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

Suppose E is a subset of the unit circle T and Hinfinity C Linfinity is the Hardy subalgebra. We examine the problem of finding the distance from the characteristic function of E to znHinfinity. 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.

Unlike Toeplitz operators on H², truncated Toeplitz operators do not have a natural matricial characterization. Consequently, these operators are difficult to study numerically. In this paper we provide criteria for a matrix with distinct eigenvalues to be unitarily equivalent to a truncated Toeplitz operator having an analytic symbol. This test is constructive, and we illustrate it with several examples. As a byproduct, we also prove that every complex symmetric operator on a Hilbert space of dimension ≤ 3 is unitarily equivalent to a direct sum of truncated Toeplitz operators.

A matrix TMn(C) is UECSM if it is unitarily equivalent to a complex symmetric (i.e., self-transpose) matrix. We develop several techniques for studying this property in dimensions three and four. Among other things, we completely characterize 4×4 nilpotent matrices which are UECSM and we settle an open problem which has lingered in the 3×3 case. We conclude with a discussion concerning a crucial difference which makes dimension three so different from dimensions four and above.

We prove several lower bounds for the norm of a truncated Toeplitz operator and obtain a curious relationship between the H2 and Hnorms of functions in model spaces.
