Given a Hilbert space operator $T$, the level sets of function $\Psi_T(z)=\|(T-z)^{-1}\|^{-1}$ determine the so-called pseudospectra of $T$. We set $\Psi_T$ to be zero on the spectrum of $T$. After giving some elementary properties of…

It is shown that the numerical range of a linear operator operator in a Hilbert space is a (complete) $(1{+}\sqrt2)$-spectral set. The proof relies, among other things, in the behavior of the Cauchy transform of the conjugates of…

Dynamical sampling deals with representations of a frame $\{ f_k \}_{k=1}^\infty$ as an orbit $\{ T^n \varphi \}_{n=0}^\infty$ of a linear and possibly bounded operator $T$ acting on the underlying Hilbert space. It is known that the desire…

This study investigates the $A$-$q$-numerical range of an operator within the framework of semi-Hilbertian spaces. Several fundamental properties of the $A$-$q$-numerical range are established, including spectral inclusion results and a…

Let A be a unital maximal full algebra of operator fields with base space the k-cube [0,1]^k and fibre algebras, say, {A_t}_{t \in [0,1]^k}. Then the stable rank of A is bounded above by the supremum of the stable ranks sr(C([0,1]^k)…

Given sparse collections of measurable sets $\mathcal S_k$, $k=1,2,\ldots ,N$, in a general measure space $(X,\mathfrak M,\mu)$, let $ \Lambda_{\mathcal S_k}$ be the sparse operator, corresponding to $\mathcal S_k$. We show that the maximal…

We investigate the generalized quadratic operator defined by $$T =\left( \begin{array}{cc} a I_H & A \\ c A^* & bI_K \end{array} \right) ,$$ where $H$ and $K$ are Hilbert spaces, $A:K\to H$ is a bounded linear operator, $I_H$ and $I_K$…

A local numerical range is analyzed for a family of circulant observables and states of composite $2 \otimes d$ systems. It is shown that for any $2\otimes d$ circulant operator $\cal O$ there exists a basis giving rise to the matrix…

We prove that for every bounded linear operator $T:X\to X$, where $X$ is a non-reflexive quotient of a von Neumann algebra, the point spectrum of $T^*$ is non-empty (i.e. for some $\lambda\in\mathbb C$ the operator $\lambda I-T$ fails to…

In this article, we are going to introduce the weighted numerical range which is a further generalization both the c-numerical range and the rank k numerical range. If the boundaries of weighted numerical ranges of two matrices (possibly of…

Given an operator system $\mathcal{S}$, we define the parameters $r_k(\mathcal{S})$ (resp. $d_k(\mathcal{S})$) defined as the maximal value of the completely bounded norm of a unital $k$-positive map from an arbitrary operator system into…

This paper discusses the convexity of the range of the Berezin transform. For a bounded operator $T$ acting on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $H$ (on a set $X$), this is the set $B(T) : = \{ < Tk_x, k_x >_H : x \in X \}$, where $k_x$ is…

We investigate expansive Hilbert space operators $T$ that are finite rank perturbations of isometric operators. If the spectrum of $T$ is contained in the closed unit disc $\overline{\mathbb{D}}$, then such operators are of the form $T=…
