Abstract:
If $\kappa$ is a positive definite kernel on the open unit disk $D$ in the complex plane, then we associate with it a positive definite kernel $\kappa ’$ on $D$ and correlate some operator theoretic properties of $M\left ( \kappa \right )$ and $M\left ( {\kappa ’} \right )$, where $M\left ( \kappa \right )$ denotes the multiplication operator on the functional Hilbert space $\mathcal {H}\left ( \kappa \right )$ associated with $\kappa$. The main emphasis of this paper is on the discussion of hyponormality and subnormality properties. We also construct a sequence of positive definite kernels ${\kappa _{ - p}}\left ( {p = 1,2, \ldots } \right )$ on $D$ such that $M\left ( {{\kappa _{ - p}}} \right )$ is a $\left ( {p + 1} \right )$-isometry, but not a $q$-isometry for any positive integer $q$ less than or equal to $p$.References
