Harmonic Analysis of Operators on Hilbert Space

by Hari Bercovici, Ciprian Foias, Bela and Ciprian Foias Sz. -Nagy

The existence of unitary dilations makes it possible to study arbitrary contractions on a Hilbert space using the tools of harmonic analysis. The first edition of this book was an account of the progress done in this direction in 1950-70. Since then, this work has influenced many other areas of mathematics, most notably interpolation theory and control theory. This second edition, in addition to revising and amending the original text, focuses on...
