These are some notes I wrote for the summer school "Symbolic dynamics and homeomorphisms of the Cantor set" at the University of Copenhagen, 23 - 27 June 2008. The notes contain the definition of the C*-algebra associated to a shift space…

In this work we study Schatten-von Neumann classes of tensor products of invariant operators on Hilbert spaces. In the first part we first deduce some spectral properties for tensors of anharmonic oscillators thanks to the knowledge on…

The property of being shift invariant and being reflexive or transitive in the case of the space of (asymmetric) truncated Toeplitz operators, and the space of (asymmetric) dual truncated operators is investigated. Most of the results…

The Invariant Subspace Problem (ISP) for Hilbert spaces asks if every bounded linear operator has a non-trivial closed invariant subspace. Due to the existence of universal operators (in the sense of Rota) the ISP can be solved by proving…

We study expansions of Hilbert spaces with a bounded normal operator $T$. We axiomatize this theory in a natural language and identify all of its completions. We prove the definability of the adjoint $T^*$ and prove quantifier elimination…

We use shift-invariant subspaces of the Hardy space on the bidisk to provide an elementary proof of the Agler Decomposition Theorem. We observe that these shift-invariant subspaces are specific cases of Hilbert spaces that can be defined…

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.

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…

We prove a Hankel-variant commutant lifting theorem. This also uncovers the complete structure of the Beurling-type reducing and invariant subspaces of Hankel operators. Kernel spaces of Hankel operators play a key role in the analysis.

For classical dynamical systems time operators are introduced as selfadjoint operators satisfying the so called weak Weyl relation with the unitary groups of time evolution. Dynamical systems with time operators are intrinsically…

In this paper we develop the method of double operator integrals to prove trace formulae for functions of contractions, dissipative operators, unitary operators and self-adjoint operators. To establish the absolute continuity of spectral…

We prove the Invariant Subspace Conjecture for separable Hilbert spaces.

In this paper, we explore the construction and dynamical properties of $\mathcal{S}$-limited shifts. An $S$-limited shift is a subshift defined on a finite alphabet $\mathcal{A} = \{1, \ldots,p\}$ by a set $\mathcal{S} = \{S_1, \ldots,…

We study operator spaces, operator algebras, and operator modules, from the point of view of the `noncommutative Shilov boundary'. In this attempt to utilize some `noncommutative Choquet theory', we find that Hilbert C$^*-$modules and their…

This tutorial paper presents a survey of results, both classical and new, linking inner functions and operator theory. Topics discussed include invariant subspaces, universal operators, Hankel and Toeplitz operators, model spaces, truncated…

Let $T\in B(\mathcal{H})$ be an invertible operator. From the 1940's, Gelfand, Hille and Wermer investigated the invariant subspaces of $T$ by analyzing the growth of $\|T^n\|$, where $n\in \mathbb{Z}$. In this paper, we study the invariant…

The moduli space of stable pairs on a local surface $X=K_S$ is in general non-compact. The action of $\mathbb{C}^*$ on the fibres of $X$ induces an action on the moduli space and the stable pair invariants of $X$ are defined by the virtual…

We present a detailed survey of recent developments in the study of the finite Hilbert transform and its corresponding inversion problem in rearrangement invariant spaces on $(-1,1)$.

The study of operator algebras on Hilbert spaces, and C*-algebras in particular, is one of the most active areas within Functional Analysis. A natural generalization of these is to replace Hilbert spaces (which are $L^2$-spaces) with…

Let $X=(X(n))_{n \in \mathbb{Z_+}}$ be a standard subproduct system of $C^*$-correspondences over a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal M.$ Assume $T=(T_n)_{n \in \mathbb{Z_+}}$ to be a pure completely contractive, covariant representation of $X$ on a…
