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…
In this article, we prove the following spectral theorem for right linear normal operators (need not to be bounded) in quaternionic Hilbert spaces: Let $T$ be an unbounded right quaternionic linear normal operator in a quaternionic Hilbert…
We extend some results of group representation theory and von Neumann algebras to the quaternionic Hilbert space case, proving the double commutant theorem (whose quaternionic proof requires a different procedure) and extend to the…
The quaternionic spectral theorem has already been considered in the literature, see e.g. [22], [31], [32], however, except for the finite dimensional case in which the notion of spectrum is associated to an eigenvalue problem, see [21], it…

The foundation of spectral theory on the $S$-spectrum can be traced back to the quaternionic framework of quantum mechanics. The concept of $S$-spectrum for quaternionic operators emerged as the natural spectrum in slice hyperholomorphic…
In a series of papers published in this Journal (J. Math. Phys.), a discussion was started on the significance of a new definition of projective representations in quaternionic Hilbert spaces. The present paper gives what we believe is a…

This paper addresses the problem of computing the eigenvalues lying in the gaps of the essential spectrum of a periodic Schrodinger operator perturbed by a fast decreasing potential. We use a recently developed technique, the so called…
We study essentially bounded quantum random variables and show that the Gelfand spectrum of such a quantum random variable coincides with the hypoconvex hull of its essential range. Moreover, a notion of operator-valued variance is…

Due to the existence of incompatible observables, the propositional calculus of a quantum system does not form a Boolean algebra but an orthomodular lattice. Such lattice can be realised as a lattice of subspaces on a real, complex or…
