We study linear problems defined on tensor products of Hilbert spaces with an additional (anti-) symmetry property. We construct a linear algorithm that uses finitely many continuous linear functionals and show an explicit formula for its…
A pre-order and equivalence relation on the class of positive real Hilbert space operators are introduced, in correspondence with similar relations for contraction operators defined by Yu.L. Shmul'yan in [7]. It is shown that the pre-order,…
We prove for an arbitrary complex $^*$-algebra $A$ that every topologically irreducible $^*$-representation of $A$ on a Hilbert space is finite dimensional precisely when the Lebesgue decomposition of representable positive functionals over…
We discuss linear algebra of infinite-dimensional vector spaces in terms of algebraic (Hamel) bases. As an application we prove the surjectivity of a large class of linear partial differential operators with smooth ($\mathcal…
This paper deals with well-known higher-order generalizations of Hankel operators. We show that higher-order Hankel operators can be written explicitly as linear differential operators, and give the exact form of these differential…
We develop general expressions for the raising and lowering operators that belong to the orthogonal polynomials of hypergeometric type with discrete and continuous variable. We construct the creation and annihilation operators that…
Given bounded selfadjoint operators $A$ and $B$ acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, consider the linear pencil $P(\lambda)=A+\lambda B$, $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$. The set of parameters $\lambda$ such that $P(\lambda)$ is a positive…
A known characterization for entire functions that preserve all nonnegative matrices of order two is shown to characterize polynomials that preserve nonnegative matrices of order two. Equivalent conditions are derived and used to prove that…
We characterize all linear operators on finite or infinite-dimensional polynomial spaces that preserve the property of having the zero set inside a prescribed region $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{C}$ for arbitrary closed circular domains…
We study operators of the form $$ L=\sum_{|\alpha|,|\beta|\le n} D^\alpha c_{\alpha,\beta} D^\beta, x\in\mathbb R^n $$ provided that the coefficients of the main symbol corresponding to the indices $|\alpha|=|\beta|=m$ are continuous while…
Each bounded operator T on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H is a sum of three operators that are similar to positive operators; two such operators are sufficient if T is not a compact perturbation of a scalar. The spectra of L\"uders…
A well-known result going back to the 1930s states that all bounded linear operators mapping scalar-valued $L^1$-spaces into $L^\infty$-spaces are kernel operators and that in fact this relation induces an isometric isomorphism between the…
This is the final part of a series of papers where we study perturbations of divergence form second order elliptic operators $-\operatorname{div} A \nabla$ by first and zero order terms, whose complex coefficients lie in critical spaces,…
We determine the group of linear transformations on a vector space $V$ that preserve a polynomial function $f$ on $V$ for several interesting pairs $(V,f)$, using the theory of semisimple algebraic groups.
We provide a characterization of the finite dimensionality of vector spaces in terms of the right-sided invertibility of linear operators on them.
This paper is a detailed study of finite-dimensional modules defined on bicomplex numbers. A number of results are proved on bicomplex square matrices, linear operators, orthogonal bases, self-adjoint operators and Hilbert spaces, including…
In this article, we study strictly elliptic, second-order differential operators on a bounded Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$, subject to certain non-local Wentzell-Robin boundary conditions. We prove that such operators generate…
For self-adjoint Hankel operators of finite rank, we find an explicit formula for the total multiplicity of their negative and positive spectra. We also show that very strong perturbations, for example, a perturbation by the Carleman…
We prove that, for every separable complex Hilbert space $H$, every weak-2-local $^*$-derivation on $B(H)$ is a linear $^*$-derivation. We also establish that every (non-necessarily linear nor continuous) weak-2-local derivation on a finite…
We introduce and study a notion of dually Lorentzian polynomials, and show that if $s$ is non-zero and dually Lorentzian then the operator \[s(\partial_{x_1},\ldots,\partial_{x_n}):\mathbb R[x_1,\ldots,x_n] \to \mathbb R[x_1,\ldots,x_n]\]…
