We show that, given a closed subset $E$ of the unit circle of Lebesgue measure zero, there exists a positive sequence $u_n\to\infty$ with the following property: if $T$ is a Hilbert-space contraction such that $\sigma(T)\subset E$ and…

In this note, we define a bounded variant on the Hilbert projective metric on an infinite dimensional space $E$ and study the contraction properties of the projective maps associated with positive linear operators on $E$. More precisely, we…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of contractive operators and strongly continuous semigroups on separable Hilbert spaces using the notion of rigidity. In particular, we show that a "typical" contraction $T$ contains the unit circle times…

We show that (for the weak operator topology) the set of unitary operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space is residual in the set of all contractions. The analogous result holds for isometries and the strong operator…

Paszkiewicz's conjecture asserts that given a decreasing sequence $T_1\ge T_2\ge \dots$ of positive contractions on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$, the product $S_n=T_nT_{n-1}\cdots T_1$ converges in the strong operator…

Motivated by the canonical decomposition of contractions on Hilbert spaces, we investigate when contractive Toeplitz operators on vector-valued Hardy spaces on the unit disc admit a non-zero reducing subspace on which its restriction is…

A contraction $T$ on a (complex, separable) Hilbert space is stable, or of class $C_{0\cdot}$, if $T^n\to 0$ in the strong operator topology. It is proved that for a non-stable pure subnormal contraction $T$ there exists a singular inner…

A linear relation, i.e., a multivalued operator $T$ from a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}$ to a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak K}$ has Lebesgue type decompositions $T=T_{1}+T_{2}$, where $T_{1}$ is a closable operator and $T_{2}$ is an operator or…

Given a C$^*$-algebra $A$, let $S(A^+)$ denote the set of those positive elements in the unit sphere of $A$. Let $H_1$, $H_2,$ $H_3$ and $H_4$ be complex Hilbert spaces, where $H_3$ and $H_4$ are infinite-dimensional and separable. In this…

Let $U$ be a unitary operator acting on the Hilbert space $H$, $\a:\{1,..., 2k\}\mapsto\{1,..., k\}$ a pair--partition, and finally $A_{1},...,A_{2k-1}\in B(H)$. We show that the ergodic average $$…

In this paper we introduce and study absolute continuity and singularity of positive operators acting on anti-dual pairs. We establish a general theorem that can be considered as a common generalization of various earlier Lebesgue-type…

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 $f$…

A commuting triple of Hilbert space operators $(A,B,P)$, for which the closed tetrablock $\overline{\mathbb E}$ is a spectral set, is called a \textit{tetrablock-contraction} or simply an $\mathbb E$-\textit{contraction}, where \[ \mathbb…

Given a contraction A on a Hilbert space H, an operator T on H is said to be A-invariant if <Tx,x>=<TAx,Ax> for every x in H such that ||Ax||=||x||. In the special case in which both defect indices of A are equal to 1, we show that every…

This paper is concerned with the convergence of power sequences and stability of Hilbert space operators, where "convergence" and "stability" refer to weak, strong and norm topologies. It is proved that an operator has a convergent power…

The Paszkiewicz conjecture about a product of positive contractions asserts that given a decreasing sequence $T_1\ge T_2\ge \dots$ of positive contractions on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, the product $S_n=T_n\dots T_1$…

A classical result of Sz.-Nagy asserts that a Hilbert space contraction operator $T$ can be dilated to a unitary $\cU$. A more general multivariable setting for these ideas is the setup where (i) the unit disk is replaced by a domain…

Let $U$ be a unitary operator defined on some infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space ${\cal H}$. Under some suitable regularity assumptions, it is known that a local positive commutation relation between $U$ and an auxiliary…

We employ techniques from optimal transport in order to prove decay of transfer operators associated to iterated functions systems and expanding maps, giving rise to a new proof without requiring a Doeblin-Fortet (or Lasota-Yorke)…

We prove that a bounded linear Hilbert space operator has the unit circle in its essential approximate point spectrum if and only if it admits an orbit satisfying certain orthogonality and almost-orthogonality relations. This result is…
