Shift Operators Contained in Contractions, Pseudocontinuable Schur Functions and Orthogonal Systems on the Unit Circle

The main aim of this paper is to establish the connection between well-known criteria for the pseudocontinuability of a non-inner Schur function Theta in the unit disk. In a canonical way we associate a probability measure mu on the unit circle with Theta. One of the two criteria will be reformulated in the face of mu, whereas the other one is drafted in view of a completely non--unitary contraction T having Theta as its corresponding characteristic function. Our main result clarifies an immediate connection between the above-mentioned two criteria. For this reason, we construct a special orthogonal basis in the space of square-integrable functions with respect to mu and rewrite these criteria in terms of this orthogonal basis.

The Schur Algorithm in Terms of System Realization

The main goal of this paper is to demonstrate the usefulness of certain ideas from System Theory in the study of problems from complex analysis. With this paper, we also aim to encourage analysts, who might not be familiar with System Theory, colligations or operator models to take a closer look at these topics. For this reason, we present a short introduction to the necessary background. The method of system realizations of analytic functions often provides new insights into and interpretations of results relating to the objects under consideration. In this paper we will use a well-studied topic from classical analysis as an example. More precisely, we will look at the classical Schur algorithm from the perspective of System Theory. We will confine our considerations to rational inner functions. This will allow us to avoid questions involving limits and will enable us to concentrate on the algebraic aspects of the problem at hand. Given a non-negative integer (n), we describe all system realizations of a given rational inner function of degree (n) in terms of an appropriately constructed equivalence relation in the set of all unitary ((n + 1) \times (n + 1) )-matrices. The concept of Redheffer coupling of colligations gives us the possibility to choose a particular representative from each equivalence class. The Schur algorithm for a rational inner function is, consequently, described in terms of the state space representation.
