Realizations for Schur upper triangular operators centered at an arbitrary point

Reproducing kernel spaces introduced by L. de Branges and J. Rovnyak provide isometric, coisometric and unitary realizations for Schur functions, i.e. for matrix-valued functions analytic and contractive in the open unit disk. In our previous paper [12] we showed that similar realizations exist in the nonstationary setting, i.e. when one considers upper triangular contractions (which appear in time-variant system theory as transfer functions of dissipative systems) rather than Schur functions and diagonal operators rather than complex numbers. We considered in [12] realizations centered at the origin. In the present paper we study realizations of a more general kind, centered at an arbitrary diagonal operator. Analogous realizations (centered at a point of the open unit disk) for Schur functions were introduced and studied in [3] and [4].
