Tridiagonal matrix representations of cyclic self-adjoint operators

From MaRDI portal





A bounded cyclic self-adjoint operator C, defined on a separable Hilbert space, can be represented as a tridiagonal matrix with respect to the basis generated by a cyclic vector. If the main diagonal matrix entries are zeros, C may be regarded as the real part of a weighted shift operator. Define J to be the corresponding imaginary part and it follows that \(CJ-JC=2iK\) where K is a diagonal operator. The main purpose of this paper is to show that if the subdiagonal matrix entries of C converge to a non-zero limit, and if K is of trace class, then C has an absolutely continuous part.
