Operators intertwining with isometries and Brownian parts of 2-isometries
Abstract For two operators A and T ( A ≥ 0 ) on a Hilbert space H satisfying T ⁎ A T = A and the A-regularity condition A T = A 1 / 2 T A 1 / 2 we study the subspace N ( A − A 2 ) in connection with N ( A T − T A ) , for T belonging to different classes. Our results generalize those due to C. Kubrusly concerning the case when T is a contraction and A = S T is the asymptotic limit of T. Also, the particular case of a 2-isometry in the sense of S. Richter as well as J. Agler and M. Stankus is considered. For such operators, under the same regularity condition we completely describe the reducing Brownian unitary and isometric parts, as well as the invariant Brownian isometric part. Some exampl…
Ergodic properties of operators in some semi-Hilbertian spaces
This article deals with linear operators T on a complex Hilbert space ℋ, which are bounded with respect to the seminorm induced by a positive operator A on ℋ. The A-adjoint and A 1/2-adjoint of T are considered to obtain some ergodic conditions for T with respect to A. These operators are also employed to investigate the class of orthogonally mean ergodic operators as well as that of A-power bounded operators. Some classes of orthogonally mean ergodic or A-ergodic operators, which come from the theory of generalized Toeplitz operators are considered. In particular, we give an example of an A-ergodic operator (with an injective A) which is not Cesaro ergodic, such that T * is not a quasiaff…
Convex and expansive liftings close to two-isometries and power bounded operators
Abstract In the context of Hilbert space operators, there is a strong relationship between convex and expansive operators and 2-isometries. In this paper, we investigate the bounded linear operators T on a Hilbert space H which have a 2-isometric lifting S on a Hilbert space K containing H as a closed subspace invariant for S ⁎ S . This last property holds in particular when S | K ⊖ H is an isometry. We relate such 2-isometric liftings S by some convex, concave or expansive liftings of the same type as S. We also examine some power bounded operators with such liftings, as well as an intermediate expansive lifting associated with T on the space H ⊕ l + 2 ( H ) . The latter notion is used to …
