbert spaces is introduced. As an application, we obtain a geometric similarity invariant of tuples in the Cowen-Douglas class which gives a partial…
We consider a subclass of the Cowen-Douglas class in which the problem of deciding whether two operators are similar becomes more manageable. A similarity criterion for Cowen-Douglas operators is known to be dependent on the trace of the…
Sharp Moser-Trudinger type inequalities and their extremal functions play an important role in studying nonlinear PDEs and geometry. We establish a new sharp Moser-Trudinger type inequality in the upper half space in two dimensions and…
We determine linear inequalities on the eigenvalues of curvature operators that imply vanishing of the twisted $\hat A$ genus on a closed Riemannian spin manifold, where the twisting bundle is any prescribed parallel bundle of tensors.…
A well-known theorem due to R. E. Curto and N. Salinas gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the unitary equivalence of commuting tuples of bounded linear operators acting on reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Inspired by this…
The classical Cowen-Douglas class of (commuting tuples of) operators possessing an open set of (joint) eigenvalues of finite constant multiplicity was introduced by Cowen and Douglas, generalizing the backward shifts. Their unitary…
We introduce a set of operator-valued invariants for localization of operator tuples in the Cowen-Douglas class, with which a Specht-type criterion for unitary equivalence is obtained.
Some extremalities for quadrature operators are proved for convex functions of higher order. Such results are known in the numerical analysis, however they are often proved under suitable differentiability assumptions. In our considerations…
We study Bakry-\'Emery curvature-dimension inequalities for non-local operators on the one-dimensional lattice and prove that operators with finite second moment have finite dimension. Moreover, we show that a class of operators related to…
In this paper we classify all positive extremal functions to a sharp weighted Sobolev inequality on the upper half space, which involves divergent operators with degeneracy on the boundary. As an application of the results, we can derive a…
The optimal constants in a class of exponential type inequalities for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in the Gauss space are detected. The existence of extremal functions in the relevant inequalities is also established. Our results…
We prove the existence of an extremal function in the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality for the energy associated to an stable operator. To this aim we obtain a concentration-compactness principle for stable processes in $\mathbb{R}^N$.
We establish a connection between the de Branges-Rovnyak spaces and the Cowen-Douglas class of operators which is associated with complex geometric structures. We prove that the backward shift operator on a de Branges-Rovnyak space never…
We investigate Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type inequalities for the weighted biharmonic operator on cones, both under Navier and Dirichlet boundary conditions. Moreover, we study existence and qualitative properties of extremal functions. In…
