We develop the theory of invariant structure preserving and free functions on a general structured topological space. We show that an invariant structure preserving function is pointwise approximiable by the appropriate analog of polynomials in the strong topology and therefore a free function. Moreover, if a domain of operators on a Hilbert space is polynomially convex, the set of free functions satisfies a Oka-Weil Kaplansky density type theorem -- contractive functions can be approximated by contractive polynomials.
In [11] the authors investigated a family of quotient Hilbert modules in the Cowen-Douglas class over the unit disk constructed from classical Hilbert modules such as the Hardy and Bergman modules. In this paper we extend the results to the multivariable case of higher multiplicity. Moreover, similarity as well as isomorphism results are obtained.
We show that Liebs concavity theorem holds more generally for any unitarily invariant matrix function $phi:mathbf{H}^n_+rightarrow mathbb{R}$ that is monotone and concave. Concretely, we prove the joint concavity of the function $(A,B) mapstophibig[(B^frac{qs}{2}K^*A^{ps}KB^frac{qs}{2})^{frac{1}{s}}big] $ on $mathbf{H}_+^mtimesmathbf{H}_+^n$, for any $Kin mathbb{C}^{mtimes n},sin(0,1],p,qin[0,1], p+qleq 1$.
We outline a simple proof of Hulanickis theorem, that a locally compact group is amenable if and only if the left regular representation weakly contains all unitary representations. This combines some elements of the literature which have not appeared together, before.
We show that Liebs concavity theorem holds more generally for any unitary invariant matrix function $phi:mathbf{H}_+^nrightarrow mathbb{R}_+^n$ that is concave and satisfies Holders inequality. Concretely, we prove the joint concavity of the function $(A,B) mapstophibig[(B^frac{qs}{2}K^*A^{ps}KB^frac{qs}{2})^{frac{1}{s}}big] $ on $mathbf{H}_+^ntimesmathbf{H}_+^m$, for any $Kin mathbb{C}^{ntimes m}$ and any $s,p,qin(0,1], p+qleq 1$. This result improves a recent work by Huang for a more specific class of $phi$.
