For a complex Banach space $\mathbb X$, we prove that $\mathbb X$ is a Hilbert space if and only if every strict contraction $T$ on $\mathbb X$ dilates to an isometry if and only if for every strict contraction $T$ on $\mathbb X$ the…

In this article, we discuss necessary condition of conditional dilation for both completely non-unitary (c.n.u) $\Gamma_{n}$-contractions and c.n.u $\mathbb E$-contractions. Consider two tuples, $(A_1, \dots, A_{n-1})$ and $(B_1, \dots,…

In this note, we develop a parallel theory of the classical Sz.-Nagy--Foias dilation and model theory for a single contraction operator in the setting of pairs of \em{{$q$-commuting}} contraction operators for a unimodular complex number…

We extend existing results that characterize isometries on the Tsirelson-type spaces $T\big[\frac{1}{n}, \mathcal{S}_1\big]$ ($n\in \mathbb{N}, n\geq 2$) to the class $T[\theta, \mathcal{S}_{\alpha}]$ ($\theta \in \big(0, \frac{1}{2}\big]$,…

The aim of this paper is to obtain $ m $-isometric dilation of expansive $ m $-concave operator on Hilbert space. The obtained dilation is shown to be minimal. The matrix representation of this dilation is given. It is also proved that in…

We consider contractive homomorphisms of a planar algebra ${\mathcal A}(\Omega)$ over a finitely connected bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \C$ and ask if they are necessarily completely contractive. We show that a homomorphism…

We develop both bilinear theory and commutator estimates in the context of entangled dilations, specifically Zygmund dilations $(x_1, x_2, x_3) \mapsto (\delta_1 x_1, \delta_2 x_2, \delta_1 \delta_2 x_3)$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We construct…

A particular case of the fundamental Sz.-Nagy--Foias functional model for a contraction states that a pure contraction always dilates to a pure isometry. We are interested in the similar question for pairs, more precisely: does a pair of…

Let $n \geq 2$, and let $V=(V_1,\dots, V_n)$ be an $n$-tuple of isometries acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We say that $V$ is an $n$-tuple of isometries with equal range if $V_i^{m_i}V_j^{m_j}\mathcal{H} = V_j^{m_j}…

Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space and $B(H)$ the C*-algebra of bounded operators on $H.$ Suppose that $T_1,T_2,..., T_n$ are self-adjoint operators in $B(H).$ We show that, if commutators $[T_i, T_j]$ are…

In a previous paper, we showed that every strongly commuting pair of CP_0-semigroups on a von Neumann algebra (acting on a separable Hilbert space) has an E_0-dilation. In this paper we show that if one restricts attention to the von…

Let $T$ and $V$ be two Hilbert space contractions and let $X$ be a linear bounded operator. It was proved by C. Foias and J.P. Williams that in certain cases the operator block matrix $R(X;T,V)$ (defined in the text) is similar to a…

We find the commutant of a pure contractive semigroup on a Hilbert space. We demonstrate that any tuple of doubly commuting pure contractive semigroups can be dilated to a tuple of doubly commuting pure isometric semigroups. En route, we…

Inspired by the Sz.-Nagy-Foias dilation theorem we show that $n$ freely independent contractions dilate to $n$ freely independent unitaries.

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…

A well-known theorem due to R. E. Curto and N. Salinas gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the unitary equivalence of commuting tuples of bounded linear operators acting on reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Inspired by this…

Let the complex reflection group $G(m,p,n)$ act on the unit polydisc $\mathbb D^n$ in $\mathbb C^n.$ A $\boldsymbol\Theta_n$-contraction is a commuting tuple of operators on a Hilbert space having…

A commuting tuple of operators $(S_1,\dots, S_{n-1},P)$, defined on a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$, for which the closed symmetrized polydisc \[ \Gamma_n =\left\{ \left(\sum_{1\leq i\leq n} z_i,\sum_{1\leq i<j\leq n}z_iz_j,\dots,…

A result due to Williams, Stampfli and Fillmore shows that an essential isometry $T$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is a compact perturbation of an isometry if and only if ind$(T)\le 0$. A recent result of S. Chavan yields an analogous…

The paper presents a new functional model for completely non-unitary contractions on a Hilbert space. This model is based on the observation that the theory of contractions shares a common geometric basis with the extension theory of…
