چکیده

If T is an operator on a Hubert space %, this paper gives necessary and sufficient conditions on 7" such that C*(T), the C*-algebra generated by T, is generated by a unilateral shift of some multiplicity. This result is then specialized to the cases in which T is a hyponormal or subnormal operator. In particular, it is shown how to prove a recent conjecture of C. R. Putnam as a consequence of our result.

Unitary Invariants in Multivariable Operator Theory

The problems considered in this paper come as a natural continuation of our program to develop a free analogue of Sz.-Nagy–Foiaş theory, for row contractions. An n-tuple (T1, . . . , Tn) of operators acting on a Hilbert space is called row contraction if T1T ∗ 1 + · · ·+ TnT ∗ n ≤ I. In this study, the role of the unilateral shift is played by the left creation operators on the full Fock space ...

Toeplitz Operators and Solvable C*-algebras on Hermitian Symmetric Spaces

Bounded symmetric domains (Cartan domains and exceptional domains) are higher-dimensional generalizations of the open unit disc. In this note we give a structure theory for the C*-algebra T generated by all Toeplitz operators Tf(h) := P{fh) with continuous symbol function ƒ G C(S) on the Shilov boundary 5 of a bounded symmetric domain D of arbitrary rank r. Here h belongs to the Hardy space H(S...

Shift Invariant Spaces and Shift Preserving Operators on Locally Compact Abelian Groups

We investigate shift invariant subspaces of $L^2(G)$, where $G$ is a locally compact abelian group. We show that every shift invariant space can be decomposed as an orthogonal sum of spaces each of which is generated by a single function whose shifts form a Parseval frame. For a second countable locally compact abelian group $G$ we prove a useful Hilbert space isomorphism, introduce range funct...

C∗-algebras Generated by a Subnormal Operator

Using the functional calculus for a normal operator, we provide a result for generalized Toeplitz operators, analogous to the theorem of Axler and Shields on harmonic extensions of the disc algebra. Besides that result, we prove that if T is an injective subnormal weighted shift, then any two nontrivial subspaces invariant under T cannot be orthogonal to each other. Then we show that the C∗-alg...

Some Properties of $ ast $-frames in Hilbert Modules Over Pro-C*-algebras

In this paper, by using the sequence of adjointable operators from pro-C*-algebra $ mathcal{A} $ into a Hilbert $ mathcal{A} $-module $ E $. We introduce frames with bounds in pro-C*-algebra $ mathcal{A} $. New frames in Hilbert modules over pro-C*-algebras are called standard $ ast $-frames of multipliers. Meanwhile, we study several useful properties of standard $ ast $-frames in Hilbert modu...
