In this article we discuss a few spectral properties of a paranormal closed operator (not necessarily bounded) defined in a Hilbert space. This class contains closed symmetric operators. First we show that the spectrum of such an operator…

In this paper we study operators of the form $M(\phi)=T(\phi)+H(\phi)$ where $T(\phi)$ and $H(\phi)$ are the Toeplitz and Hankel operators acting on $H^p(\T)$ with generating function $\phi\in L^\iy(\T)$. It turns out that $M(\phi)$ is…

We prove that in the setting of operator spaces the result of Davis, Figiel, Johnson and Pelczynski on factoring weakly compact operators holds accordingly. Though not related directly to the main theorem we add a remark on the description…

Let A be a unital simple separable C*-algebra with strict comparison of positive elements. We prove that the Cuntz semigroup of A is recovered functorially from the Murray-von Neumann semigroup and the tracial state space T(A) whenever the…

A Hilbert space operator $T\in B$ is $(m,P)$-expansive, for some positive integer $m$ and operator $P\in B$, if $\sum_{j=0}^m{(-1)^j\left(\begin{array}{clcr}m\\j\end{array}\right)T^{*j}PT^j}\leq 0$. No Drazin invertible operator $T$ can be…

The main result of the paper is an extension of the Dirichlet problem from (closures of) bounded open domains U to arbitrary compact subsets X of the complex plane, i.e. the closure of the corresponding space of functions which are harmonic…

Let T:=[T_1,..., T_n] be an n-tuple of operators on a Hilbert space such that T is a completely non-coisometric row contraction. We establish the existence of a "one-to-one" correspondence between the joint invariant subspaces under…

Let $A$ be a, not necessarily closed, linear relation in a Hilbert space $\sH$ with a multivalued part $\mul A$. An operator $B$ in $\sH$ with $\ran B\perp\mul A^{**}$ is said to be an operator part of $A$ when $A=B \hplus (\{0\}\times \mul…

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…

We introduce a notion of joint spectrum for a tuple of compact operators on a separable Hilbert space and show that in many situations these operators commute if and only if the joint spectrum consists of countably many, locally finite,…

Let f(t,X) be an irreducible polynomial over the field of rational functions k(t), where k is a number field. Let O be the ring of integers of k. Hilbert's irreducibility theorem gives infinitely many integral specializations of t to values…

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…

An operator T on Hilbert space is a 3-isometry if there exists operators B and D such that (T*)^n T^n = I+nB +n^2 D. An operator J is a Jordan operator if it the sum of a unitary U and nilpotent N of order two which commute. If T is a…

For a normalized root system $R$ in $\mathbb R^N$ and a multiplicity function $k\geq 0$ let $\mathbf N=N+\sum_{\alpha \in R} k(\alpha)$. Denote by $dw(\mathbf x)=\prod_{\alpha\in R}|\langle \mathbf x,\alpha\rangle|^{k(\alpha)}\, d\mathbf x…

Finite rank perturbations $T=N+K$ of a bounded normal operator $N$ on a separable Hilbert space are studied thanks to a natural functional model of $T$; in its turn the functional model solely relies on a perturbation matrix/ characteristic…

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…

A group is irreducibly represented if it has a faithful irreducible unitary representation. For countable groups, a criterion for irreducible representability is given, which generalises a result obtained for finite groups by W. Gasch\"utz…

we start the study of Schur analysis in the quaternionic setting using the theory of slice hyperholomorphic functions. The novelty of our approach is that slice hyperholomorphic functions allows to write realizations in terms of a suitable…

Assume that $Au=f,\quad (1)$ is a solvable linear equation in a Hilbert space $H$, $A$ is a linear, closed, densely defined, unbounded operator in $H$, which is not boundedly invertible, so problem (1) is ill-posed. It is proved that the…

Four possible definitions of the commutation relation $[S,T]=\Id$ of two closable unbounded operators $S,T$ are compared. The {\em weak} sense of this commutator is given in terms of the inner product of the Hilbert space $\H$ where the…
