Recent Progress On Truncated Toeplitz Operators, William T. Ross, Stephan Ramon Garcia Jan 2013

Recent Progress On Truncated Toeplitz Operators, William T. Ross, Stephan Ramon Garcia

Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications

This paper is a survey on the emerging theory of truncated Toeplitz operators. We begin with a brief introduction to the subject and then highlight the many recent developments in the field since Sarason’s seminal paper [88] from 2007.


Oddification Of The Cohomology Of Type A Springer Varieties, Heather M. Russell, Aaron D. Lauda Jan 2013

Oddification Of The Cohomology Of Type A Springer Varieties, Heather M. Russell, Aaron D. Lauda

Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications

We identify the ring of odd symmetric functions introduced by Ellis and Khovanov as the space of skew polynomials fixed by a natural action of the Hecke algebra at q = −1. This allows us to define graded modules over the Hecke algebra at q = −1 that are ‘odd’ analogs of the cohomology of type A Springer varieties. The graded module associated to the full flag variety corresponds to the quotient of the skew polynomial ring by the left ideal of nonconstant odd symmetric functions. The top degree component of the odd cohomology of Springer varieties is identifiedwith the …


An Extremal Problem For Characteristic Functions, William T. Ross, Isabelle Chalendar, Stephan Ramon Garcia, Dan Timotin Jan 2013

An Extremal Problem For Characteristic Functions, William T. Ross, Isabelle Chalendar, Stephan Ramon Garcia, Dan Timotin

Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications

Suppose E is a subset of the unit circle T and HC L is the Hardy subalgebra. We examine the problem of Finding the distance from the characteristic function of E to zn H. This admits an alternate description as a dual extremal problem. Precise solutions are given in several important cases. The techniques used involve the theory of Toeplitz and Hankel operators as well as the construction of certain conformal mappings.


An Explicit Bijection Between Semistandard Tableaux And Non-Elliptic Sl3 Webs, Heather M. Russell Jan 2013

An Explicit Bijection Between Semistandard Tableaux And Non-Elliptic Sl3 Webs, Heather M. Russell

Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications

The sl3 spider is a diagrammatic category used to study the representation theory of the quantum group Uq(sl3). The morphisms in this category are generated by a basis of non-elliptic webs. Khovanov- Kuperberg observed that non-elliptic webs are indexed by semistandard Young tableaux. They establish this bijection via a recursive growth algorithm. Recently, Tymoczko gave a simple version of this bijection in the case that the tableaux are standard and used it to study rotation and joins of webs. We build on Tymoczko’s bijection to give a simple and explicit algorithm for constructing all …


Model Spaces: A Survey, William T. Ross, Stephan Ramon Garcia Jan 2013

Model Spaces: A Survey, William T. Ross, Stephan Ramon Garcia

Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications

This is a brief and gentle introduction, aimed at graduate students, to the subject of model subspaces of the Hardy space.
