Unitary N-dilations for Tuples of Commuting Matrices

We show that whenever a contractive k-tuple T on a finite dimensional space H has a unitary dilation, then for any fixed degree N there is a unitary k-tuple U on a finite dimensional space so that q(T ) = PHq(U)|H for all polynomials q of degree at most N .

Isometric Dilations of Non-commuting Finite Rank N-tuples

A contractive n-tuple A = (A1, . . . , An) has a minimal joint isometric dilation S = (S1, . . . , Sn) where the Si’s are isometries with pairwise orthogonal ranges. This determines a representation of the Cuntz-Toeplitz algebra. When A acts on a finite dimensional space, the wot-closed nonself-adjoint algebra S generated by S is completely described in terms of the properties of A. This provid...

Orbits on n-tuples

A transitive (infinite) permutation group which has m orbits on ordered pairs of distinct points has at least mn−1 orbits on ordered n-tuples. This is best possible, and groups attaining the bound can be characterised.

Standard dilations of q-commuting tuples

Here we study dilations of q-commuting tuples. In [BBD] the authors gave the correspondence between the two standard dilations of commuting tuples and here these results have been extended to q-commuting tuples. We are able to do this when q-coefficients ‘qij ’ are of modulus one. We introduce ‘maximal q-commuting subspace ’ of a n-tuple of operators and ‘standard q-commuting dilation’. Our mai...
