In this paper, we obtain some characterizations of the (strong) Birkhoff--James orthogonality for elements of Hilbert $C^*$-modules and certain elements of $\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$. Moreover, we obtain a kind of Pythagorean relation for…

Let H be a complex Hilbert space of dimension no less than 2 and B(H) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on H. We give the form of surjective maps on B(H) preserving c-numerical range of operator products when the maps satisfy…

We give new necessary and sufficient conditions for the numerical range $W(T)$ of an operator $T \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ to be a subset of the closed elliptical set $K_\delta \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ given by \[ K_\delta {\stackrel{\rm…

Let $T$ be an adjointable operator between two Hilbert $C^*$-modules and $T^*$ be the adjoint operator of $T$. The polar decomposition of $T$ is characterized as $T=U(T^*T)^\frac12$ and $\mathcal{R}(U^*)=\overline{\mathcal{R}(T^*)}$, where…

In this paper we consider A-Fredholm and semi-A-Fredholm operators on Hilbert C*-modules over a W*-algebra A defined in [3],[10]. Using the assumption that A is a W*-algebra (and not an arbitrary C*-algebra), we obtain several results such…

We generalize the $C$-numerical range $W_C(T)$ from trace-class to Schatten-class operators, i.e. to $C\in\mathcal B^p(\mathcal H)$ and $T\in\mathcal B^q(\mathcal H)$ with $1/p + 1/q = 1$, and show that its closure is always star-shaped…

We provide sufficient and necessary conditions guaranteeing equations $(A+B)^*=A^*+B^*$ and $(AB)^*=B^*A^*$ concerning densely defined unbounded operators $A,B$ between Hilbert spaces. We also improve the perturbation theory of selfadjoint…

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…

Given a Hilbert module $H$ over a $C^*$-algebra, let $\mathcal{L}(H)$ be the set of all adjointable operators on $H$. For each $T\in\mathcal{L}(H)$, its numerical radius is defined by $w(T)=\sup\big\{\|\langle Tx, x \rangle\|: x\in H,…

Let $H_1$, $H_2$ be complex Hilbert spaces. A bounded linear operator $T : H_1 \to H_2$ is said to be norm attaining if there exists a unit vector $x \in H_1$ such that $\|Tx\| = \|T\|$. If $T|_{M} : M \to H_2$ is norm attaining for every…

We prove that a bounded linear Hilbert space operator has the unit circle in its essential approximate point spectrum if and only if it admits an orbit satisfying certain orthogonality and almost-orthogonality relations. This result is…

Let $\cal M$ be a Banach C*-module over a C*-algebra $A$ carrying two $A$-valued inner products $< .,. >_1$, $<.,. >_2$ which induce equivalent to the given one norms on $\cal M$. Then the appropriate unital C*-algebras of adjointable…

Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space with a fixed orthonormal basis. Let $\mathbb B^{(k)}(H)$ denote the set of operators, whose matrices have no more than $k$ non-zero entries in each line and in each column. The closure of the union (over…

The parallel sum for adjoinable operators on Hilbert $C^*$-modules is introduced and studied. Some results known for matrices and bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces are generalized to the case of adjointable operators on Hilbert…

Normality of bounded and unbounded adjointable operators are discussed. Suppose $T$ is an adjointable operator between Hilbert C*-modules which has polar decomposition, then $T$ is normal if and only if there exists a unitary operator $…

Considering the deeper reasons of the appearance of a remarkable counterexample by J.~Kaad and M.~Skeide [17] we consider situations in which two Hilbert C*-modules $M \subset N$ with $M^\bot = \{ 0 \}$ over a fixed C*-algebra $A$ of…

For a Gaussian measure on a separable Hilbert space with covariance operator $C$, we show that the family of conditional measures associated with conditioning on a closed subspace $S^{\perp}$ are Gaussian with covariance operator the short…

If $T$ is a semibounded self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space $(H, \, (\cdot , \cdot))$ then the closure of the sesquilinear form $(T \cdot , \cdot)$ is a unique Hilbert space completion. In the non-semibounded case a closure is a…

We study orthogonally additive operators between Riesz spaces without the Dedekind completeness assumption on the range space. Our first result gives necessary and sufficient conditions on a pair of Riesz spaces $(E,F)$ for which every…

Given an essential ideal $J\subset A$ of a C*-algebra $A$, and a Hilbert C*-module $M$ over $A$, we place $M$ between two other Hilbert C*-modules over $A$, $M_J\subset M\subset M^J$, in such a way that each submodule here is thick, i.e.…
