Abstract:
A general procedure is constructed, which allows us to consider operators of convolution with measures acting on a large class of spaces of distributions on the segment
$[0,a)$,
$0<a<\infty$. It is proved that if a measure
$\mu$ is a weak generator of the algebra of measures on
$[0,a)$, then
$C_\mu$ (the operator of convolution with
$\mu$) is unicellular. We present a condition on the measure
$\mu$ under which unicellularity of
$C_\mu$ implies that
$\mu$ is a weak generator of the algebra of measures. The following statement is proved as well. Let
$\theta(z)=e^{-a\frac{1+z}{1-z}}$,
$K_\theta=H^2\ominus\theta H^2$, and let
$P_\theta$ be the orthogonal projection from
$H^2$ onto
$K_\theta$; moreover, let
$\mu$ be a weak generator of the algebra of measures on
$[0,a)$ and $\varphi(z)=(\mathcal F^{-1}\mu)(i\frac{z+1}{z-1})$,
$z\in\mathbb D$ (here
$\mathbb D$ is the unit disc, and
$\mathcal F^{-1}$ is the inverse Fourier transform). Let
$\psi\in H^\infty$ and let
$p$ be a polynomial such that
$p\circ(\psi-\varphi)\in\theta H^\infty$. Then the operator
$x\mapsto P_\theta\psi x$ acting in
$K_\theta$ is unicellular. Bibliography: 13 titles.
