We generalize the $C$-numerical range $W_C(T)$ from trace-class to Schatten-class operators, i.e. to $C\in\mathcal B^p(\mathcal H)$ and $T\in\mathcal B^q(\mathcal H)$ with $1/p + 1/q = 1$, and show that its closure is always star-shaped…

We introduce and investigate the orbit-closed $C$-numerical range, a natural modification of the $C$-numerical range of an operator introduced for $C$ trace-class by Dirr and vom Ende. Our orbit-closed $C$-numerical range is a conservative…

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…

Suppose that c is an operator on a Hilbert Space H such that the von Neumann algebra N generated by c is finite. Suppose that tau is a faithful normal tracial state on N. Let B denote the spectal scale of c with respect to tau. We show that…

In this note we characterize the essential numerical range of a block diagonal o\-pe\-ra\-tor $T=\bigoplus_i T_i$ in terms of the numerical ranges $\{W(T_i)\}_i$ of its components. Specifically, the essential numerical range of $T$ is the…

The numerical range in the quaternionic setting is, in general, a non convex subset of the quaternions. The essential numerical range is a refinement of the numerical range that only keeps the elements that have, in a certain sense,…

Motivated by applications in quantum information and quantum control, a new type of $C$"-numerical range, the relative $C$"-numerical range denoted $W_K(C,A)$, is introduced. It arises upon replacing the unitary group U(N) in the definition…

We prove that the closure of the numerical range of a $(n+1)$-periodic and $(2m+1)$-banded Toeplitz operator can be expressed as the closure of the convex hull of the uncountable union of numerical ranges of certain symbol matrices. In…

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.

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…
