It extends the analysis of such operators generated by scalar rational functions with poles on T found in [11,12,13]. A Wiener-Hopf type factorization of rational matrix functions with poles and zeroes on T is proved and then used to analyze the Fredholm properties of such Toeplitz-like operators. A formula for the index, based on the factorization, is given. Furthermore, it is shown that the determinant of the matrix function having no zeroes on T is not sufficient for the Toeplitz-like operator to be Fredholm, in contrast to the classical case.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-05-29T13:22:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47B35", "47A53", "47A68" ], "keywords": [ "toeplitz-like operator", "rational matrix symbol", "fredholm properties", "unit circle", "rational matrix function" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
