Every two variable rational inner function on the bidisk has a special representation called a transfer function realization. It is well known and related to important ideas in operator theory that this does not extend to three or more…

In this paper, we establish Kronecker limit type formulas for the Mordell-Tornheim zeta function $\Theta(r,s,t,x)$ as a function of the second as well as the third arguments. As an application of these formulas, we obtain results of…

We establish a new description of the Schur-Agler norm of a holomorphic function on the polydisc as the solution of a convex optimization problem. Consequences of this description are explored both from a theoretical and from a practical…

In this paper, we study matrix functions of bounded type from the viewpoint of describing an interplay between function theory and operator theory. \ We first establish a criterion on the coprime-ness of two singular inner functions and…

We give a solvability criterion for a special case of the $\mu$-synthesis problem. That is, we prove the necessity and sufficiency of a condition for the existence of an analytic $2 \times 2$ matrix-valued function on the disc subject to a…

This tutorial paper presents a survey of results, both classical and new, linking inner functions and operator theory. Topics discussed include invariant subspaces, universal operators, Hankel and Toeplitz operators, model spaces, truncated…

We prove a realization theorem for rational functions of several complex variables which extends the main theorem of M. Bessmertnyi, "On realizations of rational matrix functions of several complex variables," in Vol. 134 of Oper. Theory…

We prove two results with regard to rational inner functions in the Schur-Agler class of the tridisk. Every rational inner function of degree (n,1,1) is in the Schur-Agler class, and every rational inner function of degree (n,m,1) is in the…

We prove an index theorem for Toeplitz operators on the quarter-plane using the index theory for generalized Toeplitz operators introduced by G. J. Murphy. To prove this index theorem we construct an indicial triple on the tensor product of…

We introduce Schur multiple zeta functions which interpolate both the multiple zeta and multiple zeta-star functions of the Euler-Zagier type combinatorially. We first study their basic properties including a region of absolute convergence…

In this paper we would like to show the interrelation between the different mathematical theories concerning the Schur interpolation problem, contractions in Hilbert spaces, pseudocontinuation and Darlington synthesis. The main objects of…

In the study of Dirichlet series with arithmetic significance there has appeared (through the study of known examples) certain expectations, namely (i) if a functional equation and Euler product exists, then it is likely that a type of…

We establish connections between Schur parameters of the Schur class operator-valued functions, the corresponding simple conservative realizations, lower triangular Toeplitz matrices, and Kre\u\i n shorted operators. By means of Schur…

We establish Kronecker limit type formula for the generalized Mordell-Tornheim zeta function $\Theta(r,r,t,x)$ as a function of the third argument around $t=1-r$. We then show that the above Kronecker limit type formula is equivalent to the…

In this paper, we discuss function theory on Teichm\"uller space through Thurston's theory, as well as the dynamics of subgroups of the mapping class group of a surface, with reference to Sullivan's theory on the ergodic actions of discrete…

We consider Blanchet, Habegger, Masbaum and Vogel's universal construction of topological theories in dimension two, using it to produce interesting theories that do not satisfy the usual two-dimensional TQFT axioms. Kronecker's…

We construct an analogue of the classical theta-function on an Abelian variety for closed 4-dimensional symplectic manifolds which are T^2-bundles over T^2 with the zero Euler class. We use our theta-functions for a canonical symplectic…

The tetrablock is the set $$ \mathcal{E}=\{x \in \mathbb{C}^3: \quad 1-x_1z-x_2w+x_3z w \neq 0 \quad whenever \quad |z|\leq 1, |w|\leq 1\}. $$ The closure of $\mathcal{E}$ is denoted by $\overline{\mathcal{E}}$. A tetra-inner function is an…

Given a domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^m$, and a finite set of points $z_1,\ldots, z_n\in \Omega$ and $w_1,\ldots, w_n\in \mathbb{D}$ (the open unit disc in the complex plane), the $Pick\, interpolation\, problem$ asks when there is a…

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for operator-valued functions on arbitrary sets associated with a collection of test functions to have factorizations in several situations.
