Weakly k-hyponormal and polynomially hyponormal commuting operator pairs

We introduce the notion of weak k-hyponormality and polynomial hyponormality for commuting operator pairs on a Hilbert space and investigate their relationship with k-hyponormality and subnormality.We provide examples of 2-variable weighted shifts which are weakly 1-hyponormal but not hyponormal.By...

Description
Summary:We introduce the notion of weak k-hyponormality and polynomial hyponormality for commuting operator pairs on a Hilbert space and investigate their relationship with k-hyponormality and subnormality.We provide examples of 2-variable weighted shifts which are weakly 1-hyponormal but not hyponormal.By relating the weak k-hyponormality and k-hyponormality of a commuting operator pair to positivity of restriction of some linear functionals to corresponding cones of functions,we prove that there is an operator pair that is polynomially hyponormal but not 2-hyponormal,generalizing Curto and Putinar’s result(1991,1993)to the two-variable case.
