Using representation theory techniques we prove that various spaces of derivations or one-sided multipliers over certain operator algebras are reflexive. A sample result: any bounded local derivation (local left multiplier) on an…

We discuss the reflexivity of hyperexpansions and their Cauchy dual operators. In particular, we show that any cyclic completely hyperexpansive operator is reflexive. We also establish the reflexivity of the Cauchy dual of an arbitrary…

An example due to Pisier shows that two commuting, completely polynomially bounded Hilbert space operators may not be simultaneously similar to contractions. Thus, while each operator is individually similar to a contraction, the pair is…

The notion of isometric and unitary asymptotes was introduced for power bounded operators in 1989 and was generalized in 2016--2019 by K\'erchy. In particular, it was shown that there exist operators without unitary asymptote. In this paper…

In this paper, we introduce a $3$-Brownian shift $T_{\sigma, \theta}$ on the Hilbert space $H^2(\mathbb D^2)\oplus H^2(\mathbb D)\oplus \mathbb C,$ which is a natural extension of the classical Brownian shift $B_{\sigma, \theta}$ on…

Let $A$ and $B$ be compact operators over a topological space $X$ and suppose that these operators are normal and have same distinct eigenvalues at each point. By obstruction theory, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for $A$…

When is the collection of $\mathsf S$-Toeplitz operators with respect to a tuple of commuting bounded operators $\mathsf S= (S_1, S_2, \ldots , S_{d-1}, P)$, which has the symmetrized polydisc as a spectral set, non-trivial? The answer is…

The aim of this paper is to study $ m $-isometric weighted shifts with operator weights (both unilateral and bilateral). We obtain a characterization of such shifts by polynomials with operator coefficients. The procedure of construction of…

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…

We characterize matrix-valued asymmetric truncated Toeplitz operators (which are compressions of multiplication operators acting between two possibly different model spaces) by using compressed shifts, modified compressed shifts and shift…

In this paper, we study closed densely defined unbounded truncated Toeplitz operators on model space, where u is an inner function, that commute with modified compressed shifts. The work also establishes properties related to their…

Given a Banach space X and a bounded linear operator T on X, a subspace Y of X is almost invariant under T if TY is a subspace of Y+F for some finite-dimensional ``error'' F. In this paper, we study subspaces that are almost invariant under…

Let $M_{z}$ be the multiplication operator on the Bergman space and $M_{I}$ denote the restriction of $M_{z}$ to an invariant subspace $I$. A question raised by K. Zhu is that when are two restriction operators $M_{I}$ and $M_{J}$ are…

This paper proves two theorems. The first of these simplifies and lends clarity to the previous characterizations of the invariant subspaces of $S$, the operator of multiplication by the coordinate function $z$, on…

A linear operator $U$ acting boundedly on an infinite-dimensional separable complex Hilbert space $H$ is universal if every linear bounded operator acting on $H$ is similar to a scalar multiple of a restriction of $U$ to one of its…

We explore commutativity up to a factor, $AB=\lambda BA$, for bounded operators in a complex Hilbert space. Conditions on the possible values of the factor $\lambda$ are formulated and shown to depend on spectral properties of the operators…

We obtain a complete characterization for doubly commuting mixed invariant subspaces of the Hardy space over the unit polydisc. We say a closed subspace $\mathcal{Q}$ of $H^2(\mathbb{D}^n)$ is mixed invariant if $M_{z_{j}}(\mathcal{Q})…

We show that (as conjectured by Lin and Wang) when a Vassiliev invariant of type $m$ is evaluated on a knot projection having $n$ crossings, the result is bounded by a constant times $n^m$. Thus the well known analogy between Vassiliev…

We show that a bounded quasinilpotent operator $T$ acting on an infinite dimensional Banach space has an invariant subspace if and only if there exists a rank one operator $F$ and a scalar $\alpha\in\mathbb{C}$, $\alpha\neq 0$, $\alpha\neq…

We introduce generalized multipliers for left-invertible analytic operators. We show that they form a Banach algebra and characterize the commutant of such operators in its terms. In the special case, we describe the commutant of balanced…
