Given a row contraction of operators on Hilbert space and a family of projections on the space which stabilize the operators, we show there is a unique minimal joint dilation to a row contraction of partial isometries which satisfy natural…

For $0<r<1$, let us consider the following annulus: \[ \mathbb A_r= \{ z\in \mathbb C\, : \, r<|z|<1 \}. \] A Hilbert space operator $T$ for which $\overline{\mathbb A}_r$ is a spectral set is called an $\mathbb A_r$-\textit{contraction}.…

Let $A = (A_1, \ldots, A_n)$ and $B = (B_1, \ldots, B_n)$ be row contractions on $\mathcal{H}_1$ and $\mathcal{H}_2$, respectively, and $X$ be a row operator from $\oplus_{i=1}^n \mathcal{H}_2$ to $\mathcal{H}_1$. Let $D_{A^*} = (I - A…

We develop a dilation theory for row contractions subject to constraints determined by sets of noncommutative polynomials. Under natural conditions on the constraints, we have uniqueness for the minimal dilation. A characteristic function…

We study the interaction between unitary $\rho$-dilations of a pair of Hilbert space operators and Birkhoff-James orthogonality. We prove that for two orthogonal operators $T,A$ if $\|T\|=\rho$, then $U_T \perp_B U_A$ for any unitary…

Given a contraction A on a Hilbert space H, an operator T on H is said to be A-invariant if <Tx,x>=<TAx,Ax> for every x in H such that ||Ax||=||x||. In the special case in which both defect indices of A are equal to 1, we show that every…

There are several proofs of the classical commutant lifting and intertwining lifting theorems in the literature. In this article, we present analogous proofs to a few $Q$-commuting lifting and $Q$-intertwining lifting theorems. We provide…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and let $\big\{A_{n}\big\}_{n\geq 1}$ be a sequence of bounded linear operators on $\mathcal{H}$. Then a bounded operator $B$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{K} \supseteq \mathcal{H}$ is said to be…

The explicit constructions of minimal isometric, and minimal unitary dilations of an arbitrary linear pencil of operators $T(\lambda)=T_0+\lambda T_1$ consisting of contractions on a separable Hilbert space for $|\lambda |=1$, which…

A commuting pair of operators (S, P) on a Hilbert space H is said to be a Gamma-contraction if the symmetrized bidisc is a spectral set of the tuple (S, P). In this paper we develop some operator theory inspired by Agler and Young's results…

We obtain a factorization of the characteristic function of a contractive two-step iterated lifting in terms of the characteristic functions of constituent liftings of the iterated lifting and the Julia-Halmos matrix. We also give an…

We find an explicit tetrablock isometric dilation for every member $(A_\alpha, B, P)$ of a family of tetrablock contractions indexed by a parameter $\alpha$ in the closed unit disc (only the first operator of the tetrablock contraction…

One of the most important results in operator theory is And\^o's \cite{ando} generalization of dilation theory for a single contraction to a pair of commuting contractions acting on a Hilbert space. While there are two explicit…

We study intertwining operator algebras introduced and constructed by Huang. In the case that the intertwining operator algebras involve intertwining operators among irreducible modules for their vertex operator subalgebras, a number of…

(1) Let $A$ be an operator on a space ${\cal H}$ of even finite dimension. Then for some decomposition ${\cal H}={\cal F}\oplus{\cal F}^{\perp}$, the compressions of $A$ onto ${\cal F}$ and ${\cal F}^{\perp}$ are unitarily equivalent. (2)…

We present a set-theoretic version of some basic dilation results of operator theory. The results we have considered are Wold decomposition, Halmos dilation, Sz. Nagy dilation, inter-twining lifting, commuting and non-commuting dilations,…

For a contraction P and a bounded commutant S of P, we seek a solution X of the operator equation S-S*P = (I-P*P)^1/2 X(I-P*P) 1/2, where X is a bounded operator on Ran(I-P*P) 1/2 with numerical radius of X being not greater than 1. A pair…

There are two natural definitions of the Julia set for complex H\'enon maps: the sets $J$ and $J^\star$. Whether these two sets are always equal is one of the main open questions in the field. We prove equality when the map acts…

We prove a new universal identity for umbral operators. This motivates the definition of a subclass satisfying a simplified identity, which we fully characterize. The results are illustrated with common examples of the theory of umbral…

In this paper we give a unified proof of the fact that the Julia set of Newton's method applied to a holomorphic function of the complex plane (a polynomial of degree large than $1$ or an entire transcendental function) is connected. The…
