In this survey, we shall present characterizations of some distinguished classes of Hilbertian bounded linear operators (namely, normal operators, selfadjoint operators, and unitary operators) in terms of operator inequalities related to…

To every bounded linear operator $A$ between Hilbert spaces $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{K}$ three cardinals $\iota_r(A)$, $\iota_i(A)$ and $\iota_f(A)$ and a binary number $\iota_b(A)$ are assigned in terms of which the descriptions of the…

In this paper we consider shift operators, self-adjoint, unitary and normal operators on the standard module over a unital C*-algebra A. We define various generalized spectra in A of these operators, give description of such spectra of…

For $n$-normal operators $A$ [2, 4, 5], equivalently $n$-th roots $A$ of normal Hilbert space operators, both $A$ and $A^*$ satisfy the Bishop--Eschmeier--Putinar property $(\beta)_{\epsilon}$, $A$ is decomposable and the quasi-nilpotent…

In his monograph on Infinite Abelian Groups, I. Kaplansky raised three ``test problems" concerning their structure and multiplicity. As noted by Azoff, these problems make sense for any category admitting a direct sum operation. Here, we…

Kadison and Kastler introduced a natural metric on the collection of all C*-subalgebras of the bounded operators on a separable Hilbert space. They conjectured that sufficiently close algebras are unitarily conjugate. We establish this…

We continue our study of the general theory of possibly nonselfadjoint algebras of operators on a Hilbert space, and modules over such algebras, developing a little more technology to connect `nonselfadjoint operator algebra' with the…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a separable complex Hilbert space. A conjugate-linear map $C:\mathcal{H}\to \mathcal{H}$ is called a conjugation if it is an involutive isometry. In this paper, we focus on the following interpolation problems: Let…

In this paper the concept of unbounded Fredholm operators on Hilbert C*- modules over an arbitrary C*-algebra is discussed and the Atkinson theorem is generalized for bounded and unbounded Feredholm operators on Hilbert C*-modules over…

A simple proof is provided to show that any bounded normal operator on a real Hilbert space is orthogonally equivalent to its transpose(adjoint). A structure theorem for invertible skew-symmetric operators, which is analogous to the finite…

The injective tensor product of normal representable bimodules over von Neumann algebras is shown to be normal. The usual Banach module projective tensor product of central representable bimodules over an Abelian C$^*$-algebra is shown to…

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…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex, separable Hilbert space and $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on $\mathcal{H}$. Given a unitarily-invariant norm $\| \cdot \|_u$ on…

We construct a topology on the standard Hilbert module $l^2(\mathcal A)$ over a unital $W^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$ such that any "compact" operator, (i.e.\ any operator in the norm closure of the linear span of the operators of the form…

Continuous actions of topological groups on compact Hausdorff spaces $X$ are investigated which induce almost periodic functions in the corresponding commutative C*-algebra. The unique invariant mean on the group resulting from averaging…

We consider the question of, given operators $A$, $Z$ and a sequence of invertible operators $U_n\to Z$, whether the sequence $U_nAU_n^{-1}$ is bounded in norm, as well as generalizations of this where $U_nAU_n^{-1}$ is modified by some…

We propose two interrelated advances in the theory of adjointable operators on Hilbert C*-modules. First, we give a set of equivalent, verifiable conditions characterizing positivity of general $n\times n$ block operator matrices acting on…

We study adjointable, bounded operators on the direct sum of two copies of the standard Hilbert C*-module over a unital C*-algebra A that are given by upper triangular 2 by 2 operator matrices. Using the definition of A-Fredholm and…

We initiate a study of Hilbert modules over the polynomial algebra A=C[z_1,...,z_d] that are obtained by completing A with respect to an inner product having certain natural properties. A standard Hilbert module is a finite multiplicity…

Let $(\mathcal{H}, [\cdot, \cdot ])$ be a Hilbert space and $K(\mathcal{H})$ be the $C^*$-algebra of compact operators on $\mathcal{H}$. In this paper, we present some characterizations of the norm-parallelism for elements of a Hilbert…
