Abstract

It is proved that for adjointable operators AA and BB between Hilbert CC^*-modules, certain majorization conditions are always equivalent without any assumptions on R(A)\overline{\mathcal{R}(A^*)}, where AA^* denotes the adjoint operator of AA and R(A)\overline{\mathcal{R}(A^*)} is the norm closure of the range of AA^*. In the case that R(A)\overline{{\mathcal R}(A^*)} is not orthogonally complemented, it is proved that there always exists an adjointable operator BB whose range is contained in that of AA, whereas the associated equation AX=BAX=B for adjointable operators is unsolvable.
