We investigate the local preservation of $A$-orthogonality at a point by $A$-bounded operators within the semi-Hilbertian framework induced by a positive operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $\mathbb{H}.$ We provide complete characterizations of…
Orthogonality in model theory captures the idea of absence of non-trivial interactions between definable sets. We introduce a somewhat opposite notion of cohesiveness, capturing the idea of interaction among all parts of a given definable…
The first steps towards linearisation of partial orders and equivalence relations are described. The definitions of partial orders and equivalence relations (on sets) are formulated in a way that is standard in category theory and that…
Given a nonempty set $\mathcal{L}$ of linear orders, we say that the linear order $L$ is $\mathcal{L}$-convex embeddable into the linear order $L'$ if it is possible to partition $L$ into convex sets indexed by some element of $\mathcal{L}$…
The main goal of this paper is to show that a (not necessarily densely defined or closed) symmetric operator $A$ acting on a real or complex Hilbert space is selfadjoint exactly when $I+A^2$ is a full range operator.
In the context of operator valued W*-free probability theory, we study Haar unitaries, R-diagonal elements and circular elements. Several classes of Haar unitaries are differentiated from each other. The term bipolar decomposition is used…
We consider several ways of decomposing models into parts of bounded size forming a congruence over a base, and show that admitting any such decomposition is equivalent to mutual algebraicity at the level of theories. We also show that a…
The linearized Boltzmann collision operator is fundamental in many studies of the Boltzmann equation and its main properties are of substantial importance. The decomposition into a sum of a positive multiplication operator, the collision…
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…
Building on techniques used in the case of the disc, we use a variety of methods to develop formulae for the adjoints of composition operators on Hardy spaces of the upper half-plane. In doing so, we prove a slight extension of a known…
Given a contraction A on a Hilbert space H, an operator T on H is said to be A-invariant if <Tx,x>=<TAx,Ax> for every x in H such that ||Ax||=||x||. In the special case in which both defect indices of A are equal to 1, we show that every…
Contrary to the simple structure of the tensor product of the quaternionic Hilbert space, the octonionic situation becomes more involved. It turns out that an octonionic Hilbert space can be decomposed as an orthogonal direct sum of two…
An orthoset (also called an orthogonality space) is a set $X$ equipped with a symmetric and irreflexive binary relation $\perp$, called the orthogonality relation. In quantum physics, orthosets play a central role. In fact, a Hilbert space…
We study approximations of compact linear multivariate operators defined over Hilbert spaces. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions on various notions of tractability. These conditions are mainly given in terms of sums of certain…
The basic ingredients of the consistent histories approach to quantum mechanics are the space of histories and the space of decoherence functionals. In this work we extend the classification theorem for decoherence functionals proven by…
Proper splittings of operators are commonly used to study the convergence of iterative processes. In order to approximate solutions of operator equations, in this article we deal with proper splittings of closed range bounded linear…
Consider a_1,a_2,...,a_n, arbitrary elements of R. We characterize those real functions f that decompose into the sum of a_j-periodic functions, i.e., f=f_1+...+f_n with D_{a_j}f(x):=f(x+a_j)-f(x)=0. We show that f has such a decomposition…
We give a generalization of the Jordan canonical form theorem for a class of bounded linear operators on complex separable Hilbert spaces in terms of direct integrals. Precisely, we study the uniqueness of strongly irreducible…
Sufficient and necessary conditions on the spectral measure of a self-adjoint operator $A$, acting in a Hilbert space, are obtained, under which for any continuous scalar function the operator function $\phi(A+\gamma B)$ is holomorphic with…
A graph is said to be orthogonalisable if the set of real symmetric matrices whose off-diagonal pattern is prescribed by its edges contains an orthogonal matrix. We determine some necessary and some sufficient conditions on the sizes of the…
