Singular inner eigenfunctions of composition operators

This paper characterizes all the singular inner eigenfunctions of the composition operators $C_\phi$ that arise from discrete measures, when $\phi$ is an automorphism of unit disk. By establishing a connection between Beurling and model invariant subspaces, we classify all the inner functions so that the corresponding Beurling subspace is invariant under the composition operators induced by non-elliptic automorphisms. This classification involves solving the eigenfunction equation for the composition operator. Further, we present some applications of the above-mentioned connection.

Convexity of Berezin Range and Berezin Radius Inequalities via a class of Seminorm

Let $B(\mathcal{H})$ denote the $C^*$-algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}(\Omega).$ In this paper, we introduce a new family of seminorms on $B(\mathcal{H})$, called the $\sigma_t$-Berezin norm, defined as $$ \|A\|_{{ber}_{\sigma_t}} = \sup_{\lambda,\mu\in \Omega} \left\{ \left( \left|\left\langle A\hat{k}_\lambda,\hat{k}_\mu\right\rangle\right|^p \, \sigma_t \, \left|\left\langle A^*\hat{k}_\lambda,\hat{k}_\mu\right\rangle\right|^p \right)^{\frac{1}{p}} \right\}, $$ where $A\in B(\mathcal{H}), ~p \geq 1, ~t \in [0,1]$ and ~$\sigma_t$ denotes an interpolation path of a symmetric mean $\sigma$. We show that this family of seminorms characterizes invertible operators that are unitary. Several fundamental properties of the $\sigma_t$-Berezin norm are established, along with a collection of new inequalities that yield refined upper bounds for the Berezin radius of bounded linear operators, thereby improving existing results in the literature. Furthermore, we investigate the convexity of the Berezin range of operators acting on weighted Hardy space and Fock space over $\mathbb{C}^n$. We characterised the convexity of the Berezin range of composition operator with elliptic automorphism and finite rank operators with different weights on the weighted Hardy space. We also characterized convexity of the Berezin range of composition operator on Fock space over $\mathbb{C}^n$ with symbol $\phi(z)=Az$, where $A$ is a scalar matrix of order $n$.

On the convexity of Berezin range and Berezin radius inequalities via a class of semi-norms

This paper introduces a new family of semi-norms, say $\sigma_\mu$-Berezin norm on the space of all bounded linear operators $B(\mathcal{H})$ defined on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, namely, for each $\mu \in [0,1]$ and $p\geq 1$, $$\|T\|_{\sigma_{\mu}\text{-ber}}= \sup_{\lambda\in\Omega}\left\lbrace \left(|\langle T\hat{k}_\lambda,\hat{k}_\lambda\rangle |^p~ \sigma_{\mu}~ \|T\hat{k}_\lambda\|^p\right)^{\frac{1}{p}}\right\rbrace $$ where $T\in B(\mathcal{H})$ and $\sigma_{\mu}$ is an interpolation path of the symmetric mean $\sigma$. We investigate many fundamental properties of the $\sigma_\mu$-Berezin norm and develop several inequalities associated with it. Utilizing these inequalities, we derive improved bounds for the Berezin radius of bounded linear operators, enhancing previously known estimates. Furthermore, we study the convexity of the Berezin range of a class of composition operators and weighted shift operators on both the Hardy space and the Bergman space.

A Family of Semi-norms in $C^*$-algebras

We introduce a new family of non-negative real-valued functions on a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$, i.e., for $0\leq \mu \leq 1,$ $$\|a\|_{\sigma_{\mu}}= \text{sup}\left\lbrace \sqrt{|f(a)|^2 \sigma_{\mu} f(a^*a)}: f\in \mathcal{A}', \, f(1)=\|f\|=1 \right\rbrace, \quad $$ where $a\in \mathcal{A}$ and $\sigma_{\mu}$ is an interpolation path of the symmetric mean $\sigma$. These functions are semi-norms as they satisfy the norm axioms, except for the triangle inequality. Special cases satisfying triangle inequality, and a complete equality characterization is also discussed. Various bounds and relationships will be established for this new family, with a connection to the existing literature in the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space.

