Theorem 1. Given a number c >= 1, there exists a J-unitary operator \hat{V}, such that: (a) r(\hat{V})= r(\hat{V}^{-1})= c ; (b) S(c^{-1}\hat{V})=S(c^{-1}\hat{V}^{-1}) =S(c^{-1}\hat{V}^{*-1}) = S(c^{-1}\hat{V}^*)={0} (c) there exist maximal…

We prove that for every bounded linear operator $T:X\to X$, where $X$ is a non-reflexive quotient of a von Neumann algebra, the point spectrum of $T^*$ is non-empty (i.e. for some $\lambda\in\mathbb C$ the operator $\lambda I-T$ fails to…

We study boundaries for unital operator algebras. These are sets of irreducible $*$-representations that completely capture the spatial norm attainment for a given subalgebra. Classically, the Choquet boundary is the minimal boundary of a…

Utilizing the linking algebra of a Hilbert $C^*$-module $\big(\mathscr{V}, {\|\!\cdot\!\|}\big)$, we introduce $\Omega(x)$ as a definition of numerical radius for an element $x\in\mathscr{V}$ and then show that $\Omega(\cdot)$ is a norm on…

Few years ago G\u{a}vru\c{t}a gave the notions of $K$-frame and atomic system for a linear bounded operator $K$ in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ in order to decompose $\mathcal{R}(K)$, the range of $K$, with a frame-like expansion. These…

Persson's formula expresses the infimum of the essential spectrum of a suitable self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operator in $R^n$ in terms of the lower spectral points of a family of restrictions of the operator to complements of relatively…

In this paper we study a class of Jacobi operators, such that each operator is generated by the unit Borel measure with a support consisting of a finite number of intervals on the real line R and a finite number of points in C, located…

We introduce the numerical spectrum $\sigma_n(A)\subset \mathbb{C}$ of an (unbounded) linear operator $A$ on a Banach space $X$ and study its properties. Our definition is closely related to the numerical range $W(A)$ of $A$ and always…

We found that if $u$ and $v$ are any two unitaries in a unital $C^*$-algebra with $\|uv-vu\|<2$ such that $uvu^*v^*$ commutes with $u$ and $v,$ then the \SCA\, $A_{u,v}$ generated by $u$ and $v$ is isomorphic to a quotient of the rotation…

Let $R$ be the hyperfinite ${\rm II}_1$ factor and let $u,v$ be two generators of $R$ such that $u^*u=v^*v=1$ and $vu=e^{2\pi i\theta} uv$ for an irrational number $\theta$. In this paper we study the class of operators $uf(v)$, where $f$…

We develop an elementary formula for certain non-trivial elements of upper cluster algebras. These elements have positive coefficients. We show that when the cluster algebra is acyclic these elements form a basis. Using this formula, we…

We obtain several sharp lower and upper bounds for the Euclidean operator radius of a pair of bounded linear operators defined on a complex Hilbert space. As applications of these bounds we deduce a chain of new bounds for the classical…

Let $1 \in A \subset B$ be an inclusion of unital C*-algebras of index-finite type and depth 2. Suppose that $A$ is infinite dimensional simple with $tsr(A) = 1$ and SP-property. Then $tsr(B) \leq 2$. As a corollary when $A$ is a simple…

The radical of a vertex operator algebra associated to a module is defined and computed.

We show that a unital ring is generated by its commutators as an ideal if and only if there exists a natural number $N$ such that every element is a sum of $N$ products of pairs of commutators. We show that one can take $N \leq 2$ for…

RO*-algebras are defined and studied. For RO*-algebra T, using properties of partial order, it is established that the set of bounded elements can be endowed with C*-norm. The structure of commutative subalgebras of T is considered and the…

The classical radial part formula for the invariant differential operators and the K-invariant functions on a Riemannian symmetric space G/K is generalized to some non-invariant cases by use of Cherednik operators and a graded Hecke algebra…

This paper is a continuation of a recent work on a new norm, christened the $ (\alpha, \beta)$-norm, on the space of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. We obtain some upper bounds for the said norm of $n\times n$ operator…

We introduce the notion of confined subalgebras in the context of the group von Neumann algebra. We also define Uniformly Recurrent States -- an operator-algebraic analog of Uniformly Recurrent Subgroups. Using this framework, we show that…

In this short article, we mainly prove that, for any spectral operator $A$ of type $m$ on a complex Hilbert space, if a bounded operator $B$ lies in the collection of bounded linear operators that are in the $k$-centralizer of every bounded…
