Integral operators are fundamental tools for modeling various real-world
problems and hold a central position in operator theory. This dissertation ex
plores the intricate properties of these operators, with a specific focus on gen
eralized Volterra-type integral operators V(g,ψ) and J(g,ψ). While substantial
research has been conducted on properties such as boundedness, compactness,
and essential norm, other fundamental properties such as order boundedness,
closed range, spectral characteristics, and dynamical structures remains insuffi
ciently explored. This dissertation aims to fill that gap by extensively exploring
these properties within the framework of Fock spaces.
The dissertation is organized into six chapters, each addressing a specific
aspect of the operators on Fock spaces. Chapter 1 provides a comprehensive
review of the relevant literature on integral operators and presents some prelim
inary results that serves as the foundation for subsequent investigations.
Chapter 2 addresses the closed range problem for generalized Volterra-type
integral operators on Fock spaces FP. We first provide a complete solution to
this problem by using several key concepts which include sampling sets, reverse
Fock–Carleson measures, the reproducing kernel thesis, boundedness from be
low, and the essential boundedness of two relevant functions M(g,ψ) and M(g,ψ).
Building on these results, we solve the problem in terms of a simple condition
which only requires to verify whether the coefficient of the first-degree term
in the Taylor expansion of the function ψ lies on the unit circle. Additionally,
we prove that no nontrivial closed range integral operators exist between two
distinct Fock spaces. Explicit expressions for their ranges are also derived, re
vealing that these ranges consist solely of functions in the space that vanish at
the origin.
Chapter 3 focuses on the spectra and iterated structures of the integral op
erators. To identify spectral sets, we first establish an interesting connection
between the spectra of the integral operators and weighted composition opera
tors acting on appropriate spaces. It is shown that while the operator V(g,ψ) does
not admit eigenvalues, all eigenvalues of J(g,ψ) are of the form g(z0)am, where
a is from the expansion ψ(z) = az+b and z0 is the fixed point of ψ. As an
application of these spectral results, the iterates of the operators are analyzed,
v
and their power bounded structures are characterized.
Chapter 4 investigates the cyclicity and frame structures of the operators on
Fock spaces. We demonstrate that Fock spaces do not support supercyclic or
convex-cyclic generalized Volterra-type integral operators, nor do they support
cyclic structures for the operator J(g,ψ). Interestingly, we show that J(g,ψ) admits
a cyclic and convex-cyclic structures when its action is restricted to its closed
range F0 p, and hence falls under a subspace convex-cyclic category of operators.
We further explore the dynamical sampling properties from the perspective of
frame theory. It is shown that no element in the space has a dense orbit under
the action of the integral operators. A loosely related question was when the op
erators preserve frame structures in the Fock space F2. It is found that while the
operators themselves fail to preserve such structures, their adjoints do preserve
under some interesting conditions.
The order bounded structures of the integral operators are studied in Chapter
5. We characterize the structures in terms of an Lp integrability condition of the
functions M(g,ψ) and M(g,ψ). The proof of the results are based on the action
of the operators on the normalized reproducing kernel functions.
Finally, in Chapter 6, we summarizes the dissertation’s main findings and
discuss potential directions for future research. By addressing these less ex
plored but fundamental aspects of integral operators, this dissertation contributes
to a deeper understanding of their properties , particularly in the context of Fock
spaces. |
