We prove that a continuous function $f:(0,\infty) \to (0,\infty)$ is operator monotone increasing if and only if $f(A \: !_t \: B) \leqs f(A) \: !_t \: f(B)$ for any positive operators $A,B$ and scalar $t \in [0,1]$. Here, $!_t$ denotes the…

Accretive and monotone operator theory are central branches of nonlinear functional analysis and constitute the abstract study of set-valued mappings between function spaces. This paper deals with the computational properties of certain…

The finite condensation $\sim_F$ is an equivalence relation defined on a linear order $L$ by $x \sim_F y$ if and only if the set of points lying between $x$ and $y$ is finite. We define an operation $\cdot_F$ on linear orders $L$ and $M$ by…

In this note we study the generalized Hilbert series operator $H_{\mu}$, induced by a positive Bore measure $\mu$ on $[0, 1)$, between weighted sequence spaces. We characterize the measures $\mu$ for which $H_{\mu}$ is bounded between…

Let $a$ and $b$ be elements of an ordered normed algebra $\mathcal A$ with unit $e$. Suppose that the element $a$ is positive and that for some $\varepsilon>0$ there exists an element $x\in \mathcal A$ with $\|x\|\leq \varepsilon$ such that…

In the general theory of quantum measurement, one associates a positive semidefinite operator on a $d$-dimensional Hilbert space to each of the $n$ possible outcomes of an arbitrary measurement. In the special case of a projective…

Let $\mu$ be a finite positive Borel measure on $[0,1)$ and $f(z)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_{n}z^{n} \in H(\mathbb{D})$. For $0<\alpha<\infty$, the generalized Ces\`aro-like operator $\mathcal{C}_{\mu,\alpha}$ is defined by $$ \mathcal…

We introduce a weakened notion of norm attainment for bounded linear operators between Banach spaces which we call \emph{quasi norm attaining operators}. An operator $T\colon X \longrightarrow Y$ between the Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ is…

In this paper we explore the properties of a bounded linear operator defined on a Banach space, in light of operator norm attainment. Using Birkhoff-James orthogonality techniques, we give a necessary condition for a bounded linear operator…

We prove an uniform boundedness principle for the Lipschitz seminorm of continuous, monotone, positively homogeneous and subadditive mappings on suitable cones of functions. The result is applicable to several classes of classically…

We consider a monotone increasing operator in an ordered Banach space having $u_-$ and $u_+$ as a strong super- and subsolution, respectively. In contrast with the well studied case $u_+ < u_-$, we suppose that $u_- < u_+$. Under the…

The problem of entanglement produced by an arbitrary operator is formulated and a related measure of entanglement production is introduced. This measure of entanglement production satisfies all properties natural for such a characteristic.…

A Hankel operator $\Gamma$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R}_+)$ is an integral operator with the integral kernel of the form $h(t+s)$, where $h$ is known as the kernel function. It is known that $\Gamma$ is positive semi-definite if and only if $h$ is…

Given a positive Borel measure $\mu$ on $[0,1)$ and a parameter $\beta>0$, we consider the Ces\`aro-type operator $\mathcal C_{\mu,\beta}$ acting on the analytic function $f(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n z^n$ on the unit disc of the complex…

In the Contextuality-by-Default theory random variables representing measurement outcomes are labeled contextually, i.e., not only by what they measure but also under what conditions (in what contexts) the measurements are made, including…

If $\mu $ is a positive Borel measure on the interval $[0, 1)$ we let $\mathcal H_\mu $ be the Hankel matrix $\mathcal H_\mu =(\mu_{n, k})_{n,k\ge 0}$ with entries $\mu_{n, k}=\mu_{n+k}$, where, for $n\,=\,0, 1, 2, \dots $, $\mu_n$ denotes…

An adjoint pair is a pair of densely defined linear operators $A, B$ on a Hilbert space such that $\langle Ax,y\rangle=\langle x,By\rangle$ for $x\in \cD(A), y \in \cD(B).$ We consider adjoint pairs for which $0$ is a regular point for both…

In this paper we define generalizations of boson normal ordering. These are based on the number of contractions whose vertices are next to each other in the linear representation of the boson operator function. Our main motivation is to…

Let $\mu$ and $\nu$ be two non-degenerate finite signed Borel measures defined on a proper convex cone of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that if all convolution powers of $\mu$ and $\nu$ are appropriately equal (and non-zero) on a proper concave…

Given a bounded operator $Q$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, a pair of bounded operators $(T_1, T_2)$ on $\mathcal{H}$ is said to be $Q$-commuting if one of the following holds: \[ T_1T_2=QT_2T_1 \text{ or }T_1T_2=T_2QT_1 \text{ or…
