Dilations, Wandering subspaces, and inner functions

Monojit Bhattacharjee, IISC

Description

The objective of this work is to study wandering subspaces for commuting tuples of bounded operators on Hilbert spaces. It is shown that, for a large class of analytic functional Hilbert spaces on the unit ball in $\mathbb C^n$, wandering subspaces for restrictions of the multiplication tuple $M_z = (M_{z_1}, \ldots ,M_{z_n})$ can be described in terms of suitable inner multipliers. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the wandering subspaces to be generating are given. Along the way we prove a useful uniqueness result for minimal dilations of pure row contractions.
