Complete Nevanlinna-Pick property of $\mathbb K$-Invariant Reproducing Kernels

Let $Ω$ be a Cartan domain and $K = \sum_{\underline s}a_{\underline s}K_{\underline s}$ be a $\mathbb K$-invariant kernel on $Ω$. In this article, we first obtain a necessary condition on $K$ to have the complete Nevanlinna-Pick property in terms of the sequence $\{a_{\underline s}\}_{\underline s}$ with the assumption that each $a_{\underline s}$ is non-zero and $K$ is non-vanishing. This generalizes the well-known Kaluza's Lemma in the context of $\mathbb K$-invariant kernels. The notion of the characteristic function of the classical Sz.-Nagy--Foias Theory is extended to a commuting tuple of $\frac{1}{K}$-contraction where $K$ is an irreducible $\mathbb K$-invariant kernel. An explicit construction of the characteristic function of a $\frac{1}{K}$-contraction is provided. A characterization of a $\mathbb K$-invariant kernel with the complete Nevanlinna-Pick property is obtained via the existence of characteristic functions associated with $\frac{1}{K}$-contractions.

Brown-Halmos type characterization for the tetrablock

In this note, we obtain a Brown-Halmos type characterization for Toeplitz operators on the Hardy space associated with the tetrablock. As an application, we show that the zero operator is the only compact Toeplitz operator.

Cartan Isometries and Toeplitz Operators on Cartan domains

We provide a description of the Shilov boundary of the classical Cartan domain in terms of Jordan triple determinant. As a consequence, we obtained an intrinsic characterization of Cartan isometries. Further, we obtain (i) invariance of Cartan isometries under the action of the biholomorphic automorphism group, and (ii) a Brown-Halmos type condition for Toeplitz operators on the Cartan domain. Also, we show that the zero operator is the only compact Toeplitz operator. Finally, we study the $\boldsymbol T$-Toeplitz operators and reflexivity of a Cartan isometry $\boldsymbol T.$

Commuting Tuple of Multiplication Operators Homogeneous under the Unitary Group

Let $\mathcal U(d)$ be the group of $d\times d$ unitary matrices. We find conditions to ensure that a $\mathcal U(d)$-homogeneous $d$-tuple $\boldsymbol T$ is unitarily equivalent to multiplication by the coordinate functions on some reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal H_K(\mathbb B_d, \mathbb C^n) \subseteq \mbox{\rm Hol}(\mathbb B_d, \mathbb C^n)$, $n= \dim \cap_{j=1}^d \ker T^*_{j}.$ We describe this class of $\mathcal U(d)$-homogeneous operators, equivalently, non-negative kernels $K$ quasi-invariant under the action of $\mathcal U(d)$. We classify quasi-invariant kernels $K$ transforming under $\mathcal U(d)$ with two specific choice of multipliers. A crucial ingredient of the proof is that the group $SU(d)$ has exactly two inequivalent irreducible unitary representations of dimension $d$ and none in dimensions $2, \ldots , d-1$, $d\geq 3$. We obtain explicit criterion for boundedness, reducibility and mutual unitary equivalence among these operators.

Operator theory on generalized Hartogs triangles

We consider the family $\mathcal P$ of $n$-tuples $P$ consisting of polynomials $P_1, \ldots, P_n$ with nonnegative coefficients which satisfy $\partial_i P_j(0) = δ_{i, j},$ $i, j=1, \ldots, n.$ With any such $P,$ we associate a Reinhardt domain $\triangle^{\!n}_{_P}$ that we will call the generalized Hartogs triangle. We are particularly interested in the choices $P_a = (P_{1, a}, \ldots, P_{n, a}),$ $a \geq 0,$ where $P_{j, a}(z) = z_j + a \prod_{k=1}^n z_k,~ j=1, \ldots, n.$ The generalized Hartogs triangle associated with $P_a$ is given by \begin{equation} \triangle^{\!n}_a = \Big\{z \in \mathbb C \times \mathbb C^{n-1}_* : |z_j|^2 < |z_{j+1}|^2(1-a|z_1|^2), ~j=1, \ldots, n-1, |z_n|^2 + a|z_1|^2 < 1\Big\}. \end{equation} The domain $\triangle^{\!n}_{_P},$ $n \geq 2$ is never polynomially convex. However, $\triangle^{\!n}_{_P}$ is always holomorphically convex. With any $P \in \mathcal P$ and $m \in \mathbb N^n,$ we associate a positive semi-definite kernel $\mathscr K_{_{P, m}}$ on $\triangle^{\!n}_{_P}.$ This combined with the Moore's theorem yields a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathscr H^2_m(\triangle^{\!n}_{_P})$ of holomorphic functions on $\triangle^{\!n}_{_P}.$ We study the space $\mathscr H^2_m(\triangle^{\!n}_{_P})$ and the multiplication $n$-tuple $\mathscr M_z$ acting on $\mathscr H^2_m(\triangle^{\!n}_{_P}).$ It turns out that $\mathscr M_z$ is never rationally cyclic. Although the dimension of the joint kernel of $\mathscr M^*_z-λ$ is constant of value $1$ for every $λ\in \triangle^{\!n}_{_P}$, it has jump discontinuity at the serious singularity $0$ of the boundary of $\triangle^{\!n}_{_P}$ with value equal to $\infty.$ We capitalize on the notion of joint subnormality to define a Hardy space on $\triangle^{\!n}_{_0}.$ This in turn gives an analog of the von Neumann's inequality for $\triangle^{\!n}_{_0}.$

