Weyl families of transformed boundary pairs

Let $(\mathfrak{L},\mathrm{\Gamma })$ be an isometric boundary pair associated with a closed symmetric linear relation T in a Krein space $\mathfrak{H}$. Let $M_{\mathrm{\Gamma }}$ be the Weyl family corresponding to $(\mathfrak{L},\mathrm{\Gamma })$. We cope with two main topics. First, since $M_{\mathrm{\Gamma }}$ need not be (generalized) Nevanlinna, the characterization of the closure and the adjoint of a linear relation $M_{\mathrm{\Gamma }}(z)$, for some $z\in \mathbb{C}\setminus \mathbb{R}$, becomes a nontrivial task. Regarding $M_{\mathrm{\Gamma }}(z)$ as the (Shmul'yan) transform of $zI$ induced by Γ, we give conditions for the equality in $\overline{M_{\mathrm{\Gamma }}(z)}\subseteq \overline{M_{\overline{\mathrm{\Gamma }}}(z)}$ to hold and we compute the adjoint $M_{\overline{\mathrm{\Gamma }}}{(z)}^{\ast }$. As an application, we ask when the resolvent set of the main transform associated with a unitary boundary pair for $T^{+}$ is nonempty. Based on the criterion for the closeness of $M_{\mathrm{\Gamma }}(z)$, we give a sufficient condition for the answer. From this result it follows, for example, that, if T is a standard linear relation in a Pontryagin space, then the Weyl family $M_{\mathrm{\Gamma }}$ corresponding to a boundary relation Γ for $T^{+}$ is a generalized Nevanlinna family; a similar conclusion is already known if T is an operator. In the second topic, we characterize the transformed boundary pair $({\mathfrak{L}}^{\prime },{\mathrm{\Gamma }}^{\prime })$ with its Weyl family $M_{{\mathrm{\Gamma }}^{\prime }}$. The transformation scheme is either ${\mathrm{\Gamma }}^{\prime }=\mathrm{\Gamma }{V}^{-1}$ or ${\mathrm{\Gamma }}^{\prime }=V\mathrm{\Gamma }$ with suitable linear relations V. Results in this direction include but are not limited to: a 1-1 correspondence between $(\mathfrak{L},\mathrm{\Gamma })$ and $({\mathfrak{L}}^{\prime },{\mathrm{\Gamma }}^{\prime })$; the formula for $M_{{\mathrm{\Gamma }}^{\prime }}-M_{\mathrm{\Gamma }}$, for an ordinary boundary triple and a standard unitary operator V (first scheme); construction of a quasi boundary triple from an isometric boundary triple $(\mathfrak{L},{\mathrm{\Gamma }}_0,{\mathrm{\Gamma }}_1)$ with $ker\mathrm{\Gamma }=T$ and $T_0=T_0^{\ast }$ (second scheme, Hilbert space case).
