Nathan S. Feldman's Research


RESEARCH INTERESTS:
My research area is in operator theory and complex analysis.  More precisely, I study linear operators on Hilbert space that are "close to normal operators", such as subnormal and hyponormal operators.  Recent work involves the study of the cyclic behavior of adjoints of subnormal and hyponormal operators, the dynamics of linear operators and tuples of operators, finding subnormal generators of C*-algebras, and invariant subspaces for multiplication by z on the Hardy space of the slit disk.
