In this paper we examine an inverse problem in the modular theory of von Neumann algebras in the case of finite factors. First we give a characterization of cyclic and separating vectors for finite factors in terms of operators associated…
A strict integer Laurent polynomial in a variable $x$ is 0 or a sum of one or more terms having integer coefficients times $x$ raised to a negative integer exponent. Equations that can be transformed to certain such polynomials times…
In the first part of the paper, we address an invertible matrix polynomial $L(z)$ and its inverse $\hat{L}(z) := -L(z)^{-1}$. We present a method for obtaining a canonical set of root functions and Jordan chains of $L(z)$ through elementary…
By classical results of Herglotz and F. Riesz, any bounded analytic function in the complex unit disk has a unique inner-outer factorization. Here, a bounded analytic function is called \emph{inner} or \emph{outer} if multiplication by this…
We begin a study of Schur analysis in the setting of the Grassmann algebra, when the latter is completed with respect to the $1$-norm. We focus on the rational case. We start with a theorem on invertibility in the completed algebra, and…
We give a survey of results on zero distribution and factorization of analytic functions in the unit disc in classes defined by the growth of $\log|f(re^{i\theta})|$ in the uniform and integral metrics. We restrict ourself by the case of…
Consider the family of locally univalent analytic functions $h$ in the unit disk $|z|<1$ with the normalization $h(0)=0$, $h'(0)=1$ and satisfying the condition $${\real} \left( \frac{z h''(z)}{\alpha h'(z)}\right) <\frac{1}{2} ~\mbox{ for…
These notes answer the question "When can a finite Blaschke product $B$ be written as a composition of two finite Blaschke products $B_1$ and $B_2$, that is, $B=B_1\circ B_2$, in a non-trivial way, that is, where the order of each is…
The second derivative of a function r(t) with respect to a variable t is equal to -n times the function raised to the 2n-1 power of r(t); using this definition, an ordinary differential equation is constructed. Graphs with the horizontal…
A generalization of the Zernike circle polynomials for expansion of functions vanishing outside the unit disk is given. These generalized Zernike functions have the form Zm,{\alpha} n ({\rho}, \vartheta) = Rm,{\alpha} n ({\rho})…
In this paper we show that every inner divisor of the operator-valued coordinate function, $zI_E$, is a Blaschke-Potapov factor. We also introduce a notion of operator-valued "rational" function and then show that $\Delta$ is two-sided…
In this first part of a larger review undertaking the results of the first author and a part of the second author doctor dissertation are presented. Next we plan to give a survey of a nowadays situation in the area of investigation. Here we…
Suppose that $f$ is a transcendental entire function, $V \subsetneq \mathbb{C}$ is a simply connected domain, and $U$ is a connected component of $f^{-1}(V)$. Using Riemann maps, we associate the map $f \colon U \to V$ to an inner function…
The tetrablock is the set $$ \mathcal{E}=\{x \in \mathbb{C}^3: \quad 1-x_1z-x_2w+x_3z w \neq 0 \quad whenever \quad |z|\leq 1, |w|\leq 1\}. $$ The closure of $\mathcal{E}$ is denoted by $\overline{\mathcal{E}}$. A tetra-inner function is an…
The main aim of the present work is to arrive at a mathematical theory close to the historically original conception of generalized functions, i.e. set theoretical functions defined on, and with values in, a suitable ring of scalars and…
We consider the classical problem of maximizing the derivative at a fixed point over the set of all bounded analytic functions in the unit disk with prescribed critical points. We show that the extremal function is essentially unique and…
One of the most common types of functions in mathematics, physics, and engineering is a sum of products, sometimes called a partition function. After "normalization," a sum of products has a natural graphical representation, called a normal…
In the work [Bull, Austr. Math. Soc. 85 (2012), 315-234], S.R. Moghadasi has shown how the decomposition of the $N$-fold product of Lebesgue measure on $\mathbb R^n$ implied by matrix polar decomposition can be used to derive the…
In this survey paper, we discuss the problem of characterizing the critical sets of bounded analytic functions in the unit disk of the complex plane. This problem is closely related to the Berger-Nirenberg problem in differential geometry…
