Reference number : GC-2017-Q1-02351, amendment number : , agreement type : G, recipient legal name : Zorboska, Nina (University of Manitoba)|Zorboska, Nina (Université du Manitoba), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : Manitoba, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Discovery Grants Program - Individual, program name french : Programme de subventions à la découverte - individuelles, program purpose english : The proposed research program is in the area of mathematical analysis. Its general objective is the enhancement of knowledge in operator theory and complex analysis, and of the interactions between them. These are areas with close connections to several natural sciences and to engineering, and in most of the cases the problems are directly motivated by specific applications. 
While functions are the main objects of exploration in classical analysis, the goal of modern analysis is to explore the transformations of classes of functions. The class of functions we plan to investigate in this proposal is the reproducing kernel Banach and Hilbert spaces of analytic functions, while the transformations are the linear operators determined naturally by the structure of these spaces. Some of the well-known and widely explored examples of such spaces are the Bergman, Hardy, Dirichlet, Bloch and Besov spaces. The classes of operators in question include the multiplication, composition, Toeplitz, integral and conditional expectation operators. 
A nice property of these types of spaces is that we can use the reproducing kernels to evaluate the functions in the space at a specific point of their domain. This is what we naturally do when we attempt to reproduce a function, as accurately as possible, from an experimental process of sampling and measuring. A particularly interesting question in this context is to furthermore determine how much we can say about the properties of an operator acting on a reproducing kernel function space, by knowing how it behaves on the reproducing kernel functions. Hence, the more specific objective of the proposed program is to classify and determine the properties of a large class of operators defined naturally by reflecting the structure of the reproducing kernel function spaces that they act on, while at the same time also gaining a deeper understanding of the spaces themselves. 
The scientific approach of the proposed research program uses methods from several areas of modern and classical mathematical analysis. Beside the standard operator theoretic and complex analysis techniques, it also involves general measure theory, geometric function theory and linear algebra methods. 
The novelty in my teams approach is that we extract only few basic required properties of the spaces and the operators to be explored, and thus attempt to generalize several of the more recent classification results dealing with specific operators on specific spaces. Together with my HQP&rsquo;, I hope to derive a model which on one hand addresses problems of more general nature, and on the other, provides a deeper insight into the structure of the objects of exploration. Beside mathematics, these types of results are of interest and have direct applications in other areas of natural sciences and engineering such as quantum mechanics, quantum information, control theory, machine learning, image processing and statistics., program purpose french : The proposed research program is in the area of mathematical analysis.
