High order isometric liftings and dilations
Catalin Badea, Vladimir Müller, Laurian Suciu
We show that a Hilbert space bounded linear operator has an -isometric lifting for some integer if and only if the norms of its powers grow polynomially. In analogy wit…
Hilbert space operators with two-isometric dilations
Catalin Badea, Laurian Suciu
A bounded linear Hilbert space operator is said to be a -isometry if the operator and its adjoint satisfy the relation . In this pa…
The Cauchy dual and 2-isometric liftings of concave operators
Catalin Badea, Laurian Suciu
We present some 2-isometric lifting and extension results for Hilbert space concave operators. For a special class of concave operators we study their Cauchy dual operators and dis…
Similarity problems, Folner sets and isometric representations of amenable semigroups
Catalin Badea, Laurian Suciu
We revisit Sz.-Nagy's criteria for similarity of Hilbert space bounded linear operators to isometries or unitaries and present new ones. We also discuss counterparts of the Dixmier…
