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…

The paper studies the Hill--Schr\"odinger operators with potentials in the space $H^\omega \subset H^{-1}\left(\mathbb{T}, \mathbb{R}\right)$. The main results completely describe the sequences arising as the lengths of spectral gaps of…

In this article, we obtain an Ohsawa-Takegoshi-type $L^2$-extension for upper semi-continuous $L^2$-optimal functions via a Lebesgue-type differentiation theorem. As applications, we give a characterization of plurisubharmonic functions via…

The characteristic function of row contractions and liftings of row contractions are complete invariants up to unitary equivalence for row contractions and liftings of row contractions, respectively. We provide alternate proofs for these…

Sharp comparison theorems are derived for all eigenvalues of the (weighted) Laplacian, for various classes of weighted-manifolds (i.e. Riemannian manifolds endowed with a smooth positive density). Examples include Euclidean space endowed…

We investigate the hypercontractivity property of generalized Mehler semigroups on the $L^p$-scale with respect to invariant measures. This property is first obtained in the purely theoretical setting of skew operators and, subsequently,…

The characteristic function for a contraction is a classical complete unitary invariant devised by Sz.-Nagy and Foias. Just as a contraction is related to the Szego kernel $k_S(z,w) = (1 - z\ow)^{-1}$ for $|z|, |w| < 1$, by means of…

We build on a characterization of inner functions $f$ due to Le, in terms of the spectral properties of the operator $V=M_f^*M_f$ and study to what extent the cyclicity on weighted Hardy spaces $H^2_\omega$ of the function $z \mapsto a-z$…

Motivated by a result on weak Markov dilations, we define a notion of characteristic function for ergodic and coisometric row contractions with a one-dimensional invariant subspace for the adjoints. This extends a definition given by G.…

We generalize to the setting of Arveson's maximal subdiagonal subalgebras of finite von Neumann algebras, the Szeg\"o $L^p$-distance estimate, and classical theorems of F. and M. Riesz, Gleason and Whitney, and Kolmogorov. In so doing, we…

Let ${\mathcal X}$ be a metric space with doubling measure, $L$ a nonnegative self-adjoint operator in $L^2({\mathcal X})$ satisfying the Davies-Gaffney estimate, $\omega$ a concave function on $(0,\infty)$ of strictly lower type…

In a recent paper we used a basic decomposition property of polyanalytic functions of order $2$ in one complex variable to characterize solutions of the classical $\overline{\partial}$-problem for given analytic and polyanalytic data. Our…

For any bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb C^m,$ let ${\mathrm B}_1(\Omega)$ denote the Cowen-Douglas class of commuting $m$-tuples of bounded linear operators. For an $m$-tuple $\boldsymbol T$ in the Cowen-Douglas class ${\mathrm…

This work extends the Mond-Pecaric method to functions with multiple operators as arguments by providing arbitrarily close approximations of the original functions. Instead of using linear functions to establish lower and upper bounds for…

We study the density of functions which are holomorphic in a neighbourhood of the closure $\overline{\Omega}$ of a bounded non-smooth pseudoconvex domain $\Omega$, in the Bergman space $ H^2(\Omega ,\varphi)$ with a plurisubharmonic weight…

The main issue we address in the present paper are the new models for completely non-unitary contractions with rank one defect operators acting on some Hilbert space of dimension $N\leq\infty$. This model complements nicely the well-known…

Let $\omega$ be a B\'ekoll\'e-Bonami weight. We give a complete characterization of the positive measures $\mu$ such that $$\int_{\mathcal H}|M_\omega f(z)|^qd\mu(z)\le C\left(\int_{\mathcal H}|f(z)|^p\omega(z)dV(z)\right)^{q/p}$$ and…

A sequence of $k$-uniform hypergraphs $H_1, H_2, \dots$ is convergent if the sequence of homomorphism densities $t(F, H_1), t(F, H_2), \dots$ converges for every $k$-uniform hypergraph $F$. For graphs, Lov\'asz and Szegedy showed that every…

In 1997 the present authors published a review (Ref. BEL97 in the present manuscript) that recapitulated and developed classical theory of Abelian functions realized in terms of multi-dimensional sigma-functions. This approach originated by…

This paper is an attempt to find large classes of noncommutative multivariable functions $g:\Omega\subset [B(\cH)^n]_1^-\to B(\cH)^n$ for which a reasonable operator model theory and dilation theory can be developed for the noncommutative…
