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…

In this article we consider the generalized integral operators acting on the Hilbert space $H^2$. We characterize when these operators are uniform, strong and weakly asymptotic Toeplitz and Hankel operators. Moreover we completely describe…

We establish a spectral characterization theorem for the operators on complex Hilbert spaces of arbitrary dimensions that attain their norm on every closed subspace. The class of these operators is not closed under addition. Nevertheless,…

For an invertible linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $H$, put \[ \alpha(T^*,T) := -T^{*2}T^2 + (1+r^2) T^* T - r^2 I, \] where $I$ stands for the identity operator on $H$ and $r\in (0,1)$; this expression comes from applying Agler's…

A linear relation, i.e., a multivalued operator $T$ from a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}$ to a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak K}$ has Lebesgue type decompositions $T=T_{1}+T_{2}$, where $T_{1}$ is a closable operator and $T_{2}$ is an operator or…

Motivated by the canonical decomposition of contractions on Hilbert spaces, we investigate when contractive Toeplitz operators on vector-valued Hardy spaces on the unit disc admit a non-zero reducing subspace on which its restriction is…

A unitary operator which relates the system of a particle in a linear potential with time-dependent parameters to that of a free particle, has been given. This operator, closely related to the one which is responsible for the existence of…

A bounded linear operator $T$ on a separable complex Hilbert space $H$ is called $C$-normal if there is a conjugation $C$ on $H$ such that $ CT^\ast TC=TT^\ast$. Let $\varphi$ be a linear fractional self-map of $\mathbb{D}$. In this paper,…

We study some basic properties of the class of universal operators on Hilbert space, and provide new examples of universal operators and universal pairs.

Consider a finite dimensional complex Hilbert space $\cH$, with $dim(\cH) \geq 3$, define $\bS(\cH):= \{x\in \cH \:|\: ||x||=1\}$, and let $\nu_\cH$ be the unique regular Borel positive measure invariant under the action of the unitary…

We give a survey of the known connections between regularity conditions and amenability conditions in the setting of uniform algebras. For a uniform algebra $A$ we consider the set, $A_{lc}$, of functions in $A$ which are locally constant…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of contractive operators and strongly continuous semigroups on separable Hilbert spaces using the notion of rigidity. In particular, we show that a "typical" contraction $T$ contains the unit circle times…

Let $\M$ be a von Neumann algebra with a faithful normal trace $\T$, and let $H^\infty$ be a finite, maximal, subdiagonal algebra of $\M$. Fundamental theorems on conjugate functions for weak$^*$\!-Dirichlet algebras are shown to be valid…

Ternary algebras, constructed from ternary commutators, or as we call them, ternutators, defined as the alternating sum of products of three operators, have been shown to satisfy cubic identities as necessary conditions for their existence.…

In this survey, we shall present characterizations of some distinguished classes of Hilbertian bounded linear operators (namely, normal operators, selfadjoint operators, and unitary operators) in terms of operator inequalities related to…

Let T be a quasidiagonal operator on a separable Hilbert space. Then T is the norm limit of operators, each of which generate a finite dimensional C*-algebra, if and only if the C*-algebra generated by T is exact.

Let X be a real Banach space. We prove that the existence of an injective, positive, symmetric and not strictly singular operator from X into its dual implies that either X admits an equivalent Hilbertian norm or it contains a nontrivially…
