Let $X$ be a complex Banach space with $\dim X\geq3$ and $B(X)$ the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $X$. Suppose $\phi:B(X)\longrightarrow B(X)$ is a surjective map satisfying the following property: $Fix(AB)=Fix(\phi(A)\phi(B)),…

We describe fixed points of an infinite dimensional non-linear operator related to a hard core (HC) model with a countable set $\mathbb{N}$ of spin values on the Cayley tree. This operator is defined by a countable set of parameters…

We consider an $\alpha$-relaxed projection $P_A^\alpha:H\to H$ given by $P_A^\alpha(x)=\alpha P_A(x)+(1-\alpha)x$ where $\alpha\in[0,1]$ and $P_A$ is the projection onto a non-empty, convex and closed subset $A$ of the real Hilbert space…

This work develops a functional-analytic framework based on the transfinite iteration of a self-adjoint operator. Beginning with a densely defined self-adjoint operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $H$, a spectral-transform functor $\Phi$ is…

A well-known theorem of Paulsen says that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital operator algebra and $\phi:\mathcal{A}\to B(\mathcal{H})$ is a unital completely bounded homomorphism, then $\phi$ is similar to a completely contractive map $\phi'$.…

Let $\mathbb{B}_J(\mathcal H)$ denote the set of self-adjoint operators acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with spectra contained in an open interval $J$. A map $\Phi\colon\mathbb{B}_J(\mathcal H)\to {\mathbb B}(\mathcal H)_\text{sa} $…

A bounded linear operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is posinormal if there exists a positive operator $P$ such that $AA^{*} = A^{*}PA$. We show that if $A$ is posinormal with closed range, then $A^n$ is posinormal and has closed…

We prove that, if the closed unit ball of a normed space $X$ has sufficiently many extreme points, then every mapping $\Phi$ from $X$ into itself with the following property is affine: For any pair of points in $X$, there exists a (not…

A bounded linear operator $A$ on a Hilbert space is posinormal if there exists a positive operator $P$ such that $AA^{*} = A^{*}PA$. Posinormality of $A$ is equivalent to the inclusion of the range of $A$ in the range of its adjoint $A^*$.…

We present the following reflexivity-like result concerning the automorphism group of the $C^*$-algebra B(H), H being a separable Hilbert space. Let $\phi:B(H)\to B(H)$ be a multiplicative map (no linearity or continuity is assumed) which…

Assume that $Au=f,\quad (1)$ is a solvable linear equation in a Hilbert space $H$, $A$ is a linear, closed, densely defined, unbounded operator in $H$, which is not boundedly invertible, so problem (1) is ill-posed. It is proved that the…

Assuming a unitarily invariant norm $|||\cdot|||$ is given on a two-sided ideal of bounded linear operators acting on a separable Hilbert space, it induces some unitarily invariant norms $|||\cdot|||$ on matrix algebras $\mathcal{M}_n$ for…

We consider norms on a complex separable Hilbert space such that $\langle a\xi,\xi\rangle\leq\|\xi\|^2\leq\langle b\xi,\xi\rangle$ for positive invertible operators $a$ and $b$ that differ by an operator in the Schatten class. We prove that…

Completely positive trace-preserving maps $S$, also known as quantum channels, arise in quantum physics as a description of how the density operator $\rho$ of a system changes in a given time interval, allowing not only for unitary…

This work characterizes the general form of a bijective linear map $\Psi:\mathscr{M}_n(\mathbb{C}) \to \mathscr{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ such that $[\Psi(A_1),~\Psi(A_2)]=D_2$ whenever $[A_1,~A_2]=D_1$ where $D_1~\text{and}~D_2$ are fixed…

We describe the structure of all bijective maps on the cone of positive definite operators acting on a finite and at least two-dimensional complex Hilbert space which preserve the quantum $\chi_\alpha^2$-divergence for some $\alpha \in…

In this paper we generalize a specific quantized convexity structure of the generalized state space of a $C^*$-algebra and examine the associated extreme points. We introduce the notion of $P$-$C^*$-convex subsets, where $P$ is any positive…

If $f:[a,b]\to \mathbb{R}$, with $a<b$, is continuous and such that $a$ and $b$ are mapped in opposite directions by $f$, then $f$ has a fixed point in $I$. Suppose that $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ is map and $X$ is a continuum. We extend…

We study pointwise-generalized-inverses of linear maps between C$^*$-algebras. Let $\Phi$ and $\Psi$ be linear maps between complex Banach algebras $A$ and $B$. We say that $\Psi$ is a pointwise-generalized-inverse of $\Phi$ if…

Given any separable complex Hilbert space, any trace-class operator $B$ which does not have purely imaginary trace, and any generator $L$ of a norm-continuous one-parameter semigroup of completely positive maps we prove that there exists a…
