On semigroups generated by restrictions of elliptic operators to invariant subspaces

Let A be the closed unbounded operator inL _p(G) that is associated with an elliptic boundary value problem for a bounded domainG. We prove the existence of a spectral projectionE determined by the set Γ = {λ;θ ₁≦argλ≦θ ₂} and show thatAE is the infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup provided that the following conditions hold: 1<p<∞; the boundary ϖΓ of Γ is contained in the resolvent setp(A) ofA;π/2≦θ<θ ₂≦3π/2 ; and there exists a constantc such that (I)││(λ-A)^-1││≦c/│λ│ for λ∈ϖΓ. The following consequence is obtained: Suppose that there exist constantsM andc such that λ∈p(A) and estimate (I) holds provided that |λ|≧M and Re λ=0. Then there exist bounded projectionE ⁻ andE ⁺ such thatA is completely reduced by the direct sum decompositionL _p(G)=E⁻L_p (G) ⊕E⁺L_p (G) and each of the operatorsAE ⁻ and—AE ⁺ is the infinitestimal generator of an analytic semigroup.     

General reflexivity and pattern subspaces

This paper extends the theory of reflexivity triples by extending notions and results in the theory of dual operator algebras to this more general setting. In addition, a complete and simple characterization is given for the reflexivity of two-dimensional pattern spaces of finite matrices.

On principal invariant subspaces

Let F and G be closed subspaces of the complex Hilbert space H, and U and V be closed subspaces of F and G, respectively. In this paper, using the technique of operator block, we present the necessary and sufficient conditions under which (U, V) is a pair of (strictly, non-degenerate) principal invariant subspaces for (F, G).     

Polycyclic codes as invariant subspaces

Polycyclic codes are a powerful generalization of cyclic and constacyclic codes. Their algebraic structure is studied here by the theory of invariant subspaces from linear algebra. As an application, a bound on the minimum distance of these codes is derived which outperforms, in some cases, the natural analogue of the BCH bound.     

Hypergroups and invariant complemented subspaces

Let K   be a hypergroup with a Haar measure. The purpose of the present paper is to initiate a systematic approach to the study of the class of invariant complemented subspaces of _L∞(K)$L_{\infty }(K)$ and _C0(K)$C_0(K)$, the class of left translation invariant w^?$w^{?}$-subalgebras of _L∞(K)$L_{\infty }(K)$ and finally the class of non-zero left translation invariant C^?$C^{?}$-subalgebras of _C0(K)$C_0(K)$ in the hypergroup context with the goal of finding some relations between these function spaces. Among other results, we construct two correspondences: one, between closed Weil subhypergroups and certain left translation invariant w^?$w^{?}$-subalgebras of _L∞(K)$L_{\infty }(K)$, and another, between compact subhypergroups and a specific subclass of the class of left translation invariant C^?$C^{?}$-subalgebras of _C0(K)$C_0(K)$. By the help of these two characterizations, we extract some results about invariant complemented subspaces of _L∞(K)$L_{\infty }(K)$ and _C0(K)$C_0(K)$.     

Shift-type invariant subspaces of contractions

Using the Sz.-Nagy-Foias functional model it was shown in [L. Kérchy, Injection of unilateral shifts into contractions with non-vanishing unitary asymptotes, Acta Sci. Math. (Szeged) 61 (1995) 443-476] that under certain conditions on a contraction T the natural embedding of a Hardy space of vector-valued functions into the corresponding L² space can be factored into the product of two transformations, intertwining T with a unilateral shift and with an absolutely continuous unitary operator, respectively. The norm estimates in the Factorization Theorem of this paper are sharpened to their best possible form by essential improvements in the proof. As a consequence we obtain that if the residual set of a contraction covers the whole unit circle then those invariant subspaces, where the restriction is similar to the unilateral shift with a similarity constant arbitrarily close to 1, span the whole space. Furthermore, the hyperinvariant subspace problem for asymptotically non-vanishing contractions is reduced to these special circumstances.     

Perturbations preserving conditioned invariant subspaces

Given the set of matrix pairs keeping a subspace invariant, we obtain a miniversal deformation of a pair belonging to an open dense subset of . It generalizes the known results when S is a supplementary subspace of the unobservable one. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A cross section from invariant subspaces to inner functions

Beurling's well known theorem connects the study of invariant subspaces to that of inner functions over the unit disc. In this paper, we will further explore this connection and, as a corollary of the result, show a one to one correspondence between the components of the invariant subspace lattice and the components of the space of inner functions.     

Complemented invariant subspaces and interpolation sequences

It is shown that the invariant subspace of the Bergman space of the unit disc, generated by a finite union of Hardy interpolation sequences, is complemented in .

     

Lipschitz stability of controlled invariant subspaces

Let (A,B)∈C^n×n×C^n×m and M be an (A, B)-invariant subspace. In this paper the following results are presented: (i) If M∩ImB={0}, necessary and sufficient conditions for the Lipschitz stability of M are given. (ii) If M contains the controllability subspace of the pair (A, B), sufficient conditions for the Lipschitz stability of the subspace M are given.     

Characteristic functions and joint invariant subspaces

Let T:=[T₁,…,Tn] be an n-tuple of operators on a Hilbert space such that T is a completely non-coisometric row contraction. We establish the existence of a “one-to-one” correspondence between the joint invariant subspaces under T₁,…,Tn, and the regular factorizations of the characteristic function ΘT associated with T. In particular, we prove that there is a non-trivial joint invariant subspace under the operators T₁,…,Tn, if and only if there is a non-trivial regular factorization of ΘT. We also provide a functional model for the joint invariant subspaces in terms of the regular factorizations of the characteristic function, and prove the existence of joint invariant subspaces for certain classes of n-tuples of operators.We obtain criteria for joint similarity of n-tuples of operators to Cuntz row isometries. In particular, we prove that a completely non-coisometric row contraction T is jointly similar to a Cuntz row isometry if and only if the characteristic function of T is an invertible multi-analytic operator.
