Abstract
Representations of some algebras of functions in the commutant of an almost isometric operator (i.e., a trace class perturbation of an isometry) are constructed. The properties of these representations are investigated. In particular, an analog of the class C0 for contractions is discovered: it is shown that an operator is singular (i.e., the boundary values of its resolvent from inside and outside the disk coincide) if an only if there exists a nonzero function ϕ for which ϕ(T)=0.
