Isometrically equivalent composition operators on spaces of analytic vector-valued functions

LetVbe an arbitrary system of weights on an open connected subsetGofℂN(N≥1)and letB(E)be the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Banach spaceE. LetHVb(G,E)andHV0(G,E)be the weighted locally convex spaces of vector-valued analytic functions. In this survey, we present a development of the theory of multiplication operators and composition operators from classical spaces of analytic functionsH(G)to the weighted spaces of analytic functionsHVb(G,E)andHV0(G,E).

Hadamard type operators on spaces of real analytic functions in several variables

Abstract. The necessary and sufficient conditions for stability of abstract difference schemes in Hilbert and Banach spaces are formulated. Contrary to known stability results we give stability conditions for schemes with non-self-adjoint operator coefficients in a Hilbert space and with strongly positive operator coefficients in a Banach space. It is shown that the parameters of the sectorial spectral domain play the crucial role. As an application we consider the Richardson iteration scheme for an operator equation in a Banach space, in particulary the Richardson iteration with precondition for a finite element scheme for a non-selfadjoint operator. The theoretical results are also the basis when using the regularization principle to construct stable difference schemes. For this aim we start from some simple scheme (even unstable) and derive stable schemes by perturbing the initial operator coefficients and by taking into account the stability conditions. Our approach is also valid for schemes with unbounded operator coefficients.

We ask when convolution operators with scalar- or operator-valued kernel functions map between weighted L2 spaces of Hilbert space-valued functions. For a certain class of decreasing weights, including negative powers (t + a)−m for example, we solve the one-weight problem completely by using Laplace transforms and Bergman-type spaces of vector-valued analytic functions. For a much more general class of decreasing weights, we solve the one-weight problem for all positive real kernels (also for Lp(w) with p > 1), by results on Steklov operators which generalise the weighted Hardy inequality. When the kernel function is a strongly continuous semigroup of bounded linear Hilbert space operators, which arises from input–output maps of certain linear systems, then the most obvious sufficient condition for boundedness, obtained by taking norm signs inside the integrals, is also necessary in many cases, but not in general.

The purpose of this work is to study various geometric properties of Banach spaces, with particular emphasis on their stability with respect to the formation of (infinite) absolute sums and Köthe-Bochner spaces of vector- valued functions. The first three chapters are devoted to the class of acs (``alternatively convex or smooth'') Banach spaces and their relatives, the luacs and uacs spaces. These notions were introduced by Kadets et al. in 2000 (in connection with the so called anti-Daugavet property) and form common generalisations of the usual convexity and smoothness properties of Banach spaces. In the first chapter, these notions (as well as some other related properties introduced by the author) are studied from a general point of view. For example, some equivalent characterisations are established and results on duality and quotient spaces are discussed. In the second chapter, various results on (mainly infinite) absolute sums of acs spaces and their relatives are proved, while in the third chapter, acs properties of Köthe-Bochner spaces of vector-valued functions are discussed. The fourth chapter is devoted to the so called Opial property and its variants, as well as some other geometric notions (WORTH property and Garcia-Falset coefficient) of Banach spaces, which are all related to the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings. Some stability results for these properties in certain infinite absolute sums are established. Furthemore, some properties analogous to the Opial property in Lebesgue-Bochner spaces and Ces`aro spaces of vector-valued functions are discussed. The fifth chapter concerns Banach spaces with the so called ``ball generated property'' (BGP). The stability of this property with respect to certain sums of two spaces is proved. The last chapter deals with generalised lush (GL) spaces, which were introduced by Huang et al. in 2013 in connection with the Mazur-Ulam extension problem. Some results on GL-spaces are established. In particular, every M-ideal in a GL-space is again a GL-space.

