We define essentially positive operators on Hilbert space as a class of self-adjoint operators whose essential spectra is contained in the nonnegative real numbers and describe their basic properties. Using Toeplitz operators and the…
Positive maps which are not completely positive are used in quantum information theory as witnesses for convex sets of states, in particular as entanglement witnesses and more generally as witnesses for states having Schmidt number not…
The extension problem asks whether positive semi-definite functions on a symmetric unital subset of a discrete group can be extended to positive semi-definite functions on the whole group. It has been known at least since the work of Rudin…
We establish new and different kinds of proofs of properties that arise due to the orthogonal decomposition of the Hilbert space, including projections, over the unit interval of one dimension. We also see angles between functions,…
It is known that complementary oblique projections $\hat{P}_0 + \hat{P}_1 = I$ on a Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$ have the same standard operator norm $\|\hat{P}_0\| = \|\hat{P}_1\|$ and the same singular values, but for the multiplicity of…
For a finite reflection group on $\b R^N,$ the associated Dunkl operators are parametrized first-order differential-difference operators which generalize the usual partial derivatives. They generate a commutative algebra which is - under…
We prove a Br\'ezis--Oswald type existence theorem for positive solutions of semilinear equations in an abstract setting in which the underlying linear operator has a compact positivity-improving resolvent. The assumptions imposed on the…
The paper is devoted to the study of configuration space analysis by using the projective spectral theorem. For a manifold $X$, let $\Gamma_X$, resp.\ $\Gamma_{X,0}$ denote the space of all, resp. finite configurations in $X$. The so-called…
A framework for coherent pattern extraction and prediction of observables of measure-preserving, ergodic dynamical systems with both atomic and continuous spectral components is developed. It is based on an approximation of the generator of…
Halmos' two projections theorem for Hilbert space operators is one of the fundamental results in operator theory. In this paper, we introduce the term of two harmonious projections in the context of adjointable operators on Hilbert…
We study the problem of existence and uniqueness of solutions of backward stochastic differential equations with two reflecting irregular barriers, $L^p$ data and generators satisfying weak integrability conditions. We deal with equations…
In this work we consider open $SL(2, \mathbb{R})$ spin chain, mainly the simplest case of one particle. Eigenfunctions of the model can be constructed using the so-called reflection operator. We obtain several representations of this…
We consider a renormalization transformation $R$ for skew-product maps of the type that arise in a spectral analysis of the Hofstadter Hamiltonian. Periodic orbits of $R$ determine universal constants analogous to the critical exponents in…
Talagrand's positivity principle states that one can slightly perturb a Hamiltonian in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model in such a way that the overlap of two configurations under the perturbed Gibbs' measure will become typically…
For a Dedekind domain $\mathcal{O}$ and a rank two co-torsion module $M\subseteq \mathcal{O}^2$ with invariant factor ideals $\mathcal{L}\supseteq \mathcal{K}$ in $\mathcal{O}$, that is, $\frac{\mathcal{O}^2}{M}\cong…
We express the defining relations of the $q$-deformed Minkowski space algebra as well as that of the corresponding derivatives and differentials in the form of reflection equations. This formulation encompasses the covariance properties…
We give a Hahn-Jordan decomposition in Riesz spaces which generalizes that of [{{\sc B. A. Watson}, {An And\^o-Douglas type theorem in Riesz spaces with a conditional expectation,} {\em Positivity,} {\bf 13} (2009), 543 - 558}] and a…
In this work, we present several aspects of the interplay between classical and quantum theories. After reviewing the equivalence between positivity and complete positivity in the commutative setting, we introduce and analyze intermediate…
We continue our study of operator algebras with and contractive approximate identities (cais). In earlier papers we have introduced and studied a new notion of positivity in operator algebras, with an eye to extending certain C*-algebraic…
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…
