Rank one perturbations and singular integral operators

We consider rank one perturbations $A_α=A+α(\cdot,φ)φ$ of a self-adjoint operator $A$ with cyclic vector $φ\in\mathcal H_{-1}(A)$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$. The spectral representation of the perturbed operator $A_α$ is given by a singular integral operator of special form. Such operators exhibit what we call 'rigidity' and are connected with two weight estimates for the Hilbert transform. Also, some results about two weight estimates of Cauchy (Hilbert) transforms are proved. In particular, it is proved that the regularized Cauchy transforms $T_\varepsilon$ are uniformly (in $\varepsilon$) bounded operators from $L^2(μ)$ to $L^2(μ_α)$, where $μ$ and $μ_α$ are the spectral measures of $A$ and $A_α$, respectively. As an application, a sufficient condition for $A_α$ to have a pure absolutely continuous spectrum on a closed interval is given in terms of the density of the spectral measure of $A$ with respect to $φ$. Some examples, like Jacobi matrices and Schrödinger operators with $L^2$ potentials are considered.
