Review text

A bounded linear operator \(T\) on a complex Hilbert space \(H\) is called \(2\)-isometry if \[0=I-2T^*T+{T^*}^2T^2.\] Obviously, any \(2\)-isometry operator \(T\) is left invertible and thus \(T^*T\) is invertible. The so-called Cauchy dual operator of \(T\) is then given by \(T^{'}:=T(T^*T)^{-1}\). The Cauchy dual subnormality problem asks whether the Cauchy dual operator \(T^{'}\) of any \(2\)-isometry operator \(T\) is subnormal. Recently, it was shown in [the authors, J. Funct. Anal. 277, No. 12, Article ID 108292, 51 p. (2019; Zbl 1476.47018)] that this problem has a negative solution. In the paper under review, the authors show that it has a negative solution even in the class of cyclic \(2\)-isometric operators. The counterexample is implemented with the help of a weighted composition operator on \(L^2\) space over a directed graph with a circuit.
