Given a purely contractive matrix-valued analytic function $\Theta$ on the unit disc $\bm{D}$, we study the $\mc{U} (n)$-parameter family of unitary perturbations of the operator $Z_\Theta$ of multiplication by $z$ in the Hilbert space…

We answer a question of Peller by showing that for any c>1 there exists a power-bounded operator T on a Hilbert space with the property that any operator S similar to T satisfies $\sup_n\|S^n\|>c.$

Let H be a separable Hilbert space, and D(B(H))^ah the anti-Hermitian bounded diagonals in some fixed orthonormal basis and K(H) the compact operators. We study the group of unitary operators U_kd = {u in U(H): such that u-e^D in K(H) for D…

In his monograph on Infinite Abelian Groups, I. Kaplansky raised three ``test problems" concerning their structure and multiplicity. As noted by Azoff, these problems make sense for any category admitting a direct sum operation. Here, we…

Let F(u_\ve)+\ve(u_\ve-w)=0 \eqno{(1)} where $F$ is a nonlinear operator in a Hilbert space $H$, $w\in H$ is an element, and $\ve>0$ is a parameter. Assume that $F(y)=0$, and $F'(y)$ is not a boundedly invertible operator. Sufficient…

We establish higher order trace formulas for pairs of contractions along a multiplicative path generated by a self-adjoint operator in a Schatten-von Neumann ideal, removing earlier stringent restrictions on the kernel and defect operator…

First we prove a Littlewood-Paley diagonalization result for bi-Lipschitz perturbations of the identity map on the real line. This result entails a number of corollaries for the Hilbert transform along lines and monomial curves in the…

For a pair $(A,B)$ of not necessarily bounded and not necessarily commuting self-adjoint operators and for a function $f$ on the Euclidean space ${\Bbb R}^2$ that belongs to the inhomogeneous Besov class $B_{\infty,1}^1({\Bbb R}^2)$, we…

Let $C_1(H)$ denote the space of all trace class operators on an arbitrary complex Hilbert space $H$. We prove that $C_1(H)$ satisfies the $\lambda$-property, and we determine the form of the $\lambda$-function of Aron and Lohman on the…

Covering ill-posed problems with compact and non-compact operators regarding the degree of ill-posedness is a never ending story written by many authors in the inverse problems literature. This paper tries to add a new narrative and some…

A bounded operator $T$ on a separable, complex Hilbert space is said to be odd symmetric if $I^*T^tI=T$ where $I$ is a real unitary satisfying $I^2=-1$ and $T^t$ denotes the transpose of $T$. It is proved that such an operator can always be…

By the use of the celebrated Kato's inequality we obtain in this paper some new inequalities for trace class operators on a complex Hilbert space H. Natural applications for functions defined by power series of normal operators are given as…

This is a continuation of our paper \cite{AP2}. We prove that for functions $f$ in the H\"older class $\L_\a(\R)$ and $1<p<\be$, the operator $f(A)-f(B)$ belongs to $\bS_{p/\a}$, whenever $A$ and $B$ are self-adjoint operators with…

If $U$ is a unitary operator on a separable complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, an application of the spectral theorem says there is a conjugation $C$ on $\mathcal{H}$ (an antilinear, involutive, isometry on $\mathcal{H}$) for which $ C U…

For any nonnegative self-adjoint operators A and B in a separable Hilbert space, we show that the Trotter-type formula $[(e^{i2tA/n}+e^{i2tB/n})/2]^n$ converges strongly in the closure of the intersection of the domains of A^{1/2} and…

Consider a function $f : \mathbb{T} \to \mathbb{C}$, $n$-times differentiable on $\mathbb{T}$ and such that its $n$th derivative $f^{(n)}$ is bounded but not necessarily continuous. Let $U : \mathbb{R} \to \mathcal{U}(\mathcal{H})$ be a…

We investigate trace formulas for one-dimensional Schroedinger operators which are trace class perturbations of quasi-periodic finite-gap operators using Krein's spectral shift theory. In particular, we establish the conserved quantities…

We extend the results of our previous paper "C*-algebras and numerical linear algebra" to cover the case of "unilateral" sections. This situation bears a close resemblance to the case of Toeplitz operators on Hardy spaces, in spite of the…

For cofinite Kleinian groups, with finite-dimensional unitary representations, we derive the Selberg trace formula. As an application we define the corresponding Selberg zeta-function and compute its divisor, thus generalizing results of…

In this article we prove that for $p>2$, there exist pairs of self-adjoint operators $(A_1,B_1)$ and $(A_2,B_2)$ and a function $f$ on the real line in the homogeneous Besov class $B_{\infty,1}^1({\Bbb R}^2)$ such that the differences…
