Let $T:D(T)\rightarrow H_2$ be a densely defined closed operator with domain $D(T)\subset H_1$. We say $T$ to be absolutely minimum attaining if for every closed subspace $M$ of $H_1$, the restriction operator $T|_M:D(T)\cap M\rightarrow…
A truncated Toeplitz operator is the compression $A_{\phi}:\K_{\Theta} \to \K_{\Theta}$ of a Toeplitz operator $T_{\phi}:H^2\to H^2$ to a model space $\K_{\Theta} := H^2 \ominus \Theta H^2$. For $\Theta$ inner, let $\T_{\Theta}$ denote the…
We develop a Clark theory for commuting compressed shift operators on model spaces $K_{\phi}$ associated with inner functions $\phi$ on the bidisk, which exhibits both similarities and marked differences compared to the classical…
The Hardy operator has all the monomial functions as eigenvectors. We study bounded operators on L^2 that take monomial functions to multiples of other monomials, with a shifted exponent. We prove that they all leave the space of functions…
We consider truncated Toeplitz operator on nearly invariant subspaces of the Hardy space $H^2$. Of some importance in this context is the boundary behavior of the functions in these spaces which we will discuss in some detail.
Successive differences on a sequence of data help to discover some smoothness features of this data. This was one of the main reasons for rewriting the classical interpolation formula in terms of such data differences. The aim of this paper…
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 combine tools from pluripotential theory and commutative algebra to study singularity invariants of plurisubharmonic functions. We establish several relationships between the singularity invariants of plurisubharmonic…
A bounded linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space is said to be homogeneous if $\varphi(T)$ is unitarily equivalent to $T$ for all $\varphi$ in the group M\"{o}b of bi-holomorphic automorphisms of the unit disc. A projective unitary…
In this note, we develop a parallel theory of the classical Sz.-Nagy--Foias dilation and model theory for a single contraction operator in the setting of pairs of \em{{$q$-commuting}} contraction operators for a unimodular complex number…
We prove Szeg\H{o}-type trace asymptotics for translation-invariant operators on polygons. More precisely, consider a Fourier multiplier $A=\mathcal{F}^\ast \sigma \mathcal{F}$ on $\mathsf{L}^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$ with a sufficiently decaying,…
We describe the proper closed invariant subspaces of the integration operator when it acts continuously on countable intersections and countable unions of weighted Banach spaces of holomorphic functions on the unit disc or the complex…
This article concerns the study of a new invariant bilinear form $\mathcal B$ on the space of automorphic forms of a split reductive group $G$ over a function field. We define $\mathcal B$ using the asymptotics maps from…
For an operator $A$ on a complex Banach space $X$ and a closed subspace $M\subseteq X$, the local commutant of $A$ at $M$ is the set $C(A;M)$ of all operators $T$ on $X$ such that $TAx=ATx$ for every $x\in M$. It is clear that $ C(A;M)$ is…
We consider contractive operators $T$ that are trace class perturbations of a unitary operator $U$. We prove that the dimension functions of the absolutely continuous spectrum of $T$, $T^*$ and of $U$ coincide. In particular, if $U$ has a…
We study jointly quasinormal and spherically quasinormal pairs of commuting operators on Hilbert space, as well as their powers. We first prove that, up to a constant multiple, the only jointly quasinormal $2$-variable weighted shift is the…
This article describes Hilbert spaces contractively contained in certain reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of analytic functions on the open unit disc which are nearly invariant under division by an inner function. We extend Hitt's theorem…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of contractive operators and strongly continuous semigroups on separable Hilbert spaces using the notion of rigidity. In particular, we show that a "typical" contraction $T$ contains the unit circle times…
We previously introduced the class of DT--operators, which are modeled by certain upper triangular random matrices, and showed that if the spectrum of a DT-operator is not reduced to a single point, then it has a nontrivial, closed,…
We define $\Delta$-equivalence for dual operator systems and prove that it is an equivalence relation. We show that weak TRO-equivalence of dual operator spaces induces a stable isomorphism between them which is given by multiplication with…
