Decomposing algebraic m-isometric tuples

arXiv:1912.05954

Abstract

We show that any m-isometric tuples of commuting operators on a finite dimensional Hilbert space can be decomposed as a sum of a spherical isometry and a commuting nilpotent tuple. Our approach applies as well to tuples of algebraic operators that are hereditary roots of polynomials in several variables.
