Abstract

The Lifting Problem for Commuting Subnormals (LPCS) asks for necessary and sufficient conditions for a pair of subnormal operators on Hilbert space to admit commuting normal extensions. Given a 2-variable weighted shift T with diagonal core, we prove that LPCS is soluble for T if and only if LPCS is soluble for some power Tm(m∈Z+2,m≡(m1,m2),m1,m2≥1). We do this by first developing the basic properties of diagonal cores, and then analyzing how a diagonal core interacts with the rest of the 2-variable weighted shift.
