We study unitarily equivalent bilateral weighted shifts with operator weights. We establish a general characterization of unitary equivalence of such shifts under the assumption that the weights are quasi-invertible. We prove that under…
We introduce two natural notions of multivariable Aluthge transforms (toral and spherical), and study their basic properties. In the case of 2-variable weighted shifts, we first prove that the toral Aluthge transform does not preserve…
Nonrenormalization theorems involving the transverse, i.e. non anomalous, part of the <VVA> correlator in perturbative QCD are proven. Some of their consequences and questions they raise are discussed.
In this paper we characterise absolutely norm attaining quasi*paranormal weighted shifts on directed trees and give some examples. Moreover we give some examples which show that the spectrum of a positive absolutely norm attaining operator…
Let $\alpha :\sqrt{x_{m}},\cdots ,\sqrt{x_{1}},(\sqrt{u},\sqrt{v},\sqrt{w}% )^{\wedge}$ be a backward $m$-step extension of a recursive weight sequence and let $% W_{\alpha }$ be the weighted shift associated with $\alpha $. In this paper…
A complete characterization of near subnormality for bilateral weighted shifts is obtained. As an application of the main results, many new answers to the Hilbert space problem 160 are presented at the end of the paper.
We prove that a CPD unilateral weighted shift $W_{\lambda}$ of type III is a quasi-affine transform of the operator $M_z$ of multiplication by the independent variable on the $L^2(\rho)$-closure of analytic complex polynomials on the…
We study the spectral pictures of (jointly) hyponormal 2-variable weighted shifts with commuting subnormal components. By contrast with all known results in the theory of subnormal single and 2-variable weighted shifts, we show that the…
A cohomology theory is proposed for the recently discovered heptagon relation -- an algebraic imitation of a 5-dimensional Pachner move 4--3. In particular, `quadratic cohomology' is introduced, and it is shown that it is quite nontrivial,…
It is not known if the inverse of a frequently hypercyclic bilateral weighted shift on $c_0(\mathbb{Z})$ is again frequently hypercyclic. We show that the corresponding problem for upper frequent hypercyclicity has a positive answer. We…
A formally normal weighted shift on a directed tree is shown to be a bounded normal operator. The question of whether a normal extension of a subnormal weighted shift on a directed tree can be modeled as a weighted shift on some, possible…
Square of a posinormal operator is not necessarily posinormal$.$ But (i) powers of quasiposinormal operators are quasiposinormal and, under closed ranges assumption, powers of (ii) posinormal operators are posinormal, (iii) of operators…
Aluthge transform of a bounded operator is generalized to the case of unbounded one. A formula for the Aluthge transform of a weighted shift on a directed tree is established and it is used to construct an example of a hyponormal operator…
We obtain a Disjoint Frequent Hypercyclicity Criterion and show that it characterizes disjoint frequent hypercyclicity for a family of unilateral pseudo-shifts on $c_0(\mathbb{N})$ and $\ell^p(\mathbb{N})$, $1\le p <\infty$. As an…
Malnormal subgroups occur in various contexts. We review a large number of examples, and we compare the situation in this generality to that of finite Frobenius groups of permutations. In a companion paper [HaWe], we analyse when peripheral…
The weighted shifts are long known and important class of operators. One of known generalisation of this class are weighted shifts on directed trees, where we replace the linear order of coordinates in $\ell^2$ with a possibly more…
In a recent paper [15], Hilbert space operators $T$ with the property that each sequence of the form $\{\|T^n h\|^2\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ is conditionally positive definite in a semigroup sense were introduced. In the present paper, this line…
We prove that an injective, not necessarily bounded weighted bilateral shift operator on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ is similar to a normal operator if and only if it is similar to a scalar multiple of the simple (i.e. unweighted) bilateral shift…
The axial anomaly of the noncommutative U(1) gauge theory is calculated by a number of methods and compared with the commutative one. It is found to be given by the corresponding Chern class.
The noncommutative Choquet boundary and the C*-envelope of operator systems of the form Span{1,T,T*}, where T is a Hilbert space operator with normal-like features, are studied. Such operators include normal operators, k-normal operators,…
