Let $\alpha :\sqrt{x_{m}},\cdots ,\sqrt{x_{1}},(\sqrt{u},\sqrt{v},\sqrt{w}% )^{\wedge}$ be a backward $m$-step extension of a recursive weight sequence and let $% W_{\alpha }$ be the weighted shift associated with $\alpha $. In this paper…

We first find an explicit formula for the square root of positive $2 \times 2$ operator matrices with commuting entries, and then use it to define and study semi-hyponormality for commuting pairs of Hilbert space operators. \ For the…

We study a general class of weighted shifts whose weights $\alpha$ are given by $\alpha_n = \sqrt{\frac{p^n + N}{p^n + D}}$, where $p > 1$ and $N$ and $D$ are parameters so that $(N,D) \in (-1, 1)\times (-1, 1)$. Some few examples of these…

A complete characterization of near subnormality for bilateral weighted shifts is obtained. As an application of the main results, many new answers to the Hilbert space problem 160 are presented at the end of the paper.

We study jointly quasinormal and spherically quasinormal pairs of commuting operators on Hilbert space, as well as their powers. We first prove that, up to a constant multiple, the only jointly quasinormal $2$-variable weighted shift is the…

The complete characterizations of the spectra and their various parts of hyponormal unilateral and bilateral weighted shifts are presented respectively in this paper. The results obtained here generalize the corresponding work of the…

This paper is devoted to the study of propagation phenomena for $2$--hyponormal, quadratically hyponormal, and cubically hyponormal operator-valued weighted shifts. \ First, we show that every {\it quadratically} hyponormal matrix-valued…

We study two-dimensional non-linear sigma models with (2,2) supersymmetry and a holomorphic superpotential that are believed to flow to unitary compact (2,2) superconformal theories with equal left and right central charges c=9. The SCFTs…

We study the class of hyponormal 2-variable weighted shifts with two consecutive equal weights in the weight sequence of one of the coordinate operators. We show that under natural assumptions on the coordinate operators, the presence of…

We establish an almost sure scaling limit theorem for super-Brownian motion on $\mathbb{R}^d$ associated with the semi-linear equation $u_t = {1/2}\Delta u +\beta u-\alpha u^2$, where $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are positive constants. In this…

In this paper we study convexity properties for quasilinear Lane-Emden-Fowler equations of the type $$\begin{cases} -\Delta_p u = a(x) u^q & \quad \hbox{ in $\Omega$},\\ u >0 & \quad \hbox{ in $\Omega$}, \\ u =0 & \quad \hbox{ on $\partial…

In this paper we explore finite rank perturbations of unilateral weighted shifts $W_\alpha$. First, we prove that the subnormality of $W_\alpha$ is never stable under nonzero finite rank pertrubations unless the perturbation occurs at the…

The coexistence of superconducting and charge-density-wave order in the half-filled attractive Hubbard model is interpreted as a consequence of the pseudospin SU(2) symmetry spontaneously broken to a `hidden' subgroup U(1). By topological…

We discuss classical and quantum symmetries of extended Hubbard models. The quantum symmetries are shown to be related to the known superconducting SU(2) symmetry of the original Hubbard model at half filling via generalized Lang-Firsov…

We characterize joint k-hyponormality for 2-variable weighted shifts. Using this characterization we construct a family of examples which establishes and illustrates the gap between k-hyponormality and (k+1)-hyponormality for each k>=1. As…

We study cusped Wilson line operators in the Abelian Higgs model in $ d = 4 - \epsilon $ at large external charges. Using a double-scaling limit $ Q \to \infty $, $ \epsilon \to 0 $ with $ Q\epsilon $ fixed, we develop a semiclassical…

We say that a weighted shift $W_\alpha$ with (positive) weight sequence $\alpha: \alpha_0, \alpha_1, \ldots$ is {\it moment infinitely divisible} (MID) if, for every $t > 0$, the shift with weight sequence $\alpha^t: \alpha_0^t, \alpha_1^t,…

We investigate a two parameter quantum deformation of the universal enveloping orthosymplectic superalgebra U(osp(2/2)) by extending the Faddeev-Reshetikhin-Takhtajan formalism to the supersymetric case. It is shown that $U_{p,q}(osp(2/2))$…
