A toolkit for constructing dilations on Banach spaces

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We present a completely new structure theoretic approach to the dilation theory of linear operators. Our main result is the following theorem: if X is a super-reflexive Banach space and T is contained in the weakly closed convex hull of all invertible isometries on X, then T admits a dilation to an invertible isometry on a Banach space Y with the same regularity as X. The classical dilation theorems of Sz.-Nagy and Akcoglu-Sucheston are easy consequences of our general theory.
