We investigate the Hardy space $H^1_L$ associated with a self-adjoint operator $L$ defined in a general setting in [S. Hofmann, et. al., Hardy spaces associated to non-negative self-adjoint operators satisfying Davies-Gaffney estimates,…

Using the tools of Sz.-Nagy--Foias theory of contractions, we describe in detail the invariant subspaces of the operator $ S\oplus S^* $, where $ S $ is the unilateral shift on a Hilbert space. This answers a question of C\^amara and Ross.

A necessary and sufficient condition for an inner function F in the upper half-plane (UHP) to satisfy F = E*/E where E is a de Branges function is presented. Since F_E =E^*/E is an inner function for any de Branges function E, and the map…

We obtain orthogonal decompositions for de Branges-Rovnyak spaces $\H\left( \tfrac {I^n(1+I)}{2}\right)$ and $\H\left( \tfrac {I(1+I^2)}{2}\right)$, where $I$ is an inner function. We also discuss the problem of cyclicity for these spaces.

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…

The purpose of this note is to show that, if $\mcB$ is a uniformly convex Banach, then the dual space $\mcB'$ has a "Hilbert space representation" (defined in the paper), that makes $\mcB$ much closer to a Hilbert space then previously…

Operators of multiplication by independent variables on the space of square summable functions over the torus and its Hardy subspace are considered. Invariant subspaces where the operators are compatible are described.

Let $S$ be the shift operator on the Hardy space $H^2$ and let $S^*$ be its adjoint. A closed subspace $\FF$ of $H^2$ is said to be nearly $S^*$-invariant if every element $f\in\FF$ with $f(0)=0$ satisfies $S^*f\in\FF$. In particular, the…

Let $S_{E}$ be the shift operator on vector-valued Hardy space $H_{E}^{2}.$ Beurling-Lax-Halmos Theorem identifies the invariant subspaces of $S_{E}$ and hence also the invariant subspaces of the backward shift $S_{E}^{\ast}.$ In this…

We represent closed subspaces of the Hardy space that are invariant under finite-rank perturbations of the backward shift. We apply this to classify almost invariant subspaces of the backward shift and represent a more refined version of…

Let $L_1$ be a nonnegative self-adjoint operator in $L^2({\mathbb R}^n)$ satisfying the Davies-Gaffney estimates and $L_2$ a second order divergence form elliptic operator with complex bounded measurable coefficients. A typical example of…

We characterize the contractions that are similar to the backward shift in the Hardy space $H^2$. This characterization is given in terms of the geometry of the eigenvector bundles of the operators.

Let $L$ be a one-to-one operator of type $\omega$ having a bounded $H_\infty$ functional calculus and satisfying the $k$-Davies-Gaffney estimates with $k\in{\mathbb N}$. In this paper, the authors introduce the weak Hardy space…

Let T be a C_{\cdot 0}-contraction on a Hilbert space H and S be a non-trivial closed subspace of H. We prove that S is a T-invariant subspace of H if and only if there exists a Hilbert space D and a partially isometric operator \Pi :…

We extend the de Branges-Rovnyak model for completely non-coisometric (CNC) linear contractions on a Hilbert space to the non-commutative multivariate setting of CNC row contractions. Namely, we show that any CNC contraction from several…

We prove that the norm of a weighted composition operator on the Hardy space H^2 of the disk is controlled by the norm of the weight function in the de Branges-Rovnyak space associated to the symbol of the composition operator. As a…

For a class of de Branges spaces containing polynomials, sufficient and necessary conditions are given for the boundedness and compactness of the Hausdorff operators under consideration. For the Paly-Wiener spaces we reduce the study of our…
