We characterize weak* closed unital vector spaces of operators on a Hilbert space $H$. More precisely, we first show that an operator system, which is the dual of an operator space, can be represented completely isometrically and weak*…

We study uniform $\epsilon-$BPB approximations of bounded linear operators between Banach spaces from a geometric perspective. We show that for sufficiently small positive values of $\epsilon,$ many geometric properties like smoothness,…

For a nontrivial locally compact group $G$, and $p\in [1,\infty)$, consider the Banach algebras of $p$-pseudofunctions, $p$-pseudomeasures, $p$-convolvers, and the full group $L^p$-operator algebra. We show that these Banach algebras are…

A necessary and sufficient condition for an operator space to support a multiplication making it completely isometric and isomorphic to a unital operator algebra is proved. The condition involves only the holomorphic structure of the Banach…

If $X$ is a separable infinite dimensional Banach space, we construct a bounded and linear operator $R$ on $X$ such that $$ A_R=\{x \in X, \|R^tx\| \rightarrow \infty\} $$ is not dense and has non empty interior with the additional property…

Let $({\mathcal X},d,\mu)$ be a metric measure space satisfying both the geometrically doubling and the upper doubling conditions. Let $\rho\in (1,\infty)$, $0<p\le1\le q\le\infty$, $p\neq q$, $\gamma\in[1,\infty)$ and…

A linear operator $U$ acting boundedly on an infinite-dimensional separable complex Hilbert space $H$ is universal if every linear bounded operator acting on $H$ is similar to a scalar multiple of a restriction of $U$ to one of its…

We argue that the finiteness of quantum gravity amplitudes in fully compactified theories (at least in supersymmetric cases) leads to a bottom-up prediction for the existence of non-trivial dualities. In particular, finiteness requires the…

Let $\lambda_i (i=1,...,k)$ be any nonzero complex scalars and $\varphi_i (i=1,..,k)$ be any analytic self-maps of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$. We show that the operator $\sum_{i=1}^k\lambda_iC_{\varphi_i}$ is compact on the Bloch space…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau$ and let $S_0(\tau)$ be the algebra of all $\tau$-compact operators affiliated with $\mathcal{M}$. Let $E(\tau)\subseteq S_0(\tau)$ be a…

We consider the space of molecules endowed with the transpose version of the Chevet-Saphar norm and we identify its dual space with the space of Lipschitz strongly p-summing operators. We also extend some old results to the category of…

We study left symmetric bounded linear operators in the sense of Birkhoff-James orthogonality defined between infinite dimensional Banach spaces. We prove that a bounded linear operator defined between two strictly convex Banach spaces is…

We study composition operators on spaces of holomorphic Lipschitz functions defined on the open unit ball of a complex Banach space. Our approach is based on the linearization of the symbol through the holomorphic Lipschitz-free spaces,…

In topological equivalence, a bounded linear operator between Banach spaces - we focus on the case of Hilbert spaces - is viewed as only acting linearly and continuously between them qua different spaces with the structure of linear…

We consider the question of simultaneous extension of (pseudo)metrics defined on nonempty closed subsets of a compact metrizable space. The main result is a counterpart of the result due to K\"unzi and Shapiro for the case of extension…

We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the weak-$L^p$ boundedness, for $p \in (1,\infty)$, of a maximal operator on the infinite-dimensional torus. In the endpoint case $p=1$ we obtain the same weak-type inequality enjoyed by the…

On finite dimensional spaces, it is apparent that an operator is the product of two positive operators if and only if it is similar to a positive operator. Here, the class ${\mathcal L}^{+2}$ of bounded operators on separable infinite…

Bounded linear operators on separable Banach spaces algebraically similar to the classical Volterra operator $V$ acting on $C[0,1]$ are characterized. From this characterization it follows that $V$ does not determine the topology of…

We give sufficient conditions on an asymptotic $\ell_p$ (for $1 < p < \infty$) Banach space which ensure the space admits an operator which is not a compact perturbation of a multiple of the identity. These conditions imply the existence of…

We analyze a definition of product of Banach spaces that is naturally associated by duality with an abstract notion of space of multiplication operators. This dual relation allows to understand several constructions coming from different…
