A Hilbert space operator $U$ is called universal (in the sense of Rota) if every Hilbert space operator is similar to a multiple of $U$ restricted to one of its invariant subspaces. It follows that the Invariant Subspace Problem for Hilbert…

The invariant subspaces of the Hardy space on $H^2(\mathbb{D})$ of the unit disc are very well known however in several variables the structure of the invariant subspaces of the classical Hardy spaces is not yet fully understood. In this…

V. Matache (J. Operator Theory 73(1):243--264, 2015) raised an open problem about characterizing composition operators $C_{\phi}$ on the Hardy space $H^2$ and nonzero singular measures $\mu_1$, $\mu_2$ on the unit circle such that…

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…

In this paper, we consider several questions emerging from the Beurling-Lax-Halmos Theorem, which characterizes the shift-invariant subspaces of vector-valued Hardy spaces. The Beurling-Lax-Halmos Theorem states that a backward…

We study the composition operators $C_a$ acting on the Hardy space $H^2$ of the unit disk, given by $C_af=f\circ\varphi_a$, where $$ \varphi_a(z)=\frac{a-z}{1-\bar{a}z}, $$ for $|a|<1$. These operators are reflections: $C_a^2=1$. We study…

In this paper we study subspaces which are invariant under squares and cubes (separately as well as jointly) of unicellular backward weighted shift operators on a separable Hilbert space. The finite-dimensional subspaces are characterized…
