In the setting of operators on Hilbert spaces, we prove that every quasinilpotent operator has a non-trivial closed invariant subspace if and only if every pair of idempotents with a quasinilpotent commutator has a non-trivial common closed…
Let $\Delta$ be a closed, cocompact subgroup of $G \times \widehat{G}$, where $G$ is a second countable, locally compact abelian group. Using localization of Hilbert $C^*$-modules, we show that the Heisenberg module…
We present some old and new results on a class of invariant spaces of holomorphic functions on symmetric domains, both in their circular bounded realizations and in their unbounded realizations as Siegel domains of type II. These spaces…
A function which is analytic and bounded in the Unit disk is called a generator for the Hardy space or the Bergman space if polynomials in that function are dense in the corresponding space. We characterize generators in terms of sub-spaces…
A 2-Hilbert space is a category with structures and properties analogous to those of a Hilbert space. More precisely, we define a 2-Hilbert space to be an abelian category enriched over Hilb with a *-structure, conjugate-linear on the…
The Invariant Subspace Problem ("ISP") for Hilbert space operators is known to be equivalent to a question that, on its surface, seems surprisingly concrete: For composition operators induced on the Hardy space H^2 by hyperbolic…
This paper begins the study of infinite-dimensional modules defined on bicomplex numbers. It generalizes a number of results obtained with finite-dimensional bicomplex modules. The central concept introduced is the one of a bicomplex…
The notion of faithful flatness of a module over a commutative ring is studied for two $R$-modules $M$ arising in functional analysis, where $R$ is a Banach algebra and $M$ is a Hilbert space. The following results are shown: If $X$ is a…
Let $G/H$ be a semisimple symmetric space. Then the space $L^2(G/H)$ can be decomposed into a finite sum of series representations induced from parabolic subgroups of $G$. The most continuous part of the spectrum of $L^2(G/H)$ is the part…
This paper characterises the subspaces of $H^2(\mathbb D)$ simultaneously invariant under $S^2 $ and $S^{2k+1}$, where $S$ is the unilateral shift, then further identifies the subspaces that are nearly invariant under both $(S^2)^*$ and…
The thesis is devoted to two related problems. 1. The isomorphism problem for analytic discs: Suppose $V$ is the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ embedded in the $d$-dimensional unit ball $\mathbb{B}_d$ and attached to the unit sphere. Consider the…
For any real $\beta$ let $H^2_\beta$ be the Hardy-Sobolev space on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$. $H^2_\beta$ is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space and its reproducing kernel is bounded when $\beta>1/2$. In this paper, we characterize that for…
A finitely-additive measure $\lambda $ on an infinite-dimensional real Hilbert space $E$ which is invariant with respect to shifts and orthogonal mappings has been defined. This measure can be considered as the analog of the Lebesgue…
Let $\{T(t)\}_{t\geq0}$ be a $C_0$-semigroup on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space; a suitable definition of near $\{T(t)^*\}_{t\geq0}$ invariance of a subspace is presented in this paper. A series of prototypical examples for…
By analytic perturbations, we refer to shifts that are finite rank perturbations of the form $M_z + F$, where $M_z$ is the unilateral shift and $F$ is a finite rank operator on the Hardy space over the open unit disc. Here shift refers to…
A refined notion of curvature for a linear system of Hermitian vector spaces, in the sense of Grothendieck, leads to the unitary classification of a large class of analytic Hilbert modules. Specifically, we study Hilbert sub-modules, for…
Let $C_\varphi$ be a composition operator acting on the Hardy space of the unit disc $H^p$ ($1\leq p < \infty$), which is embedded in a $C_0$-semigroup of composition operators $\mathcal{T}=(C_{\varphi_t})_{t\geq 0}.$ We investigate whether…
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a Hilbert space and $H^2_{\mathcal{E}}(\mathbb{D})$ be the $\mathcal{E}$-valued Hardy space over the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ in $\mathbb{C}$. The well known Beurling-Lax-Halmos theorem states that every shift invariant…
The composition operator $C_{\phi_a}f=f\circ\phi_a$ on the Hardy-Hilbert space $H^2(\mathbb{D})$ with affine symbol $\phi_a(z)=az+1-a$ and $0<a<1$ has the property that the Invariant Subspace Problem for complex separable Hilbert spaces…
The full Fock space over $\mathbb C ^d$ can be identified with the free Hardy space, $H^2 (\mathbb B ^d _\mathbb N)$ - the unique non-commutative reproducing kernel Hilbert space corresponding to a non-commutative Szeg\"{o} kernel on the…
