A criterion on the similarity of a (bounded, linear) operator $T$ on a (complex, separable) Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ in terms of shift-type invariant subspaces of $T$ to a contraction of class $C_{\cdot 0}$ with finite unequal defects is…

If T is a multiplicity-free contraction of class C_0 with minimal function m_T, then it is quasisimilar to the Jordan block S(m_T). In case m_T is a Blaschke product with simple roots forming a Carleson sequence, we show that the relation…

The question if polynomially bounded operator is similar to a contraction was posed by Halmos and was answered in the negative by Pisier. His counterexample is an operator of infinite multiplicity, while all its restrictions on invariant…

We prove affirmatively the one dimensional case of a conjecture of Stein regarding the $L^p$-boundedness of the Polynomial Carleson operator, for $1<p<\infty$. The proof is based on two new ideas: i) developing a framework for…

A particular case of [07] was generalized from contractions to polynomially bounded operators in [G19]. Namely, it is proved in [G19] that if the unitary asymptote of a polynomially bounded operator $T$ contains the bilateral shift of…

A particular case of results from [K2] is as follows. Let the unitary asymptote of a contraction $T$ contain the bilateral shift (of finite or infinite multiplicity). Then there exists an invariant subspace $\mathcal M$ of $T$ such that…

It is proved recently by Benamara-Nikolski that a contraction having finite defects and spectrum not filling in the closed unit disc, is similar to a normal operator if and only if it has the so-called linear resolvent growth property. We…

Let $T$ be an absolutely continuous polynomially bounded operator, and let $\theta$ be a singular inner function. It is shown that if $\theta(T)$ is invertible and some additional conditions are fulfilled, then $T$ has nontrivial…

Let $\eps >0$. We prove that there exists an operator $T_\eps:\ell_2\to\ell_2$, such that for any polynomial $P$ we have $\|{P(T)}\| \leq(1+\eps)\|{P}\|_\infty$, but which is not similar to a contraction, {\it i.e.} there does not exist an…

Given two multiplicity-free operators $T_1$ and $T_2$ of class $C_0$ having the same finite Blaschke product as minimal function, the operator algebras $H^\infty(T_1)$ and $H^\infty(T_2)$ are isomorphic and $T_1$ is similar to $T_2$. We…

For a power bounded or polynomially bounded operator $T$ sufficient conditions for the existence of a nontrivial hyperinvariant subspace are given. The obtained hyperinvariant subspaces of $T$ have the form of the closure of the range of…

We investigate whether almost weak stability of an operator $T$ on a Banach space $X$ implies its almost weak polynomial stability. We show, using a modified version of the van der Corput Lemma that if $X$ is a Hilbert space and $T$ a…

Let T and C be two Hilbert space operators. We prove that if T is near, in a certain sense, to an operator completely polynomially dominated with a finite bound by C, then T is similar to an operator which is completely polynomially…

The simplest and most natural examples of completely nonunitary contractions on separable complex Hilbert spaces which have polynomial characteristic functions are the nilpotent operators. The main purpose of this paper is to prove the…

If $T$ is a polynomially bounded operator, $\mathcal M$ is an invariant subspace of $T$, $T|_{\mathcal M}$ is a unilateral shift and $T^*|_{\mathcal M^\perp}$ is subnormal, then $T$ has a nontrivial hyperinvariant subspace. If an operator…

We prove the $L^p$-boundedness, $1<p<\infty$, of the Polynomial Carleson operator in general dimension. This follows the author's resolution of the one dimensional case as well as the work of Zorin-Kranich on the higher dimensional case in…

For a sequence of complex numbers $\Lambda$ we consider the restriction operator $R_{\Lambda}$ defined on Paley-Wiener spaces $PW_{\tau}^{p}$ ($1<p<\infty$). Lyubarskii and Seip gave necessary and sufficient conditions on $\Lambda$ for…

In this paper, we are concerned with conditions under which $[p(T)]^*=\bar{p}(T^*)$, where $p(z)$ is a one-variable complex polynomial, and $T$ is an unbounded, densely defined, and linear operator. Then, we deal with the validity of the…
