The paper presents a new functional model for completely non-unitary contractions on a Hilbert space. This model is based on the observation that the theory of contractions shares a common geometric basis with the extension theory of…

We develop a Sz.-Nagy--Foias-type functional model for a commutative contractive operator tuple $\underline{T} = (T_1, \dots, T_d)$ having $T = T_1 \cdots T_d$ equal to a completely nonunitary contraction. We identify additional invariants…

This paper is an attempt to find large classes of noncommutative multivariable functions $g:\Omega\subset [B(\cH)^n]_1^-\to B(\cH)^n$ for which a reasonable operator model theory and dilation theory can be developed for the noncommutative…

The goal of the present paper is to push Sz.-Nagy--Foias model theory for a completely nonunitary Hilbert-space contraction operator $T$, to the case of a commuting pair of contraction operators $(T_1, T_2)$ having product $T = T_1 T_2$…

This is a continuation of the paper entitled "Free biholomorphic functions and operator model theory", in our attempt to transfer the free analogue of Nagy-Foias theory from the unit ball $[B(\cH)^n]_1$ to other noncommutative domains and…

The spectral and scattering properties of non-selfadjoint problems pose a mathematical challenge. Apart from exceptional cases, the well-developed methods used to examine the spectrum of selfadjoint problems are not applicable. One of the…

Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space $H$ such that \[ \alpha[T^*,T]:=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \alpha_n T^{*n}T^n\ge 0. \] where $\alpha(t)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \alpha_n t^n$ is a suitable analytic function in the unit disc…

We study a closed unbounded self-adoint operator Q acting on a Hilbert space H in the framework of Metric Abstract Elementary Classes (MAECS). We build a suitable MAEC for (H,Q), prove it is aleph 0 stable up to perturbations and…

This dissertation summarizes my investigations in operator theory during my PhD studies. The first chapter is an introduction to that field of operator theory which was developed by B. Sz.-Nagy and C. Foias, the theory of power-bounded…

We introduce a notion of a noncommutative function defined on a domain of $d$-tuples of bounded operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. Inverse and implicit function theorems in this setting are established. When these…

In this article we develop a functional model for a general maximal dissipative operator. We construct the selfadjoint dilation of such operators. Unlike previous functional models, our model is given explicitly in terms of parameters of…

We prove that a sectorial operator admits an H-infty - functional calculus if and only if it has a functional model of Nagy-Foias type. Furthermore, we give a concrete formula for the characteristic function (in a generalized sense) of such…

Spectral theory and functional calculus for unbounded self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space are usually treated through von Neumann's Cayley transform. Based on ideas of Woronowicz, we redevelop this theory from the point of view of…

We demonstrate that a non self-adjoint Hamiltonian of harmonic oscillator type defined on a two-dimensional noncommutative space can be diagonalized exactly by making use of pseudo-bosonic operators. The model admits an antilinear symmetry…

We generalise the theory of energy functionals used in the study of gradient systems to the case where the domain of definition of the functional cannot be embedded into the Hilbert space $H$ on which the associated operator acts, such as…

The goal of this paper is to study the structure of noncommutative weighted shifts, their properties, and to understand their role as models (up to similarity) for $n$-tuples of operators on Hilbert spaces as well as their implications to…

Assume that $T$ is a self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and that the spectrum of $T$ is confined in the union $\bigcup_{j\in J}\Delta_j$, $J\subseteq\mathbb{Z}$, of segments $\Delta_j=[\alpha_j,…

A bounded linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space is said to be homogeneous if $\varphi(T)$ is unitarily equivalent to $T$ for all $\varphi$ in the group M\"{o}b of bi-holomorphic automorphisms of the unit disc. A projective unitary…

Let B(H) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H. The main goal of the paper is to find large classes of noncommutative domains in B(H) with prescribed universal operator models, acting on the full Fock space…

Sz.-Nagy's famous theorem states that a bounded operator $T$ which acts on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is similar to a unitary operator if and only if $T$ is invertible and both $T$ and $T^{-1}$ are power bounded. There is an…
