We consider sequences in a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ of the form $(T^nf_0)_{n\in I},$ with a linear operator $T$, the index set being either $I = \mathbb N$ or $I = \mathbb Z$, a vector $f_0\in \mathcal H$, and answer the following two…

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…

Sz.-Nagy's famous theorem states that a bounded operator $T$ which acts on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is similar to a unitary operator if and only if $T$ is invertible and both $T$ and $T^{-1}$ are power bounded. There is an…

Flag kernels are tempered distributions which generalize these of Calderon-Zygmund type. For any homogeneous group $\mathbb{G}$ the class of operators which acts on $L^{2}(\mathbb{G})$ by convolution with a flag kernel is closed under…

Let $\lambda$ be a complex number in the closed unit disc $\overline{\Bbb D}$, and $\cal H$ be a separable Hilbert space with the orthonormal basis, say, ${\cal E}=\{e_n:n=0,1,2,\cdots\}$. A bounded operator $T$ on $\cal H$ is called a {\em…

Let $E$ and $F$ be Hilbert $C^*$-modules over a $C^*$-algebra $\CAlg{A}$. New classes of (possibly unbounded) operators $t:E\to F$ are introduced and investigated. Instead of the density of the domain $\Def(t)$ we only assume that $t$ is…

For a positive and invertible linear operator $T$ acting on a $C^*$-algebra, we give necessary and sufficient criteria for the inverse operator $T^{-1}$ to be positive, too. Moreover, a simple counterexample shows that $T^{-1}$ need not be…

It is shown that a positive (bounded linear) operator on a Hilbert space with trivial kernel is unitarily equivalent to a Hankel operator that satisfies double positivity condition if and only if it is non-invertible and has simple spectrum…

In this note we investigate the operators associated with frame sequences in a Hilbert space $H$, i.e., the synthesis operator $T:\ell ^{2}(\mathbb{N}) \to H$, the analysis operator $T^{\ast}:H\to $ $% \ell ^{2}(\mathbb{N}) $ and the…

Criteria for an algebraic operator $T$ on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ to be unitary are established. The main one is written in terms of the convergence of sequences of the form $\{\|T^nh\|\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ with $h\in…

Let T be a bounded operator on a Hilbert space H, and F = {f_j: j in J} an at most countable set of vectors in H. In this note, we characterize the pairs {T, F} such that {T^n f: f in F, n in I} form a frame of H, for the cases of I = N_0…

We establish a general operator parallelogram law concerning a characterization of inner product spaces, get an operator extension of Bohr's inequality and present several norm inequalities. More precisely, let ${\mathfrak A}$ be a…

The simplest and most natural examples of completely nonunitary contractions on separable complex Hilbert spaces which have polynomial characteristic functions are the nilpotent operators. The main purpose of this paper is to prove the…

On finite dimensional spaces, it is apparent that an operator is the product of two positive operators if and only if it is similar to a positive operator. Here, the class ${\mathcal L}^{+2}$ of bounded operators on separable infinite…

We consider, in a Hilbert space $H$, the convolution integro-differential equation $u''(t)-h*Au(t)=f(t)$, $0\le t\le T$, $h*v(t)=\int_0^t h(t-s)v(s) ds$, where $A$ is a linear closed densely defined (possibly selfadjoint and/or positive…

The paper deals with the invertibility of Toeplitz plus Hankel operators T(a)+H(b) acting on classical Hardy spaces on the unit circle T. It is supposed that the generating functions a and b satisfy the condition a(t)a(1/t)=b(t)b(1/t).…

A pair of Hilbert space linear operators $(V_1,V_2)$ is said to be $q$-commutative, for a unimodular complex number $q$, if $V_1V_2=qV_2V_1$. A concrete functional model for $q$-commutative pairs of isometries is obtained. The functional…
