Conjugations in \(L^2(\mathcal{H})\) (Q830662)

Let \(L_2=L_2(\mathbb T,\mathfrak{m})\) (resp., \(L_\infty=L_\infty(\mathbb T,\mathfrak{m})\)) be the space of square-integrable (resp., bounded) functions on \(\mathbb T\) (the unit circle) w.r.t the normalized Lebesgue measure \(\mathfrak{m}\). Let \(\mathbf{M}_z=\begin{bmatrix} M_z & 0 \\ 0 & M_z \end{bmatrix}\) where \(M_z\) is the operator defined on \(L_2\) of multiplication by \(z\in L_\infty\). Let \((\mathcal{H},\langle\cdot\rangle_{\mathcal{H}})\) be a complex Hilbert space. We say that \(C:\mathcal{H}\to\mathcal{H}\) is a conjugation in \(\mathcal{H}\) if it is an antilinear isometric involution and \(\langle Cf,Cg\rangle_{\mathcal{H}}=\langle g,f\rangle_{\mathcal{H}}\) for all \((f,g)\in\mathcal{H}^2\) and we denote \(\mathbf{C}=\begin{bmatrix} D_1& D_2 \\ D_3 & D_4 \end{bmatrix}\) where \((D_j)_{1\le j\le 4}\) are antilinear operators on \(\mathcal{H}.\) The purpose of the authors is to characterize all \(\mathbf{M}_z\)-conjugations \(\mathbf{C}\) in \(L_2(\mathcal{H})\) and all \(\mathbf{M}_z\)-commuting conjugations in \(L_2(\mathcal{H})\). Also, the authors study these conjugations for which vector valued model spaces are invariant.
