This gives a background for the … The first two chapters of the book are devoted to convexity in the classical sense, for functions of one and several real variables respectively. This gives a background for the study in the following chapters of related notions which occur in the theory of linear partial differential equations and complex analysis such as (pluri-)subharmonic functions, pseudoconvex sets and sets which are convex for supports or singular supports with respect to a differential operator. In addition the convexity conditions which are relevant for local or global existence of holomorphic solutions of holomorphic differential equations are discussed, leading up to Trepreau's theorem on sufficiency of condition (psi) for microlocal solvability in the analytic category.

In the … This book is intended as both an introductory text and a reference book for those interested in studying several complex variables in the context of partial differential equations. In the last few decades, significant progress has been made in the study of Cauchy-Riemann and tangential Cauchy-Riemann operators; this progress greatly influenced the development of PDEs and several complex variables. After the background material in complex analysis is developed in Chapters 1 to 3, the next three chapters are devoted to the solvability and regularity of the Cauchy-Riemann equations using Hilbert space techniques. The authors provide a systematic study of the Cauchy-Riemann equations and the \bar\partial-Neumann problem, including Hormander's L2 existence progress on the global regularity and irregularity of the \bar\partial-Neumann operators. The second part of the book gives a comprehensive study of the tangential Cauchy-Riemann equations, another important class of equations in several complex variables first studied by Lewy. An up-to-date account of the L2 theory for \bar\partial_b operator is given. Explicit integral solution representations are constructed both on the Heisenberg groups and on strictly convex boundaries with estimates in Holder and L2 spaces. Embeddability of abstract CR structures is discussed in detail here for the first time. Titles in this series are co-published with International Press, Cambridge, MA.

For instance, Toeplitz operators possess a symbolic calculus analogous to the usual symbolic calculus, and by symbolic means one can construct parametrices for Toeplitz operators and create new Toeplitz operators out of old ones by functional operations.If P is a self-adjoint pseudodifferential operator on a compact manifold with an elliptic symbol that is of order greater than zero, then it has a discrete spectrum. Also, it is well known that the asymptotic behavior of its eigenvalues is closely related to the behavior of the bicharacteristic flow generated by its symbol.It is natural to ask if similar results are true for Toeplitz operators. In the course of answering this question, the authors explore in depth the analogies between Toeplitz operators and pseudodifferential operators and show that both can be viewed as the quantized objects associated with functions on compact contact manifolds.

In Section 2.2 we introduce some notation for certain spaces of holomorphic functions on sectors. A functional calculus for sectorial operators is constructed in Section 2.3 along the lines of the abstract framework of Chapter 1. Fundamental properties like the composition rule are proved. In Section 2.5 we give natural extensions of the functional calculus to larger function spaces in the case where the given operator is bounded and/or invertible. In this way a panorama of functional calculi is developed. In Section 2.6 some mixed topics are discussed, e.g., adjoints and restrictions of sectorial operators and some fundamental boundedness and some first approximation results. Section 2.7 contains a spectral mapping theorem.

It … For any irrational number a let Aa be the transformation group C*-algebra for the action of the integers on the circle by powers of the rotation by angle 2πa. It is known that Aa is simple and has a unique normalized trace, τ. We show that for every β in (Z + Za) Π [0,1] there is a projection p in Aa with τ(p) = β. When this fact is combined with the very recent result of Pimsner and Voiculescu that if p is any projection in Aa then τ{p) must be in the above set, one can immediately show that, except for some obvious redundancies, the Aa are not isomorphic for different a. Moreover, we show that Aa and Aβ are strongly Morita equivalent exactly if a and β are in the same orbit under the action of GL (2, Z) on irrational numbers. 0* Introduction* Let a be an irrational number, and let S

The existence of this additional symmetry has notable implications and, in particular, it explains from a unifying point of view some classical results. We explore applications of this symmetry to Jordan canonical models, self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators, rank-one unitary perturbations of the compressed shift, Darlington synthesis and matrix-valued inner functions, and free bounded analytic interpolation in the disk.

The result … be possible for a given sequence of points {zv}, I z, 1, and an analytic function f(z) in I z i < 1, I f(z) I _ 1. The result is, however, very implicit ancd gives in a concrete situation very little help in deciding if the interpolatioln is possible or not. The object of the present paper is to give a simple and explicit condition on {z,} under which the interpolation (1. 1) is possible with a bounded function f(z). If we allow {w,} to be an arbitrary bounded sequence, the condition is also a necessary one. It should be observed that even the existence of any infinite such sequence {zv} is non-trivial; this problem was suggested by R. C. Buck and constructions of such examples have also recentlybeen given by G-leason and Newman (unpublished). The proof of the main theorem depends on a reformulation of problem (1.1) which is presented in section 2. It is essentially included in a result by Garabedian [2]; since the discussion there is quite general and the proof complicated, we have included a complete and simple proof here. Section 3 contains an inequality of the Schwarz type, which is the crucial step in our proof. This is then completed in section 4. The last section is devoted to an application to the ideal structure in the algebra of bounded analytic functions.

