Summary: Special classes of functions on the classical semigroup ${\bbb N} $ of non-negative integers, arising through the mechanism of difference operators, can be associated in a natural way with special classes of bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces. The interplay among the theories of special classes of functions on ${\bbb N}$ gets mirrored in the interaction among the associated classes of operators and leads to a fruitful synthesis of the theory of harmonic analysis on semigroups with operator theory. The present paper is a specific illustration of that theme.
