Crouzeix and Palencia recently showed that the numerical range of a Hilbert-space operator is a $(1+\sqrt2)$-spectral set for the operator. One of the principal ingredients of their proof can be formulated as an abstract functional-analysis…

We study spectral constants for convex domains $\Omega$ containing the spectrum of an operator. We extend the Crouzeix--Palencia framework by obtaining bounds depending on a parameter $\gamma$ and relating these bounds to geometric…

We extend the proof in [M.~Crouzeix and C.~Palencia, {\em The numerical range is a $(1 + \sqrt{2})$-spectral set}, SIAM Jour.~Matrix Anal.~Appl., 38 (2017), pp.~649-655] to show that other regions in the complex plane are $K$-spectral sets.…

A result by Crouzeix and Palencia states that the spectral norm of a matrix function $f(A)$ is bounded by $K = 1+\sqrt{2}$ times the maximum of $f$ on $W(A)$, the numerical range of $A$. The purpose of this work is to point out that this…

It is shown that the numerical range of a linear operator operator in a Hilbert space is a (complete) $(1{+}\sqrt2)$-spectral set. The proof relies, among other things, in the behavior of the Cauchy transform of the conjugates of…

We provide numerical bounds on the Crouzeix ratiofor KLS matrices $A$ which have a line segment on the boundary of the numerical range. The Crouzeix ratio is the supremum over all polynomials $p$ of the spectral norm of $p(A)$ dividedby the…

We define the complete numerical radius norm for homomorphisms from any operator algebra into ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$, and show that this norm can be computed explicitly in terms of the completely bounded norm. This is used to show…

The quadratic numerical range $W^2(A)$ is a subset of the standard numerical range of a linear operator which still contains its spectrum. It arises naturally in operators which have a $2 \times 2$ block structure, and it consists of at…

A new concept of a deformed numerical range $W^\rho(T)$ is introduced. Here $T$ is a bounded linear operator or a matrix and $ \rho \in[1,+\infty)$ is a parameter. Each $W^\rho(T)$ is a closed convex set that contains the spectrum of $T$.…

The paper considers some new properties of the so-called $A$-maximal numerical range of operators, denoted by $W_{\max}^A(\cdot)$, where $A$ is a positive bounded linear operator acting on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Some…

It is known that, if $\Omega$ $\subset$ C is a convex set containing the numerical range of an operator A, then $\Omega$ is a C $\Omega$ -spectral set for A with C $\Omega$ $\le$ 1+ $\sqrt$ 2. We improve this estimate in unbounded cases.

Let $A$ be a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space and $\Re(A)$ ( $\Im(A)$ ) denote the real part (imaginary part) of A. Among other refinements of the lower bounds for the numerical radius of $A$, we prove that…

Suppose that c is a linear operator acting on an n-dimensional complex Hilbert Space H, and let tau denote the normalized trace on B(H). Set b_1 = (c+c*)/2 and b_2 = (c-c*)/2i, and write B for the the spectral scale of {b_1, b_2} with…

If $A,B$ are bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space, then % $w(A) \leq \frac{1}{2}\left( \|A\|+\sqrt{r\left(|A||A^*|\right)}\right)$ and $w(AB \pm BA)\leq 2\sqrt{2}\|B\|\sqrt{ w^2(A)-\frac{c^2(\Re (A))+c^2(\Im (A))}{2} },$…

Let $D$ be a bounded convex domain in $\mathbb{C}$ with a regular analytic boundary. Suppose that the numerical range $W(A)$ of a bounded linear operator $A$ is contained in $\overline{D}$. If $\overline{W(A)}$ intersects the boundary…

In an attempt to progress towards proving the conjecture the numerical range W (A) is a 2--spectral set for the matrix A, we propose a study of various constants. We review some partial results, many problems are still open. We describe our…

The Crouzeix ratio $\psi(A)$ of an $N\times N$ complex matrix $A$ is the supremum of $\|p(A)\|$ taken over all polynomials $p$ such that $|p|\le 1$ on the numerical range of $A$. It is known that $\psi(A)\le 1+\sqrt{2}$, and it is…