On such a manifold scalar multiplication by i in the tangent space has an invariant meaning. An even dimensional 2n real manifold is called almost complex if there is a linear transformation J defined on the tangent space at every point (and varying differentiably with respect to local coordinates) whose square is minus the identity, i.e. if there is a real tensor field h' satisfying

Various related problems are also considered. These include weak type results, the problem when there are different weight functions on the two sides of the inequality, the case when $p = 1$ or $p = \infty$, a weighted definition of the maximal function, and the result in higher dimensions. Applications of the results to mean summability of Fourier and Gegenbauer series are also given.

This establishes sufficient conditions on the growth of the function that defines the metric in terms of the seminorms to ensure that a linear operator preserving the metric also preserves each of these seminorms. As an application, characterizations are given of the isometries on various spaces including those of holomorphic functions on complex domains and continuous functions on open sets, extending the Banach–Stone theorem to surjective and nonsurjective cases.

The aim of the work is to study the properties of this integral representation for integrable functions. Namely, the paper considers an integral (integral operator) with this kernel for integrable functions $f$ on the boundary $S$ of the unit ball $B$. Iterations of the integral of this integral operator of the order $k$ are considered. We prove that they converge to a function holomorphic in $B$ as $k\to\infty$.

Furthermore, we show that Toeplitz operators Ta with radial symbols are unitary to the multiplication operators γaI on sequence space l2 by using the operator A. The Wick function of a Toeplitz operator with a radial symbol provides some features to the operator, establishing its spectral decomposition. Finally, we specify the obtained results on the Reinhardt domains for the unit ball.

If an elementary operator L has elementary symbols A and B that are p-null and q-null, respectively, then L is (p+q−1)-null. Here, we prove the converse under strictness conditions, modulo some nonzero multiplicative constant—if L is strictly (p+q−1)-null, then a scalar λ≠0 exists such that λA is strictly p-null and λ−1B is strictly q-null. Our constructive argument relies essentially on algebraic and combinatorial methods. Thus, the result obtained by Gu on m-isometries is recovered without resorting to spectral analysis. For several operator classes that generalize m-isometries and are subsumed by m-null operators, the result is new.

Given an operator algebra dynamical system we prove a dilation theory that shows that the full crossed product is isomorphic to the relative full crossed product with respect to this maximal semi-Dirichlet cover. In this way, we can show that every semi-Dirichlet dynamical system has a semi-Dirichlet full crossed product.

Let ψ be a holomorphic self-map on a connected Stein n-manifold Ω and ω ∈ H(Ω) a holomorphic function. We study the hypercyclicity of weighted composition operator Πψ,ω : H(Ω) → H(Ω) defined by Πψ,ω (f ) := ω · (f ◦ ψ) for every f ∈ H(Ω). We prove that Πψ,ω is hypercyclic if and only if ω(p)̸ = 0 at each p ∈ Ω, ψ is univalent without fixed points in Ω, ψ(Ω) is a Runge domain and for every compact holomorphically convex set K ⊂ Ω there is an integer n such that K ∩ ψ[n](K) = ∅ and their union is holomorphically convex.

We show how a vanishing Berezin transform combined with certain (integral) growth conditions on an operator 𝑇 are sufficient to imply that the operator is compact in the Bergman space. We also show that the reproducing kernel for compactness holds for operators satisfying similar growth conditions in (Weighted Bargmann-Fock space). Following [13] we extend the results of Xia and Zheng to the case of Bergman space when 0 &lt; 𝜖 &lt; ∞, and in weighted Bargmann-Fock space.The main results introduced more general new conditions that imply and improved the results of Xia and Zheng by thecase0 &lt; 𝜖 &lt; ∞.
In this article, we study the similarity of the Polish operator topologies $\texttt{WOT}$, $\texttt{SOT}$, $\texttt{SOT}\mbox{$_{*}$}$ and $\texttt{SOT}\mbox{$^{*}$}$ on the set of the positive contractions on $\ell_p$ with $p > 1$. … In this article, we study the similarity of the Polish operator topologies $\texttt{WOT}$, $\texttt{SOT}$, $\texttt{SOT}\mbox{$_{*}$}$ and $\texttt{SOT}\mbox{$^{*}$}$ on the set of the positive contractions on $\ell_p$ with $p > 1$. Using the notion of norming vector for a positive operator, we prove that these topologies are similar on $\mathcal{P}_1(\ell_2)$, that is they have the same dense sets in $\mathcal{P}_1(\ell_2)$. In particular, these topologies will share the same comeager sets in $\mathcal{P}_1(\ell_2)$. We then apply these results to the study of typical properties of positive contractions on $\ell_p$-spaces in the Baire category sense. In particular, we prove that a typical positive contraction $T \in (\mathcal{P}_1(\ell_2), \texttt{SOT})$ has no eigenvalue. This stands in strong contrast to a result of Eisner and M\'atrai, stating that the point spectrum of a typical contraction $T \in (\mathcal{B}_1(\ell_2), \texttt{SOT})$ contains the whole unit disk. As a consequence of our results, we obtain that a typical positive contraction $T \in (\mathcal{P}_1(\ell_2), \texttt{WOT})$ (resp. $T \in (\mathcal{P}_1(\ell_2), \texttt{SOT}\mbox{$_{*}$})$) has no eigenvalue.
