The subnormality for the sum of commuting subnormal operators does not guarantee the existence of commuting normal extensions.
In this paper we attempt to lay the foundations for a theory encompassing some natural extensions of the class of subnormal operators, namely the $n$--subnormal operators and the sub-$n$--normal operators. We discuss inclusion relations…
In the recent paper, R. E. Curto, S. H. Lee, J. Yoon, asked the following question: Let $A$ be a subnormal operator, and assume that $A^2$ is quasinormal. Does it follow that $A$ is quasinormal? In this paper, we give an affirmative answer…
Hyponormal operators are known to be among the most difficult operators to analyze. In this work, we focus on two finite types of hyponormal operators. The first type becomes analytic shifts, while the second type admits analytic models. A…
Let H_0 (resp. H_\infty denote the class of commuting pairs of subnormal operators on Hilbert space (resp. subnormal pairs), and for an integer k>=1 let H_k denote the class of k-hyponormal pairs in H_0. We study the hyponormality and…
An adjoint pair is a pair of densely defined linear operators $A, B$ on a Hilbert space such that $\langle Ax,y\rangle=\langle x,By\rangle$ for $x\in \cD(A), y \in \cD(B).$ We consider adjoint pairs for which $0$ is a regular point for both…
An example due to Pisier shows that two commuting, completely polynomially bounded Hilbert space operators may not be simultaneously similar to contractions. Thus, while each operator is individually similar to a contraction, the pair is…
We characterize joint k-hyponormality for 2-variable weighted shifts. Using this characterization we construct a family of examples which establishes and illustrates the gap between k-hyponormality and (k+1)-hyponormality for each k>=1. As…
We first find an explicit formula for the square root of positive $2 \times 2$ operator matrices with commuting entries, and then use it to define and study semi-hyponormality for commuting pairs of Hilbert space operators. \ For the…
There is a resent paper claiming that every hyponormal operator which is not a multiple of the identity (operator) has a nontrivial hyperinvariant subspace. If this claim is true, then every hyponormal operator has a nontrivial invariant…
If $T$ is a polynomially bounded operator, $\mathcal M$ is an invariant subspace of $T$, $T|_{\mathcal M}$ is a unilateral shift and $T^*|_{\mathcal M^\perp}$ is subnormal, then $T$ has a nontrivial hyperinvariant subspace. If an operator…
We study jointly quasinormal and spherically quasinormal pairs of commuting operators on Hilbert space, as well as their powers. We first prove that, up to a constant multiple, the only jointly quasinormal $2$-variable weighted shift is the…
In this paper, we characterize absolute norm-attainability for compact hyponormal operators. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a bounded linear compact hyponormal operator on an infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space to be…
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 commuting family of subnormal operators need not have a commuting normal extension. We study when a representation of an abelian semigroup can be extended to a normal representation, and show that it suffices to extend the set of…
In this article, we characterize absolutely norm attaining normal operators in terms of the essential spectrum. Later we prove a structure theorem for hyponormal absolutely norm attaining (or $\mathcal{AN}$-operators in short) and deduce…
In a recent paper [9], R. E. Curto, S. H. Lee and J. Yoon asked the following question: Let $T$ be a subnormal operator, and assume that $T^2$ is quasinormal. Does it follow that $T$ is quasinormal?. In [36] we answered this question in the…
We consider pairs of operators $A,B\in B(H)$, where $H$ is a Hilbert space, such that there exist a linear isometry $f$ from the span of $\{A,B\}$ into $\mathbb{C}^2$ mapping $A,B$ into orthonormal vectors. We prove some necessary…
In the literature, we have several results associated with canonical decomposition of commuting contractions. In this paper, we generalize a few of these results to $Q$-commuting contractions. Here we mainly deal with $Q$-commuting and…
We give a sufficient condition for two operators to be disjointly frequently hypercyclic. We apply this criterion to composition operators acting on $H(\mathbb D)$ or on the Hardy space $H^2(\mathbb D)$. We simplify a result on disjoint…
