In this paper we obtain estimates for the first nontrivial eigenvalue of the $p$-Laplace Neumann operator in bounded simply connected planar domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^2$. This study is based on a quasiconformal version of the…

Paszkiewicz's conjecture asserts that given a decreasing sequence $T_1\ge T_2\ge \dots$ of positive contractions on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$, the product $S_n=T_nT_{n-1}\cdots T_1$ converges in the strong operator…

Whether an almost-commuting pair of operators must be close to a commuting pair is a central question in operator and matrix theory. We investigate this problem for pairs of $C^*$-subalgebras $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ of…

We determine when a quasi-isometry between discrete spaces is at bounded distance from a bilipschitz map. From this we prove a geometric version of the Von Neumann conjecture on amenability. We also get some examples in geometric groups…

We prove that a finite von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal A}$ is semisimple if the algebra of affiliated operators ${\mathcal U}$ of ${\mathcal A}$ is semisimple. When ${\mathcal A}$ is not semisimple, we give the upper and lower bounds for the…

Covering ill-posed problems with compact and non-compact operators regarding the degree of ill-posedness is a never ending story written by many authors in the inverse problems literature. This paper tries to add a new narrative and some…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau$ and let $S_0(\tau)$ be the algebra of all $\tau$-compact operators affiliated with $\mathcal{M}$. Let $E(\tau)\subseteq S_0(\tau)$ be a…

We prove several trace inequalities that extend the Golden-Thompson and the Araki-Lieb-Thirring inequality to arbitrarily many matrices. In particular, we strengthen Lieb's triple matrix inequality. As an example application of our four…

We prove the Michael-Simon-Sobolev inequality for smooth symmetric uniformly positive definite (0, 2)-tensor fields on compact submanifolds with or without boundary in Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvature by the…

Let $X$ be a locally compact Hausdorff space with $n$ proper continuous self maps $\tau_i:X \to X$ for $1 \le i \le n$. To this we associate two topological conjugacy algebras which emerge as the natural candidates for the universal algebra…

We generalize the classical Muckenhoupt inequality with two measures to three under appropriate conditions. As a consequence, we prove a simple characterization of the undedness of the multiplication operator and thus of the boundedness of…

This paper is concerned with the algebraic K-theory of locally convex algebras stabilized by operator ideals, and its comparison with topological K-theory. We show that the obstruction for the comparison map between algebraic and…

The Golden-Thompson trace inequality which states that $Tr\, e^{H+K} \leq Tr\, e^H e^K$ has proved to be very useful in quantum statistical mechanics. Golden used it to show that the classical free energy is less than the quantum one. Here…

Consider the $\mathcal{B}$-valued probability space $(\mathcal{A}, E, \mathcal{B})$, where $\mathcal{A}$ is a tracial von Neumann algebra. We extend the theory of operator valued free probability to the algebra of affiliated operators…

In this paper we investigate asymmetric forms of Doob maximal inequality. The asymmetry is imposed by noncommutativity. Let $(\M,\tau)$ be a noncommutative probability space equipped with a weak-$*$ dense filtration of von Neumann…

An old conjecture in non-K\"ahler geometry states that, if a compact Hermitian manifold has constant holomorphic sectional curvature, then the metric must be K\"ahler (when the constant is non-zero) or Chern flat (when the constant is…

We estimate the norm of the almost Mathieu operator $H_{\theta,\lambda} =U+U^*+(\lambda /2)(V+V^*)$ in the rotation $C^*$-algebra $A_\theta =C^*(U,V unitaries;UV=e^{2\pi i\theta} VU)$. In this process, we significantly improve the…

It is shown that the algebra \(L^\infty(\mu)\) of all bounded measurable functions with respect to a finite measure \(\mu\) is localizing on the Hilbert space \(L^2(\mu)\) if and only if the measure \(\mu\) has an atom. Next, it is shown…

We show that the symmetrized product $AB+BA$ of two positive operators $A$ and $B$ is positive if and only if $f(A+B)\leq f(A)+f(B)$ for all non-negative operator monotone functions $f$ on $[0,\infty)$ and deduce an operator inequality. We…

We obtain a solution to the Bessis-Moussa-Villani conjecture for a trace-class perturbation of a semi-bounded operator and answer affirmatively the question on positivity of higher order spectral shift functions in the setting of…
