We show that the following operator algebras have hyperarithmetic theory: the hyperfinite II$_1$ factor $\mathcal R$, $L(\Gamma)$ for $\Gamma$ a finitely generated group with solvable word problem, $C^*(\Gamma)$ for $\Gamma$ a finitely…

We study sequences of bounded operators \((T_n)_{n \ge 0}\) on a complex separable Hilbert space \(\mathcal{H}\) that satisfy a linear recurrence relation of the form $$ T_{n+r} = A_0 T_n + A_1 T_{n+1} + \cdots + A_{r-1} T_{n+r-1}…

In connection with Eisenstein series for the principal congruence subgroup $\Gamma(n)$, Hecke introduced certain numbers, of which he said that they are rational and cumbersome to calculate. We show, however, that these numbers are…

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…

Let $\gamma = (\gamma_1,...,\gamma_N)$, $N \geq 2$, be a system of proper contractions on a complete metric space. Then there exists a unique self-similar non-empty compact subset $K$. We consider the union ${\mathcal G} = \cup_{i=1}^N…

We consider the convex set of ( unital ) positive ( completely ) maps from a $C^*$ algebra $\cla$ to a von-Neumann sub-algebra $\clm$ of $\clb(\clh)$, the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\clh$ and study its extreme…

Given a C$^*$-algebra $A$, let $S(A^+)$ denote the set of those positive elements in the unit sphere of $A$. Let $H_1$, $H_2,$ $H_3$ and $H_4$ be complex Hilbert spaces, where $H_3$ and $H_4$ are infinite-dimensional and separable. In this…

In a paper from 2016 D. R. Yafaev initiated a study of closable Hankel forms associated with the moments $(m_n)$ of a positive measure with infinite support on the real line. If $m_n=o(1)$ Yafaev characterized the closure of the form based…

We introduce a notion of joint spectrum for a tuple of compact operators on a separable Hilbert space and show that in many situations these operators commute if and only if the joint spectrum consists of countably many, locally finite,…

The matrix Sturm-Liouville operator on a finite interval with singular potential of class $W_2^{-1}$ and the general self-adjoint boundary conditions is studied. This operator generalizes the Sturm-Liouville operators on geometrical graphs.…

Let $A\colon H\rightarrow H$ be a normal operator on an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space $H$ and let $S\subseteq H$ be a finite subset such that $\{A^nx\}_{n\geq 0,\,x\in S}$ can be rescaled to form a frame for $H$. That is,…

We study singular integral operators with kernels that are more singular than standard Calder\'on-Zygmund kernels, but less singular than bi-parameter product Calder\'on-Zygmund kernels. These kernels arise as restrictions to two dimensions…
