Solutions to a dyadic recurrent system and a certain action on \(\mathcal B(\mathcal H)\) induced by shifts (Q629277)

Let \(\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})\) be the Hilbert space of square summable double sequences of complex numbers with the standard orthonormal basis \(\{e^n: n \in \mathbb{Z}\}\). Let \(P=(p_{ij}), Q=(q_{ij}), V=(v_{ij}), W=(w_{ij})\) be bounded matrices on \(\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})\) and \(a,b,c,d \in \mathbb{C}\). Consider a bounded matrix \(A\) on \(\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})\) satisfying the system of equations for all \(i,j\): {\parindent5mm \begin{itemize}\item[1.] \(\langle Ae_{2j},e_{2i} \rangle = p_{ij} + a \langle Ae_j,e_i \rangle \); \item[2.] \(\langle Ae_{2j},e_{2i-1} \rangle = q_{ij} + b \langle Ae_j,e_i \rangle\); \item[3.] \(\langle Ae_{2j-1},e_{2i} \rangle = v_{ij} + c \langle Ae_j,e_i \rangle\); \item[4.] \(\langle Ae_{2j-1},e_{2i-1} \rangle = w_{ij} + d \langle Ae_j,e_i \rangle\). \end{itemize}} It follows that the solutions \(A\) of the above system of equations introduces a new class of infinite matrices whose entries are related ``dyadically'', in the sense that any solution \(A\) is determined by the entries \(a_{00},a_{01},a_{10}\) and \(a_{11}\). The system of equations given above arises from the study of bounded operators on \(\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})\) commuting with a special case of the so-called slant Toeplitz operator [\textit{M. C. Ho}, Mich. Math. J. 44, No.~1, 157--166 (1997; Zbl 0907.47017)]. In the paper under review, the author shows that the explicit construction of these matrices can be carried out in a systematic way by applying the theory of Hardy classes of operators.
