For two operator pairs $(A_1,A_2)$ and $(B_1,B_2)$ we provide conditions under which there exists a $\\Gamma_3$-contraction $(S_1,S_2,P)$ such that $(A_1,A_2)$ is the fundamental operator pair of $(S_1,S_2,P)$ and $(B_1,B_2)$ is the fundamental operator pair of its adjoint $(S_1^*,S_2^*,P^*)$. We shall show that such fundamental operator pair plays pivotal role in determining a set of unitary invariants for the $\\Gamma_3$-contractions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-10-06T18:12:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "contraction", "unitary invariants", "fundamental operator pair plays pivotal", "operator pair plays pivotal role", "properties" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
