\section{Dilations}
\label{section:bh-dilation}
\begin{definition}[Compression]
\label{definition:bh-compression}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $K \subset H$ be a closed subspace, $P \in B(H)$ be the orthogonal projection onto $K$, $S \in B(K)$, and $T \in B(H)$, then $S$ is a \textbf{compression} of $T$ if $S = PT|_K$.
\end{definition}
\begin{definition}[Dilation]
\label{definition:bh-dilation}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space and $T \in B(H)$, then a \textbf{dilation} of $T$ is a pair $(K, S)$ where:
\begin{enumerate}
\item $K$ is a Hilbert space containing $H$.
\item $S \in B(K)$.
\item If $P \in B(K)$ is the orthogonal projection onto $H$, then $T = PS|_H$.
\end{enumerate}
If $T^n = PS^n|_H$ for all $n \in \natz$, then $S$ is a \textbf{power dilation} of $T$.
\end{definition}
\begin{lemma}
\label{lemma:bh-dilation-transitive}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $R \in B(H)$, $(K, S)$ be a dilation of $R$, and $(L, T)$ be a dilation of $S$, then $(L, T)$ is a dilation of $R$.
Similarly, if $(K, S)$ is a power dilation of $T$ and $(L, T)$ is a power dilation of $S$, then $(L, T)$ is a power dilation of $R$.
\end{lemma}
\begin{theorem}[Sz.-Nagy's Dilation Theorem]
\label{theorem:sznagy-dilation}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space and $T \in B(H)$ with $\norm{T}_{B(H)} \le 1$, then there exists a unitary power dilation of $T$.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}[Proof, {{\cite[Theorem 1.1]{Paulsen}}}. ]
Using \autoref{lemma:bh-dilation-transitive} it is sufficient to show the following statements:
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\item For any $T \in B(H)$ with $\norm{T}_{B(H)} \le 1$, there exists an isometric power dilation of $T$.
\item For any isometry $V \in B(H)$, there exists a unitary power dilation of $V$.
\end{enumerate}
(i): Since $\norm{T}_{B(H)} \le 1$, $1 - T^*T \ge 0$, and $(1 - T^*T)^{1/2}$ is well-defined. Let $D_T = (1 - T^*T)^{1/2}$, and
\[
V: l^2(\natp; H) \to l^2(\natp; H) \quad (Vx)_n = \begin{cases}
Tx_1 &n = 1 \\
D_Tx_1 &n = 2 \\
x_{n-1} &n \ge 3
\end{cases}
\]
then for each $x \in H$,
\begin{align*}
\norm{Tx}_H^2 + \norm{D_Tx}_H^2 &= \dpn{T^*Tx, x}{H} + \dpn{(1 - T^*T)x, x}{H} \\
&= \dpn{x, x}{H} = \norm{x}_H^2
\end{align*}
Thus for each $x = \seq{x_n} \in l^2(H)$,
\begin{align*}
\norm{Vx}_{l^2(\natp; H)}^2 &= \norm{Tx_1}_H^2 + \norm{D_Tx_1}_H^2 + \sum_{n = 3}^\infty \norm{x_{n-1}}_H^2 \\
&= \norm{x_1}_H^2 + \sum_{n = 2}^\infty \norm{x_{n}}_H^2 = \norm{x}_{l^2(\natp; H)}^2
\end{align*}
So $V$ is an isometry. Moreover, $[V^n(x, 0, \cdots)]_1 = T^nx$ for all $n \in \natz$. Therefore under the identification that $H = \bracsn{(x, 0, \cdots)|x \in H} \subset l^2(\natp; H)$, $V$ is an isometric power dilation of $T$.
(ii): Let $P = I_H - VV^*$ be the projection onto $V(H)^\perp$, and $U \in B(H^2)$ be defined by
\[
U = \begin{bmatrix}
V & P \\
0 & V^*
\end{bmatrix}
\]
then
\begin{align*}
UU^* &= \begin{bmatrix}
V & P \\
0 & V^*
\end{bmatrix} \cdot
\begin{bmatrix}
V^* & 0 \\
P & V
\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}
VV^* + P & PV \\
V^*P & V^*V
\end{bmatrix} = I_{H^2} \\
U^*U &= \begin{bmatrix}
V^* & 0 \\
P & V
\end{bmatrix} \cdot
\begin{bmatrix}
V & P \\
0 & V^*
\end{bmatrix}
= \begin{bmatrix}
V^*V & V^*P \\
PV & VV^* + P
\end{bmatrix} = I_{H^2} \\
\end{align*}
so $U$ is unitary. Moreover, for each $n \in \natp$,
\[
U^n = \begin{bmatrix}
V & P \\
0 & V^*
\end{bmatrix}^n = \begin{bmatrix}
V^n & \cdots \\
0 & (V^*)^n
\end{bmatrix}
\]
Under the identification that $H = \bracsn{(x, 0)|x \in H} \subset H^2$, $QU^n|_{H} = V^n$ for all $n \in \natp$. Therefore $U$ is a unitary power dilation of $V$.
\end{proof}
\begin{theorem}[Von Neumann's Inequality]
\label{theorem:von-neumann-inequality-polynomial}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space and $T \in B(H)$ with $\norm{T}_{B(H)} \le 1$, then for any $p \in \complex[x]$,
\[
\norm{p(T)}_{B(H)} \le \sup_{z \in B_\complex(0, 1)}|p(z)|
\]
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}[Proof, {{\cite[Corollary 1.2]{Paulsen}}}. ]
By \hyperref[Sz.-Nagy's Dilation Theorem]{theorem:sznagy-dilation}, there exists a Hilbert space $K \supset H$ and a unitary operator $U \in B(K)$ such that $T^n = P_HU^n|_H$ for all $n \in \natp$, where $P_H$ is the orthogonal projection onto $H$.
Thus for any $p \in \complex[x]$, $p(T) = P_Hp(U)|_H$. As $U$ is unitary, the \hyperref[continuous functional calculus]{definition:continuous-functional-calculus} shows that $\norm{p(U)}_{B(K)} \le \sup_{z \in B_\complex(0, 1)}|p(z)|$. Therefore $\norm{p(T)}_{B(H)} \le \sup_{z \in B_\complex(0, 1)}|p(z)|$.
\end{proof}
