Test Functions, Kernels, Realizations and Interpolation

An interesting and recently much studied generalization of the classical Schur class is the class of contractive operator-valued multipliers for the reproducing kernel Hilbert space ${\mathcal H}(k_{d})$ on the unit ball ${\mathbb B}^{d} \subset {\mathbb C}^{d}$, where $k_{d}$ is the positive kernel $k_{d}(\lambda, \zeta) = 1/(1 - < \lambda, \zeta >)$ on ${\mathbb B}^{d}$. We study this space from the point of view of realization theory and functional models of de Branges-Rov...

In this paper we obtain a noncommutative multivariable analogue of the classical Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation problem for analytic functions with positive real parts on the open unit disc. As consequences, we deduce some results concerning operator-valued analytic interpolation on the unit ball on C^n.

We derive necessary density conditions for sampling and for interpolation in general reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces satisfying some natural conditions on the geometry of the space and the reproducing kernel. If the volume of shells is small compared to the volume of balls (weak annular decay property) and if the kernel possesses some off-diagonal decay or even some weaker form of localization, then there exists a critical density $D$ with the following property: a set of s...

Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) are Hilbert spaces of functions where pointwise evaluation is continuous. There are known examples of RKHSs that are Banach algebras under pointwise multiplication. These examples are built from weights on the dual of a locally compact abelian group. In this paper we define an algebra structure on an RKHS that is equivalent to subconvolutivity of the weight for known examples (referred to as reproducing kernel Hilbert algebras, or RKH...

We characterize interpolating sequences for multiplier algebras of spaces with the complete Pick property. Specifically, we show that a sequence is interpolating if and only if it is separated and generates a Carleson measure. This generalizes results of Carleson for the Hardy space and of Bishop, Marshall and Sundberg for the Dirichlet space. Furthermore, we investigate interpolating sequences for pairs of Hilbert function spaces.

We study classes of reproducing kernels $K$ on general domains; these are kernels which arise commonly in machine learning models; models based on certain families of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. They are the positive definite kernels $K$ with the property that there are countable discrete sample-subsets $S$; i.e., proper subsets $S$ having the property that every function in $\mathscr{H}\left(K\right)$ admits an $S$-sample representation. We give a characterizations of...

We give a complete characterization of Riesz bases of normalized reproducing kernels in the small Fock spaces $\mathcal{F}^2_{\varphi}$, the spaces of entire functions $f$ such that $f\mathrm{e}^{-\varphi} \in L^{2}(\mathbb{C})$, where $\varphi(z)= (\log^+|z|)^{\beta+1}$, $0< \beta \leq 1$.The first results in this direction are due to Borichev-Lyubarskii who showed that $\varphi$ with $\beta=1$ is the largest weight for which the corresponding Fock space admits Riesz bases o...

We introduce and study a Fock-space noncommutative analogue of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of de Branges-Rovnyak type. Results include: use of the de Branges-Rovnyak space ${\mathcal H}(K_{S})$ as the state space for the unique (up to unitary equivalence) observable, coisometric transfer-function realization of the Schur-class multiplier $S$, realization-theoretic characterization of inner Schur-class multipliers, and a calculus for obtaining a realization for an inner ...

This article presents a technique for analytic interpolation over the exterior of a unit disk using complex poles in the interior--as well as corresponding techniques for the exterior of a real unit disk and for the interior of a real and complex unit disk. This is accomplished by developing special kernel spaces labeled dual-access collocation-kernel spaces. Higher order pole and logarithmic point source kernels are also considered. Relationships to Szego and Bergman kernel ...

We examine densely defined (but possibly unbounded) multiplication operators in Hilbert function spaces possessing a complete Nevanlinna-Pick (CNP) kernel. For such a densely defined operator $T$, the domains of $T$ and $T^*$ are reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces contractively contained in the ambient space. We study several aspects of these spaces, especially the domain of $T^*$, which can be viewed as analogs of the classical deBranges-Rovnyak spaces in the unit disk.
