Let G be a locally compact group, M(G) denote its measure algebra and L^1(G) denote its group algebra. Also, let pi:G->U(H) be a strongly continuous unitary representation, and let CB^{sigma}(B(H)) be the space of normal completely bounded…

We present some properties of (not necessarily linear) positive maps between $C^*$-algebras. We first extend the notion of Lieb functions to that of Lieb positive maps between $C^*$-algebras. Then we give some basic properties and…

Strongly irreducible operators can be considered as building blocks for bounded linear operators on complex separable Hilbert spaces. Many bounded linear operators can be written as direct sums of at most countably many strongly irreducible…

We show that each positive map from B(K) to B(H) with K and H finite dimensional Hilbert spaces is a scalar multiple of a map of the form $Tr - \psi$ with $\psi$ completely positive. This is used to give necessary and sufficient conditions…

In this paper, we investigate the existence of fixed-point-free automorphisms for finite-dimensional Lie algebras. By a result of Jacobson, a Lie algebra admitting a fixed-point-free automorphism is solvable. We prove that such a Lie…

A new geometric proof of the spectral theorem for unbounded self-adjoint operators A in a Hilbert space H is given based on a splitting of A in positive and negative parts A+ and A-. For both operators A+ and A- the spectral family can be…

Given a sequence $(C_1,\ldots,C_d,T_1,T_2,\ldots)$ of real-valued random variables with $N := \#\{j \geq 1: T_j \not = 0\} < \infty$ almost surely, there is an associated smoothing transformation which maps a distribution $P$ on…

For a nonnegative self-adjoint operator $A_0$ acting on a Hilbert space $\mathfrak{H}$ singular perturbations of the form $A_0+V, \ V=\sum_{1}^{n}{b}_{ij}<\psi_j,\cdot>\psi_i$ are studied under some additional requirements of symmetry…

We provide a number of sharp inequalities involving the usual operator norms of Hilbert space operators and powers of the numerical radii. Based on the traditional convexity inequalities for nonnegative real numbers and some generalize…

This is an introduction to the algebras $A\subset B(H)$ that the linear operators $T:H\to H$ can form, once a complex Hilbert space $H$ is given. Motivated by quantum mechanics, we are mainly interested in the von Neumann algebras, which…

We analzye Rieffel's construction of generalized fixed point algebras in the setting of group actions on Hilbert modules. Let G be a locally compact group acting on a C*-algebra B. We construct a Hilbert module F over the reduced crossed…

We investigate composition operators $C_{\Phi}$ on the Hardy-Smirnov space $H^{2}(\Omega)$ induced by analytic self-maps $\Phi$ of an open simply connected proper subset $\Omega$ of the complex plane. When the Riemann map…

We will give an abstract characterization of an arbitrary self-adjoint weak$^*$-closed subspace of $\mathcal{L}(H)$ (equipped with the induced matrix norm, the induced matrix cone and the induced weak$^*$-topology). In order to do this, we…

For a compact surface $\Sigma$ (orientable or not, and with boundary or not) we show that the fixed subgroup, $\operatorname{Fix} B$, of any family $B$ of endomorphisms of $\pi_1(\Sigma)$ is compressed in $\pi_1(\Sigma)$ i.e.,…

If $\H$ is a Hilbert space, $A$ is a positive bounded linear operator on $\cH$ and $\cS$ is a closed subspace of $\cH$, the relative position between $\cS$ and $A^{-1}(\cS \orto)$ establishes a notion of compatibility. We show that the…
