A recent development in random matrix theory, the intrinsic freeness principle, establishes that the spectrum of very general random matrices behaves as that of an associated free operator. This reduces the study of such random matrices to…

A certain class of matrix-valued Borel matrix functions is introduced and it is shown that all functions of that class naturally operate on any operator T in a finite type I von Neumann algebra M in a way such that uniformly bounded…

In this article, we are going to search for $n\times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$ such that their generalized numerical range $$W_A(B)=\{tr(AU^*BU) \ :\ U^*U=UU^*=I\}$$ is convex. More specifically, we consider $A=\hat{A}\oplus I_k$ and…

We define a new numerical range of an n\timesn complex matrix in terms of correlation matrices and develop some of its properties. We also define a related numerical range that arises from Alain Connes' famous embedding problem.

We refine a recent result of Drury concerning the optimal ratio between the norm and numerical radius of a bounded linear operator $T$ with numerical range lying in a sector of a circular disk. In particular, characterization is given to…

We show how the numerical range of a matrix can be used to bound the optimal value of certain optimization problems over real tensor product vectors. Our bound is stronger than the trivial bounds based on eigenvalues, and can be computed…

Theory of numerical range and numerical radius for tensors is not studied much in the literature. In 2016, Ke {\it et al.} [Linear Algebra Appl., 508 (2016) 100-132] introduced first the notion of numerical range of a tensor via the…

We provide a complete description of the order isomorphisms between the self-adjoint parts of $C^*$-algebras. Furthermore, we characterize such isomorphisms between general operator intervals in $AW^*$-algebras. For the description, we use…

A group of matrices $G$ with entries in a number field $K$ is defined to be numerical if $G$ has a finite index subgroup of matrices whose entries are algebraic integers. It is shown that an irreducible or completely reducible subgroup of…

Operator matrices have played a significant role in studying Hilbert space operators. In this paper, we discuss further properties of operator matrices and present new estimates for the operator norms and numerical radii of such operators.…

We consider the vector space of $n \times n$ matrices over $\mathbb C$, Fermi operators and operators constructed from these matrices and Fermi operators. The properties of these operators are studied with respect to the underlying…

Given a Hilbert module $H$ over a $C^*$-algebra, let $\mathcal{L}(H)$ be the set of all adjointable operators on $H$. For each $T\in\mathcal{L}(H)$, its numerical radius is defined by $w(T)=\sup\big\{\|\langle Tx, x \rangle\|: x\in H,…

The generalized state space of a commutative C*-algebra, denoted S_H(C(X)), is the set of positive unital maps from C(X) to the algebra B(H) of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H. C*-convexity is one of several non-commutative…
