Orthogonal decompositions of isometries in Hilbert $C^*$-modules

Authors:  Dan Popovici
Author institution: West University of Timisoara, Department of Mathematics, Bd. V. Parvan no. 4, 1900 Timisoara, Romania

Summary:  We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a Hilbert $C^*$-module isometry in order to obtain a Wold-type decomposition. A characterization of shift operators is obtained as a consequence.

Keywords:  Hilbert $C^*$-module, adjointable isometry, shift, Wold decomposition
