We explore aspects of dilation theory in the finite dimensional case and show that for a commuting $n$-tuple of operators $T=(T_1,...,T_n) $ acting on some finite dimensional Hilbert space $H$ and a compact set $X\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ the…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and let $\big\{A_{n}\big\}_{n\geq 1}$ be a sequence of bounded linear operators on $\mathcal{H}$. Then a bounded operator $B$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{K} \supseteq \mathcal{H}$ is said to be…

Researchers have identified complex matrices $A$ such that a bounded linear operator $B$ acting on a Hilbert space will admit a dilation of the form $A \otimes I$ whenever the numerical range inclusion relation $W(B) \subseteq W(A)$ holds.…

A matrix convex set is a set of the form $\mathcal{S} = \cup_{n\geq 1}\mathcal{S}_n$ (where each $\mathcal{S}_n$ is a set of $d$-tuples of $n \times n$ matrices) that is invariant under UCP maps from $M_n$ to $M_k$ and under formation of…

This article studies algebraic certificates of positivity for noncommutative (nc) operator-valued polynomials on matrix convex sets, such as the solution set $D_L$, called a free Hilbert spectrahedron, of the linear operator inequality…

In this paper, we obtain a new type of inequalities for frames, which are parametrized by a parameter \lambda\in R . By suitable choices of {\lambda}, one obtains the previous results as special cases. Our new proof also makes the…

An n-tuple (n \geq 2), T = (T_1, \ldots, T_n), of commuting bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space \mathcal{H} is doubly commuting if T_i T_j^* = T_j^* T_i for all $1 \leq i < j \leq n$. If in addition, each T_i \in C_{\cdot 0}, then…

The variance of a bounded linear operator $a$ on a Hilbert space $H$ at a unit vector $h$ is defined by $D_h(a)=\|ah\|^2-|<ah,h>|^2$. We show that two operators $a$ and $b$ have the same variance at all vectors $h\in H$ if and only if there…

Motivated by a general dilation theory for operator-valued measures, framings and bounded linear maps on operator algebras, we consider the dilation theory of the above objects with special structures. We show that every operator-valued…

We will give an outline of the main results in our recent AMS Memoir, and include some new results, exposition and open problems. In that memoir we developed a general dilation theory for operator valued measures acting on Banach spaces…

A bounded linear Hilbert space operator $S$ is said to be a $2$-isometry if the operator $S$ and its adjoint $S^*$ satisfy the relation $S^{*2}S^{2} - 2 S^{*}S + I = 0$. In this paper, we study Hilbert space operators having liftings or…

A spectral theory of linear operators on rigged Hilbert spaces (Gelfand triplets) is developed under the assumptions that a linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is a perturbation of a selfadjoint operator, and the spectral…

Using works of T.~Ando and L.~Gurvits, the well-known theorem of P.R.~Halmos concerning the existence of unitary dilations for contractive linear operators acting on Hilbert spaces recast as a result for $d$-tuples of contractive Hilbert…

Dilation theory is a paradigm for studying operators by way of exhibiting an operator as a compression of another operator which is in some sense well behaved. For example, every contraction can be dilated to (i.e., is a compression of) a…

For a tuple $T$ of Hilbert space operators, the 'commuting dilation constant' is the smallest number $c$ such that the operators of $T$ are a simultaneous compression of commuting normal operators of norm at most $c$. We present numerical…

We present an inequality for tensor product of positive operators on Hilbert spaces by considering the tensor product of operators as words on certain alphabets (i.e., a set of letters). As applications of the operator inequality and by a…
