Lecture Notes on Hardy Spaces (MA650) **Author:** Rajesh K. Srivastava A 111-page graduate course on Hardy spaces of the disc, working through Blaschke products, inner and outer functions, the factorization theorem, and Beurling's characterization of shift-invariant subspaces, with theorems proved rather than quoted. **Difficulty:** Intermediate | **Language:** English | **Price:** Free **Link:** https://www.iitg.ac.in/rksri/MA650%20Advanced%20Hardy%20Spaces%20Notes.pdf **Tags:** hardy spaces, blaschke products, inner-outer factorization, beurling theorem, complex analysis ### 3.

Linear Operators and Linear Systems: An Analytical Approach to Control Theory **Author:** Jonathan R. Partington The rigorous version of the control-engineering angle: it treats control as operator theory on Hardy spaces rather than as engineering recipes. Bridges Hardy space theory and control engineering: shift-invariant subspaces, Toeplitz and Hankel operators, the commutant lifting theorem and the gap metric, applied to stability, stabilization of linear systems, power signal spaces and delay systems. **Difficulty:** Advanced | **Language:** English | **Price:** Paid **Link:** https://www.amazon.com/dp/0521546192?tag=edmonddante07-20 **Tags:** hardy spaces, operator theory, control theory, toeplitz operators, hankel operators, linear systems ### 2. Bounded Analytic Functions **Author:** John B. Garnett Graduate text tying Hardy space theory to harmonic measure, BMO, Carleson measures and the Hilbert transform, then to interpolating sequences, Douglas algebras and Garnett's own account of the corona theorem, with substantial exercise sets. **Difficulty:** Advanced | **Language:** English | **Price:** Paid **Link:** https://www.amazon.com/dp/0387336214?tag=edmonddante07-20 **Tags:** hardy spaces, bounded analytic functions, corona theorem, carleson measures, bmo, interpolating sequences ### 3.