Convexity of the Berezin range of finite rank operators

For a bounded linear operator $T$ acting on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}(\Omega)$ over a nonempty set $\Omega$, the Berezin range of $T$ is defined by \[ \mathrm{Ber}(T)=\left\{\langle T\hat{k}_{\lambda},\hat{k}_{\lambda}\rangle_{\mathcal{H}} : \lambda \in \Omega \right\} \] and the Berezin radius is given by \[ \mathrm{ber}(T)=\sup\left\{ |\gamma| : \gamma \in \mathrm{Ber}(T) \right\}, \] where $\hat{k}_{\lambda}$ denotes the normalized reproducing kernel at $\lambda \in \Omega$. In this paper, we study the convexity of the Berezin range of finite rank operators on the Hardy space and the Bergman space over the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$. We present applications of some scalar inequalities to get some operator inequalities. A characterization of closure of the numerical range of reproducing kernel Hilbert space operator in terms of convex hull of its Berezin range is also discussed.

Composition operators between Beurling subspaces of Hardy space

V. Matache (J. Operator Theory 73(1):243--264, 2015) raised an open problem about characterizing composition operators $C_{\phi}$ on the Hardy space $H^2$ and nonzero singular measures $\mu_1$, $\mu_2$ on the unit circle such that $C_{\phi}({S_{\mu_1}} H^2)\subseteq {S_{\mu_2}} H^2,$ where $S_{\mu_i}$ denotes the singular inner function corresponding to the measure $\mu_i,i=1,2$. In this article, we consider this problem in a more general setting. We characterize holomorphic self maps $\phi$ of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ and inner functions $\theta_1, \theta_2$ such that $C_{\phi}(\theta_1 H^p)\subseteq \theta_2 H^p,$ for $p>0$. Emphasis is given to Blaschke products and singular inner functions as a special case. We also give an another measure-theoretic characterization to above question when $\phi$ is an elliptic automorphism. For a given Blaschke product $\theta$, we discuss about finding all self maps $\phi$ such that $\theta H^p$ is invariant under $C_\phi$.

On the convexity of the Berezin range of composition operators and related questions

The Berezin range of a bounded operator $T$ acting on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is the set $B(T)$ := $\{\langle T\hat{k}_{x},\hat{k}_{x} \rangle_{\mathcal{H}} : x \in X\}$, where $\hat{k}_{x}$ is the normalized reproducing kernel for $\mathcal{H}$ at $x \in X$. In general, the Berezin range of an operator is not convex. Primarily, we focus on characterizing the convexity of the Berezin range for a class of composition operators acting on the Fock space on $\mathbb{C}$ and the Dirichlet space of the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$. We prove an analogue of the elliptic range theorem for the unitarily equivalent Berezin range of an operator on a two-dimensional reproducing kernel Hilbert space and characterize the convexity of the unitarily equivalent Berezin range for a bounded operator $T$ on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$.

Composition operators, convexity of their Berezin range and related questions

The Berezin range of a bounded operator $T$ acting on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is the set $\text{Ber}(T)$ := $\{\langle T\hat{k}_{x},\hat{k}_{x} \rangle_{\mathcal{H}} : x \in X\}$, where $\hat{k}_{x}$ is the normalized reproducing kernel for $\mathcal{H}$ at $x \in X$. In general, the Berezin range of an operator is not convex. In this paper, we discuss the convexity of range of the Berezin transforms. We characterize the convexity of the Berezin range for a class of composition operators acting on the Hardy space and the Bergman space of the unit disk. Also for so-called superquadratic functions, we prove the Berezin set mapping theorem for positive self-adjoint operators $A$ on the reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}(\Omega)$, namely we prove that $f(\mathrm{Ber}(\Phi(A)))=\mathrm{Ber}(\Phi(f(A)))$, where $\Phi:\mathcal{B}%\left( \mathcal{H}\left( \Omega\right) \right) \mathcal{\rightarrow}\mathcal{B}\left( \mathcal{K(}Q\mathcal{)}\right) $ is a normalized positive linear map.

