In this paper we introduce an enclosure of the numerical range of a class of rational operator functions. In contrast to the numerical range the presented enclosure can be computed exactly in the infinite dimensional case as well as in the…

We introduce the numerical spectrum $\sigma_n(A)\subset \mathbb{C}$ of an (unbounded) linear operator $A$ on a Banach space $X$ and study its properties. Our definition is closely related to the numerical range $W(A)$ of $A$ and always…

We study the relation between the intrinsic and the spatial numerical ranges with the recently introduced "approximated" spatial numerical range. As main result, we show that the intrinsic numerical range always coincides with the convex…

We give new necessary and sufficient conditions for the numerical range $W(T)$ of an operator $T \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ to be a subset of the closed elliptical set $K_\delta \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ given by \[ K_\delta {\stackrel{\rm…

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 $T$.…

For finite-dimensional operator systems $\mathcal{S}_{\mathsf T}$, ${\mathsf T} \in B({\mathcal H})^d$, we show that the local lifting property and $1$-exactness of $\mathcal{S}_{\mathsf T}$ may be characterized by measurements of the…

Given a Hilbert space operator $T$, the level sets of function $\Psi_T(z)=\|(T-z)^{-1}\|^{-1}$ determine the so-called pseudospectra of $T$. We set $\Psi_T$ to be zero on the spectrum of $T$. After giving some elementary properties of…
