We develop the concept of operators in Hilbert spaces which are similar to their adjoints via antiunitary operators, the latter being not necessarily involutive. We discuss extension theory, refined polar and singular-value decompositions,…
This paper aims to study reducible and irreducible approximation in the set $\textsl{CSO}$ of all complex symmetric operators on a separable, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal H$. When ${\rm dim} \mathcal H=\infty$, it is proved that both…
Let $A$ be a bounded, injective and self-adjoint linear operator on a complex separable Hilbert space. We prove that there is a pure isometry, $V$, so that $AV>0$ and $A$ is Hankel with respect to $V$, i.e. $V^*A = AV$, if and only if $A$…
In this article, we employ certain properties of the transform $C_{M,m}(A)=(MI-A^*)(A-mI)$ to obtain new inequalities for the bounded linear operator $A$ on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. In particular, we obtain new relations among…
We study the apparent tension between locality and unitarity for symmetries in quantum field theory. This emerges in the context of categorical symmetries where symmetry operators are generically non-invertible. We argue that locality…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex, separable Hilbert space (of finite or infinite dimension), and let $\mathcal{U}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the group of unitary operators on $\mathcal{H}$. A symmetry is, by definition, a unitary operator $J$ with…
We prove that an operator space is completely isometric to a ternary ring of operators if and only if the open unit balls of all of its matrix spaces are bounded symmetric domains. From this we obtain an operator space characterization of…
In this article, we prove the existence of a non-trivial hyperinvariant subspace for a subclass of compact perturbations of scalar multiple of a partial isometry. Later, we illustrate that this class contains several important classes of…
We find a class of algebras A satisfying the following property: for every nontrivial noncommutative polynomial, the linear span of all its values in A equals A. This class includes the algebras of all bounded and all compact operators on…
Akin to the idea of complete sets of Mutually Unbiased Bases for prime dimensional Hilbert spaces, $\mathcal{H}_d$, we study its analogue for a $d$ dimensional subspace of $M (d,\mathbb{C})$, i.e. Mutually Unbiased Unitary Bases (MUUBs)…
Let $E$ be a Banach space that does not contain any copy of $\ell^1$ and $\A$ be a non commutative $C^*$-algebra. We prove that every absolutely summing operator from $\A$ into $E^*$ is compact, thus answering a question of Pe\l czynski. As…
Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space and $B(H)$ the C*-algebra of bounded operators on $H.$ Suppose that $T_1,T_2,..., T_n$ are self-adjoint operators in $B(H).$ We show that, if commutators $[T_i, T_j]$ are…
Given a Banach space X and a bounded linear operator T on X, a subspace Y of X is almost invariant under T if TY is a subspace of Y+F for some finite-dimensional ``error'' F. In this paper, we study subspaces that are almost invariant under…
Answering in the affirmative a question posed in [Y.A.Abramovich, C.D.Aliprantis and O.Burkinshaw, Multiplication and compact-friendly operators, Positivity 1 (1997), 171--180], we prove that a positive multiplication operator on any…
We explore commutativity up to a factor, $AB=\lambda BA$, for bounded operators in a complex Hilbert space. Conditions on the possible values of the factor $\lambda$ are formulated and shown to depend on spectral properties of the operators…
The purpose of this note is to provide a family of explicit examples of $4$-dimensional operator systems contained in the Calkin algebra $\mathcal{Q}(\mathcal{H})$ on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ for which…
The aim of the present article is to give an introduction to the concept of quasi-unitary equivalence and to define several (pseudo-)metrics on the space of self-adjoint operators acting possibly in different Hilbert spaces. As some of the…
We illustrate an isomorphic representation of the observable algebra for quantum mechanics in terms of the functions on the projective Hilbert space, and its Hilbert space analog, with a noncommutative product in terms of explicit…
We propose an index of non-invertible symmetry operators in 1+1 dimensions and discuss its relation to the realizability of non-invertible symmetries on the tensor product of finite dimensional on-site Hilbert spaces on the lattice. Our…
We study homological structure of the filtrations of the spaces of self-adjoint operators by the multiplicity of the ground state. We consider only operators acting in a finite dimensional complex or real Hilbert space but infinite…