The structure of twisted power partial isometries

Let $n>1$ and let $\{U_{ij}\}_{1\leq i<j\leq n}$ be $n\choose 2$ commuting unitaries on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Suppose $U_{ji}:=U^*_{ij}$, $1\leq i<j\leq n$. An n-tuple of power partial isometries $(V_1,...,V_n)$ on Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is called $\mathcal{U}_n$-twisted power partial isometry with respect to $\{U_{ij}\}_{i<j}$ (or simply $\mathcal{U}_n$-twisted power partial isometry if $\{U_{ij}\}_{i<j}$ is clear from the context) if $V_i^*V_j=U_{ij}V_jV^*_i, ~~ V_iV_j=U_{ji}V_jV_i ~~\text{and}~~ V_kU_{ij}=U_{ij}V_k~~(i,j,k=1,2,...,n,~\text{and}~i\neq j).$ We prove that each $\mathcal{U}_n$-twisted power partial isometry admits a Halmos and Wallen \cite{HW70} type orthogonal decomposition.

Multiplication operators between discrete Hardy spaces on rooted trees

Muthukumar and Ponnusamy \cite{MP-Tp-spaces} studied the multiplication operators on $\mathbb{T}_p$ spaces. In this article, we mainly consider multiplication operators between $\mathbb{T}_p$ and $\mathbb{T}_q$ ($p\neq q$). In particular, we characterize bounded and compact multiplication operators from $\mathbb{T}_{p}$ to $\mathbb{T}_{q}$. For $p\neq q$, we prove that there are no invertible multiplication operators from $\mathbb{T}_{p}$ to $\mathbb{T}_{q}$ and also there are no isometric multiplication operators from $\mathbb{T}_{p}$ to $\mathbb{T}_{q}$. Finally, we discuss about fixed points of a multiplication operator on $\mathbb{T}_{p}$.

Hyperrigid generators in C*-algebras

In this article, we show that, if $S\in \mathcal{B}(H)$ is irreducible and essential unitary, then $\{S,SS^*\}$ is a hyperrigid generator for the unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{T}$ generated by $\{S,SS^*\}$. We prove that, if $T$ is an operator in $\mathcal{B}(H)$ that generates an unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ then $\{T,T^*T,TT^*\}$ is a hyperrigid generator for $\mathcal{A}$. As a corollary it follows that, if $T\in \mathcal{B}(H)$ is normal then $\{T,TT^*\}$ is hyperrigid generator for the unital $C^*$-algebra generated by $T$ and if $T\in \mathcal{B}(H)$ is unitary then $\{T\}$ is hyperrigid generator for the $C^*$-algebra generated by $T$. We show that if $V\in \mathcal{B}(H)$ is an isometry (not unitary) that generates the $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ then the minimal generating set $\{V\}$ is not hyperrigid for $\mathcal{A}$.

Quasi Hyperrigidity and Weak Peak Points for Non-Commutative Operator Systems

In this article, we introduce the notions of weak boundary repre- sentation, quasi hyperrigidity and weak peak points in the non-commutative setting for operator systems in C* algebras. An analogue of Saskin theorem relating quasi hyperrigidity and weak Choquet boundary for particular classes of C* algebras is proved. We also show that, if an irreducible representation is a weak boundary representation and weak peak then it is a boundary repre- sentation. Several examples are provided to illustrate these notions. It is also observed that isometries on Hilbert spaces play an important role in the study of certain operator systems.

Multi-phonon Raman scattering in GaN nanowires

UV Raman scattering studies show longitudinal optical (LO) mode up to 4th order in wurtzite GaN nanowire system. Frohlich interaction of electron with the long range electrostatic field of ionic bonded GaN gives rise to enhancement in LO phonon modes. Good crystalline quality, as indicated by the crystallographic as well as luminescence studies, is thought to be responsible for this significant observation. Calculated size dependence, incorporating size corrected dielectric constants, of electron-phonon interaction energy agrees well with measured values and also predict stronger interaction energy than that of the bulk for diameter below ~3 nm.
