The Invariant Subspace Problem ("ISP") for Hilbert space operators is known to be equivalent to a question that, on its surface, seems surprisingly concrete: For composition operators induced on the Hardy space H^2 by hyperbolic…

We prove that a composition operator is bounded on the Hardy space $H^2$ of the right half-plane if and only if the inducing map fixes the point at infinity non-tangentially, and has a finite angular derivative $\lambda$ there. In this case…

We give a systematic study on the Hardy spaces of functions with values in the non-commutative $L^p$-spaces associated with a semifinite von Neumann algebra ${\cal}M.$ This is motivated by the works on matrix valued Harmonic Analysis…

In the classical Hardy space $H^2(\mathbb{D})$, it is well-known that the kernel of the Hankel operator is invariant under the action of shift operator S and sometimes nearly invariant under the action of backward shift operator $S^{*}$. It…

We characterize those non-negative, measurable functions $\psi$ on $[0,1]$ and positive, continuous functions $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ on $\mathbb R^+$ for which the generalized Hardy-Ces\`aro operator $$(U_{\psi}f)(x)=\int_0^1…

Let X be a complex Banach space of dimension at least 2, and let S be a multiplicative semigroup of operators on X such that the rank of AB - BA is at most 1 for all pairs {A,B} in S. We prove that S has a non-trivial invariant subspace…

A closed subspace $\mathcal{M}$ of the Hardy space $H^2(\mathbb{D}^2)$ over the bidisk is called a submodule if it is invariant under multiplication by coordinate functions $z_1$ and $z_2$. Whether every finitely generated submodule is…

We give estimates for the approximation numbers of composition operators on $H^2$, in terms of some modulus of continuity. For symbols whose image is contained in a polygon, we get that these approximation numbers are dominated by $\e^{- c…

In this paper we first study the structure of the scalar and vector-valued nearly invariant subspaces with a finite defect. We then subsequently produce some fruitful applications of our new results. We produce a decomposition theorem for…

Let $L_1$ be a nonnegative self-adjoint operator in $L^2({\mathbb R}^n)$ satisfying the Davies-Gaffney estimates and $L_2$ a second order divergence form elliptic operator with complex bounded measurable coefficients. A typical example of…

For two positive integers $m$ and $n$, we let ${\mathbb H}_n$ be the Siegel upper half plane of degree $n$ and let ${\mathbb C}^{(m,n)}$ be the set of all $m\times n$ complex matrices. In this article, we study differential operators on the…

The behavior of certain weighted Hardy-type operators on rearrangement-invariant function spaces is thoroughly studied with emphasis being put on the optimality of the obtained results. First, the optimal rearrangement-invariant function…

In this article, we completely classify invariant subspaces of finite-rank perturbations of a class of Toeplitz operators on vector-valued Hardy spaces. As a consequence, in the vector-valued setting, we characterize invariant and almost…

We define Hardy spaces $\mathcal{H}^p$ for quasiregular mappings in the plane, and show that for a particular class of these mappings many of the classical properties that hold in the classical setting of analytic mappings still hold. This…

We study idempotent, model, and Toeplitz operators that attain the norm. Notably, we prove that if $\mathcal{Q}$ is a backward shift invariant subspace of the Hardy space $H^2(\mathbb{D})$, then the model operator $S_{\mathcal{Q}}$ attains…

We consider an action of a compact group whose dual is archimedean linearly ordered or a direct product (or sum) of such groups on a von Neumann algebra, M. We define the generalized Hardy subspace of the Hilbert space of a standard…

To determine the Hilbert space and inner product for a quantum theory defined by a non-Hermitian $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonian $H$, it is necessary to construct a new time-independent observable operator called $C$. It has recently…

A detailed investigation is made of the continuity, spectrum and mean ergodic properties of the Ces\`aro operator $C$ when acting on the strong duals of power series spaces of infinite type. There is a dramatic difference in the nature of…

An investigation is made of the generalized Ces\`aro operators $C_t$, for $t\in [0,1]$, when they act on the space $H(\mathbb{D})$ of holomorphic functions on the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}$, on the Banach space $H^\infty$ of bounded…

We show that if A is a Hilbert-space operator, then the set of all projections onto hyperinvariant subspaces of A, which is contained in the von Neumann algebra vN(A) that is generated by A, is independent of the representation of vN(A),…
