Let H be a complex Hilbert space of dimension no less than 2 and B(H) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on H. We give the form of surjective maps on B(H) preserving c-numerical range of operator products when the maps satisfy…
We prove that the $L_1$-norms associated with a positive element $a$ of a unital C*-algebra are equivalent to the norm of C*-algebra if and only if $a$ is invertible.
The Operator axioms have produced new real numbers with new operators. New operators naturally produce new equations and thus extend the traditional mathematical models which are selected to describe various scientific rules. So new…
A classification is given of certain separable nuclear C*-algebras not necessarily of real rank zero, namely the class of simple C*-algebras which are inductive limits of continuous-trace C*-algebras whose building blocks have their…
In this paper we present the set of intervals as a normed vector space. We define also a four-dimensional associative algebra whose product gives the product of intervals in any cases. This approach allows to give a notion of divisibility…
A new approach to normal operators in real Hilbert spaces is discussed, and a spectral representation is obtained, derived directly from the complex case. The results are then applied to quaternionic normal operators, regarded as a special…
Let T be a quasidiagonal operator on a separable Hilbert space. Then T is the norm limit of operators, each of which generate a finite dimensional C*-algebra, if and only if the C*-algebra generated by T is exact.
In earlier papers the second author and Charles Read have introduced and studied a new notion of positivity for operator algebras, with an eye to extending certain C*-algebraic results and theories to more general algebras. The present…
For any real $t$, the unitary divisor function $\sigma_t^*$ is the multiplicative arithmetic function defined by $\sigma_t^*(p^{\alpha})=1+p^{\alpha t}$ for all primes $p$ and positive integers $\alpha$. Let $\overline{\sigma_t^*(\mathbb…
We give an order-theoretic characterization of the essential image of the forgetful functor from the category of real/complex unital C*-algebras to the category of real/complex unital operator systems. It is based on the characterization of…
Given unital Banach algebras $A$ and $B$ and elements $a\in A$ and $b\in B$, the Drazin spectrun of $a\otimes b\in A\overline{\otimes} B$ will be fully characterized, where $A\overline{\otimes} B$ is a Banach algebra that is the completion…
In this short note we give a formula for the number of chains of subgroups of a finite elementary abelian $p$-group. This completes our previous work [5].
We generalise the Elliptical Range Theorem to characterise the numerical range of matrices belonging to a subspace of the space of \(3 \times 3\) matrices. Using Specht's Theorem, which characterizes when two matrices are unitarily…
Let $n$ and $k$ be two positive integers with $k\leq n$ and $C$ an $n \times n$ matrix with nonnegative entries. In this paper, the rank-$k$ numerical range in the max algebra setting is introduced and studied. The related notions of the…
Order unit property of a positive element in a $C^{*}$-algebra is defined. It is proved that precisely projections satisfy this order theoretic property. This way, unital hereditary $C^{*}$-subalgebras of a $C^{*}$-algebra are…
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 left ideal of any C*-algebra is an example of an operator algebra with a right contractive approximate identity (r.c.a.i.). Conversely, we show here and in a `pre-quel' to this paper [B], that operator algebras with r.c.a.i. should be…
We will investigate the intersection of the normal operators with the closure of the nilpotent and quasinilpotent operators in various C*-algebras. A complete characterization will be given for type I and type III von Neumann algebras with…
The parallel sum for adjoinable operators on Hilbert $C^*$-modules is introduced and studied. Some results known for matrices and bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces are generalized to the case of adjointable operators on Hilbert…
We compute the C*-algebra generated by a group of composition operators acting on certain reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces over the disk, where the symbols belong to a non-elementary Fuchsian group. We show that such a C*-algebra contains…