In this paper, we study composition operators on a Banach space of analytic functions, denoted byX, which includes the Bloch space. This space arises naturally as the dual space of analytic functions in the Bergman spaceL α 1 (D) which admit an atomic decomposition. We characterize the functions which induce compact composition operators and those which induce Fredholm operatorson this space. We also investigate when a composition operator has a closed range.

Antiproximinal Sets in Banach Spaces of Continuous Vector-Valued Functions

If A is a bounded linear multicyclic operator acting on a complex Banach spaceX, then thedisc of A is defined by: disc A = sup(R ∈ Cyc A) min{dimR′: R′ ⊂ R, R′ ∈ Cyc A}, where Cyc A denotes the family of all finite dimensional subspacesR ofX such that X = (R+AR+A 2 R+⋯)−. It is shown that if the set {λ ∈ ℂ: dim ker (λ-A)* ≥ n} has nonempty interior (in particular, if A is a Fredholm operator of index -n), then disc A ≥ n+1. This result affirmatively answers a question of V.I. Vasjunin and N.K. Nikol'skii. In the case whenX is a Hilbert space, it is shown that the set of all operators A such that A is n-multicyclic, but disc A =∞, is dense in the set of all n-multicyclic operators. If Mλ = "multiplication by λ" acting on the disk algebra (and many other spaces of continuous and/or analytic functions), then Mλ is cyclic, but disc Mλ = ∞. However, the analogous result is false if the disk algebra is replaced by the algebra of functions analytic on the disk and smooth on the boundary, or algebras of Lipschitz functions. If T is a multicyclic unicellular operator, then T is cyclic and disc T=1.

Weakly compact composition operators on vector-valued BMOA

Two spaces of analytic functions are considered, each comprised of functions analytic on the open disk NR(0) of radius R (0 < R < +∞ ) centred at the origin. The first space consists of all analytic functions on NR(0) topologized according to the metric of uniform convergence on compact sets. As the second space we allow any Fréchet space of analytic functions on NR(0) for which the topology is stronger than that induced by . Our objective is then to present a scheme for constructing simultaneous automorphisms on and .

A theorem due to Milutin [12] (see also [13]) asserts that for any two uncountable compact metric spaces Ω1 and Ω2 the spaces of continuous real-valued functions C(Ω1) and C(Ω2) are linearly isomorphic. It immediately follows from consideration of tensor products that if X is any Banach space then C(Ω1;X) and C(Ω2;X) are isomorphic.

The instability index of a linear operator with point spectrum is defined to be the total multiplicity of its eigenvalues with positive real parts. Under certain conditions the computation of the instability index of an unbounded nonsymmetric operator acting in a Hilbert space can be reduced to an analogous problem for a certain selfadjoint operator. It is shown that if the original operator is a differential operator acting in a space of vector-valued functions with a single variable, then the selfadjoint operator corresponding to it can be found in the form of an integro-differential operator which can be realized constructively by solving a special elliptic boundary value problem. Analogues of known theorems of Morse on the connection between the instability index and the number of conjugate points are established for this integro-differential operator.Bibliography: 26 titles.

We introduce a vector-valued version of a uniform algebra, called the vector-valued function space over a uniform algebra. The diameter two properties of the vector-valued function space over a uniform algebra on an infinite compact Hausdorff space are investigated. Every nonempty relatively weakly open subset of the unit ball of a vector-valued function space $$A(K, (X, \tau ))$$ over an infinite dimensional uniform algebra has diameter two, where $$\tau $$ is a locally convex Hausdorff topology on a Banach space X compatible to a dual pair. Under the assumption of X equipped with the norm topology being uniformly convex and the additional condition that $$A\otimes X\subset A(K, X)$$ , it is shown that Daugavet points and $$\Delta $$ -points on A(K, X) over a uniform algebra A are the same, and they are characterized by the norm-attainment at a limit point of the Shilov boundary of A. In addition, a sufficient condition for the convex diametral local diameter two property of A(K, X) is also provided. Similar results also hold for an infinite dimensional uniform algebra.
