Completion problem for extension of m- isometric weighted composition operators on directed graphs

TL;DR
The paper addresses how to extend finite weight data to $k$-quasi-$m$-isometric operators—specifically weighted shifts, composition operators, and weighted composition operators—on directed graphs with a single circuit and multiple branches. It develops both unweighted and DSP-based (discrete spectral) frameworks to translate quasi-isometric conditions into polynomial interpolation problems for moment sequences and Radon-Nikodym data, yielding explicit existence and construction criteria. Key contributions include general completion theorems for cases $l \le k+m-2$ and $l > k+m-2$, explicit characterizations of low-circuit $1$-quasi-$3$- and $1$-quasi-$2$-isometries on graphs, and DSP-based procedures to realize and perturb $k$-quasi-$m$-isometric weighted composition operators. Collectively, the work extends completion theory to graph-based operator classes and provides concrete, interpolation-driven methods for constructing and stabilizing such completions.
Abstract
In this paper, we discuss k-quasi-m-isometric completion problem of unilateral weighted shifts and composition operators on directed graphs with one circuit and more than one branching vertex.