Analyticity, rank one perturbations and the invariance of the left spectrum

We address the question of the analyticity of a rank one perturbation of an analytic operator. If $\mathscr M_z$ is the bounded operator of multiplication by $z$ on a functional Hilbert space $\mathscr H_κ$ and $f \in \mathscr H$ with $f(0)=0,$ then $\mathscr M_z + f \otimes 1$ is always analytic. If $f(0) \neq 0,$ then the analyticity of $\mathscr M_z + f \otimes 1$ is characterized in terms of the membership to $\mathscr H_κ$ of the formal power series obtained by multiplying $f(z)$ by $\frac{1}{f(0)-z}.$ As an application, we discuss the problem of the invariance of the left spectrum under rank one perturbation. In particular, we show that the left spectrum $σ_l(T + f \otimes g)$ of the rank one perturbation $T + f \otimes g,$ $\,g \in \ker(T^*),$ of a cyclic analytic left invertible bounded linear operator $T$ coincides with the left spectrum of $T$ except the point $\inp{f}{g}.$ In general, the point $\inp{f}{g}$ may or may not belong to $σ_l(T + f \otimes g).$ However, if it belongs to $σ_l(T + f \otimes g) \backslash \{0\},$ then it is a simple eigenvalue of $T + f \otimes g.$

A trace inequality for commuting tuple of operators

For a commuting $d$- tuple of operators $\boldsymbol T$ defined on a complex separable Hilbert space $\mathcal H$, let $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ be the $d\times d$ block operator $\big (\!\!\big (\big [ T_j^* , T_i\big ]\big )\!\!\big )$ of the commutators $[T^*_j , T_i] := T^*_j T_i - T_iT_j^*$. We define the determinant of $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ by symmetrizing the products in the Laplace formula for the determinant of a scalar matrix. We prove that the determinant of $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ equals the generalized commutator of the $2d$ - tuple of operators, $(T_1,T_1^*, \ldots, T_d,T_d^*)$ introduced earlier by Helton and Howe. We then apply the Amitsur-Levitzki theorem to conclude that for any commuting $d$ - tuple of $d$ - normal operators, the determinant of $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ must be $0$. We show that if the $d$- tuple $\boldsymbol T$ is cyclic, the determinant of $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ is non-negative and the compression of a fixed set of words in $T_j^* $ and $T_i$ -- to a nested sequence of finite dimensional subspaces increasing to $\mathcal H$ -- does not grow very rapidly, then the trace of the determinant of the operator $\big [\!\! \big [ \boldsymbol T^* , \boldsymbol T\big ] \!\!\big ]$ is finite. Moreover, an upper bound for this trace is given. This upper bound is shown to be sharp for a class of commuting $d$ - tuples. We make a conjecture of what might be a sharp bound in much greater generality and verify it in many examples.

$\mathbb K$-homogeneous tuple of operators on bounded symmetric domains

Let $Ω$ be an irreducible bounded symmetric domain of rank $r$ in $\mathbb C^d.$ Let $\mathbb K$ be the maximal compact subgroup of the identity component $G$ of the biholomorphic automorphism group of the domain $Ω$. The group $\mathbb K$ consisting of linear transformations acts naturally on any $d$-tuple $\boldsymbol T=(T_1,\ldots, T_d)$ of commuting bounded linear operators. If the orbit of this action modulo unitary equivalence is a singleton, then we say that $\boldsymbol T$ is $\mathbb{K}$-homogeneous. In this paper, we obtain a model for all $\mathbb{K}$-homogeneous $d$-tuple $\boldsymbol{T}$ as the operators of multiplication by the coordinate functions $z_1,\ldots ,z_d$ on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space of holomorphic functions defined on $Ω$. Using this model we obtain a criterion for (i) boundedness, (ii) membership in the Cowen-Douglas class (iii) unitary equivalence and similarity of these $d$-tuples. In particular, we show that the adjoint of the $d$-tuple of multiplication by the coordinate functions on the weighted Bergman spaces are in the Cowen-Douglas class $B_1(Ω)$. For a bounded symmetric domain $Ω$ of rank $2$, an explicit description of the operator $\sum_{i=1}^d T_i^*T_i$ is given. In general, based on this formula, we make a conjecture giving the form of this operator.
