We study approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality of bounded linear operators defined between normed linear spaces $\mathbb{X}$ and $\mathbb{Y}.$ As an application of the results obtained, we characterize smoothness of a bounded linear…
We introduce the notion of strongly orthogonal set relative to an element in the sense of Birkhoff-James in a normed linear space to find a necessary and sufficient condition for an element $ x $ of the unit sphere $ S_{X}$ to be an exposed…
In a normed linear space X an element x is said to be orthogonal to another element y in the sense of Birkhoff-James, written as $ x \perp_{B}y, $ iff $ \| x \| \leq \| x + \lambda y \| $ for all scalars $ \lambda.$ We prove that a normed…
In this paper we characterize the Birkhoff--James orthogonality with respect to the numerical radius norm $v(\cdot)$ in $C^*$-algebras. More precisely, for two elements $a, b$ in a $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$, we show that $a\perp_{B}^{v}…
We find an expression for Gateaux derivative of the $C^*$-algebra norm. This gives us alternative proofs or generalizations of various known results on the closely related notions of subdifferential sets, smooth points and Birkhoff-James…
It is shown that, given any $k$-dimensional lattice $\Lambda$, there is a lattice sequence $\Lambda_w$, $w\in \mathbb Z$, with sub-orthogonal lattice $\Lambda_o \subset \Lambda$, converging to $\Lambda$ (unless equivalence), also we discuss…
In this paper, we extend the investigations regarding Birkhoff-James orthogonality of linear operators to bounded continuous functions on metric spaces. We introduce Birkhoff-James extensions of continuous functions and study them in…
In this work it is shown that certain interesting types of quasi-orthogonal system of subalgebras (whose existence cannot be ruled out by the trivial necessary conditions) cannot exist. In particular, it is proved that there is no…
Every sufficiently big matrix with small spectral norm has a nearby low-rank matrix if the distance is measured in the maximum norm (Udell & Townsend, SIAM J Math Data Sci, 2019). We use the Hanson--Wright inequality to improve the estimate…
We study the geometry of $\mathcal{L}(X)_w,$ the space of all bounded linear operators on a Banach space $X,$ endowed with the numerical radius norm, whenever the numerical radius defines a norm. We obtain the form of the extreme points of…
The unitary Birkhoff theorem states that any unitary matrix with all row sums and all column sums equal unity can be decomposed as a weighted sum of permutation matrices, such that both the sum of the weights and the sum of the squared…
A graph is said to be orthogonalisable if the set of real symmetric matrices whose off-diagonal pattern is prescribed by its edges contains an orthogonal matrix. We determine some necessary and some sufficient conditions on the sizes of the…
We study two notions of approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality in a normed space, from a geometric point of view, and characterize them in terms of normal cones. We further explore the interconnection between normal cones and approximate…
Let A and B be normal matrices with coefficients that are continuous complex-valued functions on a topological space X that has the homotopy type of a CW complex, and suppose these matrices have the same distinct eigenvalues at each point…
The main goal of the article is to prove that if $\mathcal A_1$ and $\mathcal A_2$ are Birkhoff-James isomorphic $C^*$-algebras over the fields $\mathbb F_1$ and $\mathbb F_2$, respectively and if $\mathcal A_1$ finite-dimensional, abelian…
We determine the distance (up to a multiplicative constant) in the Zygmund class $\Lambda_{\ast}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ to the subspace $\mathrm{J}(\mathbf{bmo})(\mathbb{R}^n).$ The latter space is the image under the Bessel potential $J :=…
We study Birkhoff-James orthogonality and its local symmetry in some sequence spaces namely $\ell_p,$ for $1\leq p\leq\infty$, $p\neq2$, $c$, $c_0$ and $c_{00}$. Using the characterization of the local symmetry of Birkhoff-James…
It is shown that Birkhoff-James orthogonality knows everything about the smooth norms in reflexive Banach spaces and can also compute the dimensions of the underlying normed spaces.
In matrix analysis, the \textit{Wielandt-Mirsky conjecture} states that $$ dist(\sigma(A), \sigma(B)) \leq \|A-B\|, $$ for any normal matrices $ A, B \in \mathbb C^{n\times n}$ and any operator norm $\|\cdot \|$ on $C^{n\times n}$. Here…
In this paper we consider a distance-regular graph $\Gamma$. Fix a vertex $x$ of $\Gamma$ and consider the corresponding subconstituent algebra $T$. The algebra $T$ is the $\mathbb{C}$-algebra generated by the Bose-Mesner algebra $M$ of…
