We study an abstract linear operator equation on a Banach space by using the inverse of the sum of two sectorial operators. We prove that the boundedness of a special type of operator valued $H^\infty$-calculus is sufficient for maximal…
We show a Kalton-Weis type theorem for the general case of non-commuting operators. More precisely, we consider sums of two possibly non-commuting linear operators defined in a Banach space such that one of the operators admits a bounded…
We develop a very general operator-valued functional calculus for operators with an $H^{\infty}-$calculus. We then apply this to the joint functional calculus of two commuting sectorial operators when one has an $H^{\infty}$calculus. Using…
Let $A$ be a $0$-sectorial operator with a bounded $H^\infty(\Sigma\_\sigma)$-calculus for some $\sigma \in (0,\pi),$ e.g. a Laplace type operator on $L^p(\Omega),\: 1 < p < \infty,$ where $\Omega$ is a manifold or a graph. We show that $A$…
We provide a sharp and optimal generic bound for the angle of the sectorial form associated to a non-symmetric second-order elliptic differential operator with various boundary conditions. Consequently this gives an, in general, sharper…
In the present paper we give results on the closedness and the self-adjointness of the sum of two unbounded operators. We present a new approach to these fundamental questions in operator theory. We also prove a new version of the Fuglede…
In this paper we give and prove a criterion for the normality of unbounded closed operators, which is a sort of a maximality result which will be called "double maximality". As applications, we show, under some assumptions, that the sum of…
In the first part of the note we prove that a sufficient condition (due to Simons) for the convexity of the closure of the domain/range of a monotone operator is also necessary when the operator has bounded domain and is maximal. Simons'…
In this note we provide regularity conditions of closedness type which guarantee some surjectivity results concerning the sum of two maximal monotone operators by using representative functions. The first regularity condition we give…
Let $A$ and $B$ be sectorial operators in a Banach space $X$ of angles $\omega_A$ and $\omega_B$, respectively, where $\omega_A+\omega_B<\pi$. We present a simple and common approach to results on closedness of the operator sum $A+B$, based…
We consider the Stokes resolvent problem in a two-dimensional bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ subject to homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. We prove $\mathrm{L}^p$-resolvent estimates for $p$ satisfying the condition $\lvert 1 / p…
Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a space of homogeneous type and $p(\cdot):X\to[1,\infty]$ be a variable exponent. We show that if the measure $\mu$ is Borel-semiregular and reverse doubling, then the condition ${\rm ess\,inf}_{x\in X}p(x)>1$ is…
This paper presents necessary and sufficient conditions for a positive bounded operator on a separable Hilbert space to be the sum of a finite or infinite collection of projections (not necessarily mutually orthogonal), with the sum…
The primary purpose of this paper is to investigate the question of invertibility of the sum of operators. The setting is bounded and unbounded linear operators. Some interesting examples and consequences are given. As an illustrative…
We provide a sufficient condition for a finite number of closed subspaces of a Hilbert space to be linearly independent and their sum to be closed. Under this condition a formula for the orthogonal projection onto the sum is given. We also…
We give a new proof of a characterization of the closeness of the range of a continuous linear operator and of the closeness of the sum of two closed vector subspaces of a Banach space. Then we state sufficient conditions for the closeness…
Extending the methods developed in the author's previous paper and using adapted coordinate systems in two variables, an L^p boundedness theorem is proven for maximal operators over hypersurfaces in R^3 when p > 2. When the best possible p…
We consider divergence form operators with complex coefficients on an open subset of Euclidean space. Boundary conditions in the corresponding parabolic problem are dynamical, that is, the time derivative appears on the boundary. As a…
We consider second order elliptic operators with real, nonsymmetric coefficient functions which are subject to mixed boundary conditions. The aim of this paper is to provide uniform resolvent estimates for the realizations of these…
We provide several perturbation theorems regarding closable operators on a real or complex Hilbert space. In particular we extend some classical results due to Hess--Kato, Kato--Rellich and W\"ust. Our approach involves ranges of matrix…
