We introduce a large family of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces $\mathcal{H} \subset \mbox{Hol}(\mathbb{D})$, which include the classical Dirichlet-type spaces $\mathcal{D}_\alpha$, by requiring normalized monomials to form a Riesz basis…

We study the existence of algebras of hypercyclic vectors for weighted backward shifts on Fr\'echet sequence spaces that are algebras when endowed with coordinatewise multiplication or with the Cauchy product. As a particular case we obtain…

Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space of dimension not less than $3$ and let ${\mathcal C}$ be a conjugacy class of compact self-adjoint operators on $H$. Suppose that the dimension of the kernels of operators from ${\mathcal C}$ not less than…

Let $T$ be a $C_0$--contraction on a separable Hilbert space. We assume that $I_H-T^*T$ is compact. For a function $f$ holomorphic in the unit disk $\DD$ and continuous on $\bar\DD$, we show that $f(T)$ is compact if and only if $f$…

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…

An operator $T$ on a Banach space is said to be of chain $N$ if there exist non-scalar operators $S_1,...,S_{N-1}$ and a non-zero compact $K$ such that $$T \leftrightarrow S_1 \leftrightarrow S_2 \leftrightarrow ...\leftrightarrow S_{N-1}…

A semiregular operator on a Hilbert C^*-module, or equivalently, on the C^*-algebra of `compact' operators on it, is a closable densely defined operator whose adjoint is also densely defined. It is shown that for operators on extensions of…

The question of whether a hypercyclic operator $T$ acting on a Fr{\'e}chet algebra $X$ admits or not an algebra of hypercyclic vectors (but 0) has been addressed in the recent literature. In this paper we give new criteria and…

The entangled ergodic theorem concerns the study of the convergence in the strong, or merely weak operator topology, of the multiple Cesaro mean $$\frac{1}{N^{k}}\sum_{n_{1},...,n_{k}=0}^{N-1} U^{n_{\a(1)}}A_{1}U^{n_{\a(2)}}...…

Let $A$ be a unital operator algebra. Let us assume that every {\it bounded\/} unital homomorphism $u\colon \ A\to B(H)$ is similar to a {\it contractive\/} one. Let $\text{\rm Sim}(u) = \inf\{\|S\|\, \|S^{-1}\|\}$ where the infimum runs…

This is an introduction to the algebras $A\subset B(H)$ that the linear operators $T:H\to H$ can form, once a complex Hilbert space $H$ is given. Motivated by quantum mechanics, we are mainly interested in the von Neumann algebras, which…

A topological space is called P_2 ( P_3, P_{<omega} ) if and only if it does not contain two (three, finitely many) uncountable open sets with empty intersection. We show that (i) there are 0-dimensional P_{<omega} spaces of size 2^omega,…

We show that the unitary group of any SOT-separable $\mathrm{II}_1$ factor $M$, with the strong operator topology, is contractible. Combined with several old results, this implies that the same is true for any SOT-separable von Neumann…

Let $T$ be a positive operator on a complex Banach lattice. It is a long open problem whether the peripheral spectrum $\sigma_{\operatorname{per}}(T)$ of $T$ is always cyclic. We consider several growth conditions on $T$, involving its…

Let $A$ and $B$ be compact operators over a topological space $X$ and suppose that these operators are normal and have same distinct eigenvalues at each point. By obstruction theory, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for $A$…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and $T:\mathcal{H}\to \mathcal{H}$ be a contraction. Let $$A_nf=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{j=1}^nT^jf$$ for $f\in \mathcal{H}$. Let $(n_k)$ be a lacunary sequence, then there exists a constant $C_1>0$ such…

A commuting triple of operators $(A,B,P)$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is called a tetrablock contraction if the closure of the set $$ E = \{\underline{x}=(x_1,x_2,x_3)\in \mathbb{C}^3: 1-x_1z-x_2w+x_3zw \neq 0 \text{whenever}|z| \leq…

Considering a family of upper frequently hypercyclic operators we care about the existence of vectors which are upper frequently hypercyclic for any operator of this family. We establish sufficient conditions for a family of operators to…

A sequence of scalars is said to be admissible for a positive operator A on a Hilbert space if it is the diagonal of VAV* for some partial isometry V having as domain the closure of the range of A. When A is a projection, the celebrated…

This paper investigates composition operators and weighted composition operators on semi-Hilbert spaces induced by positive multiplication operators on \( L^2(\mu) \). Within the framework of \( A \)-adjoint operators, we characterize…
