In this paper we consider the following problem: Let $X_k$, be a Banach space with a normalized basis $(e_{(k,j)})_j$, whose biorthogonals are denoted by $(e_{(k,j)}^*)_j$, for $k\in\mathbb{N}$, let $Z=\ell^\infty(X_k:k\in\mathbb{N})$ be…

The main aim of this paper is to generalize the classical concept of positive operator, and to develop a general extension theory, which overcomes not only the lack of a Hilbert space structure, but also the lack of a normable topology. The…

In the present note we show that if A is a locally C*-algebra, and I and J are closed two-sided ideals in A, then the positive part of (I+J) is equal to the sum of positive parts of I and J.

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…

A Hilbert space operator $S\in\B$ is left $m$-invertible by $T\in\B$ if $$\sum_{j=0}^m{(-1)^{m-j}\left(\begin{array}{clcr}m\\j\end{array}\right)T^jS^j}=0,$$ $S$ is $m$-isometric if…

In this paper, we study {\it operator spaces\/} in the sense of the theory developed recently by Blecher-Paulsen [BP] and Effros-Ruan [ER1]. By an operator space, we mean a closed subspace $E\subset B(H)$, with $H$ Hilbert. We will be…

In this work a possibility of a decomposition of a bounded operator which acts in a Hilbert space $H$ as a product of a J-unitary and a J-self-adjoint operators is studied, $J$ is a conjugation (an antilinear involution). Decompositions of…

Let $X_1, \ldots, X_n,Y$ be classes of Banach spaces-valued sequences. An $n$-linear operator $A$ between Banach spaces belongs to the ideal of $(X_1, \ldots, X_n;Y)$-summing multilinear operators if $(A(x_j^1, \ldots, x_j^n))_{j=1}^\infty$…

We use a model operator approach and the spectral theorem for self-adjoint operators in a Hilbert space to derive the basic results of abstract left-definite theory in a straightforward manner. The theory is amply illustrated with a variety…

We study homological structure of the filtrations of the spaces of self-adjoint operators by the multiplicity of the ground state. We consider only operators acting in a finite dimensional complex or real Hilbert space but infinite…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a Hilbert space, and let $K(\mathcal{H})$ be the $C^*$-algebra of compact operators on $\mathcal{H}$. In this paper, we present some characterizations of the norm-parallelism for elements of a Hilbert…

We prove a general factorization theorem for Lipschitz summing operators in the context of metric spaces which recovers several linear and nonlinear factorization theorems that have been proved recently in different environments. New…

This article establishes a bilinear embedding for second-order divergence-form operators with complex coefficients, characterized by the simultaneous presence of first-order terms and negative potentials. This work provides a further…

In this paper, necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the factorization of a closed, in general, unbounded operator $T=AB$ into a product of two nonnegative selfadjoint operators $A$ and $B.$ Already the special case, where…

Halmos' two projections theorem for Hilbert space operators is one of the fundamental results in operator theory. In this paper, we introduce the term of two harmonious projections in the context of adjointable operators on Hilbert…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and let $A$ be a positive operator on $\mathcal{H}$. We obtain new bounds for the $A$-numerical radius of operators in semi-Hilbertian space $\mathcal{B}_A(\mathcal{H})$ that generalize and…

We present a form convergence theorem for sequences of sectorial forms and their associated semigroups in a complex Hilbert space. Roughly speaking, the approximating forms $a_n$ are all `bounded below' by the limiting form $a$, but in…

In this article we study different aspects of Hermitian operators applying the concept of positive decompositions. On the one hand, we characterize the positivity of an Hermitian operator by means of a norm condition where the factors of…
