We introduce the notion of a contractible subshift. This is a strengthening of the notion of strong irreducibility, where we require that the gluings are given by a block map. We show that a subshift is a retract of a full shift if and only…
In this paper we investigate operators unitarily equivalent to truncated Toeplitz operators. We show that this class contains certain sums of tensor products of truncated Toeplitz operators. In particular, it contains arbitrary inflations…
Multidimensional contractions of irreducible representations of the Cayley-Klein unitary algebras in the Gel'fand-Zetlin basis are considered. Contracted over different parameters, algebras can turn out to be isomorphic. In this case method…
This dissertation summarizes my investigations in operator theory during my PhD studies. The first chapter is an introduction to that field of operator theory which was developed by B. Sz.-Nagy and C. Foias, the theory of power-bounded…
Based on a careful analysis of functional models for contractive multi-analytic operators we establish a one-to-one correspondence between unitary equivalence classes of minimal contractive liftings of a row contraction and injective…
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.
This paper advances a line of research in fixed point theory initiated by M. Bessenyei and Z. P\'ales, building on their introduction of the triangle function concept in [J. Nonlinear Convex Anal, Vol 18 (3), 515-524 (2017)]. By applying…
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 study completely non-unitary contractions $T$ with finite dimensional defect spaces $\mathcal{D}_T$ and $\mathcal{D}_{T^*}$. We present a complete classification of all such contractions $T$ that satisfy a generalized property of Hardy…
Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space $H$ such that \[ \alpha[T^*,T]:=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \alpha_n T^{*n}T^n\ge 0. \] where $\alpha(t)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \alpha_n t^n$ is a suitable analytic function in the unit disc…
We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A universal contraction may be irreducible or a direct sum of…
All linear operators $L:\mathcal{C}[z]\to \mathcal{C}[z]$ which decrease the diameter of the zero set of any $P\in\mathcal{C}[z]$ are found.
A theorem of Davis, Figiel, Johnson and Pe{\l}czy\'nski tells us that weakly-compact operators between Banach spaces factor through reflexive Banach spaces. The machinery underlying this result is that of the real interpolation method,…
We make a progress towards describing the semi-commutants of Toeplitz operators on Fock-Sobolev spaces of nonnegative orders. We generalize the results in \cite{Bauer1,Qin}. For the certain symbol spaces, we obtain two Toeplitz operators…
A commuting triple of Hilbert space operators $(A,B,P)$, for which the closed tetrablock $\overline{\mathbb E}$ is a spectral set, is called a \textit{tetrablock-contraction} or simply an $\mathbb E$-\textit{contraction}, where \[ \mathbb…
It was recently proved that in some special cases asymmetric truncated Toeplitz operators can be characterized in terms of compressed shifts and rank-two operators of special form. In this paper we show that such characterizations hold in…
We characterize the commutant of the analytic Toeplitz operators modulo operators of Schatten-p-class on suitable multivariable domains. We show that a result of J. Xia on compact perturbations of Toeplitz operators on the unit disc remains…
We consider three problems connected with coinvariant subspaces of the backward shift operator in Hardy spaces $H^p$: 1) properties of truncated Toeplitz operators; 2) Carleson-type embedding theorems for the coinvariant subspaces; 3)…
The role of curvature in relation with Lie algebra contractions of the pseudo-ortogonal algebras so(p,q) is fully described by considering some associated symmetrical homogeneous spaces of constant curvature within a Cayley-Klein framework.…
The dimension of any module over an algebra of affiliated operators ${\mathcal U}$ of a finite von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal A}$ is defined using a trace on ${\mathcal A}.$ All zero-dimensional ${\mathcal U}$-modules constitute the torsion…
