Forms of biisometric operators and biorthogonality

Abstract: The paper proves two results involving a pair (A,B) of P-biisometric or (m,P)-biisometric Hilbert-space operators for arbitrary positive integer m and positive operator P. It is shown that if A and B are power bounded and the pair (A,B) is (m,P)-biisometric for some m, then it is a P-biisometric pair. The important case when P is invertible is treated in detail. It is also shown that if (A,B) is P-biisometric, then there are biorthogonal sequences with respect to the inner product <.;.>_P=<P.;.> that have a shift-like behaviour with respect to this inner product.
