We show that a densely defined closable operator $A$ such that the resolvent set of $A^2$ is not empty is necessarily closed. This result is then extended to the case of a polynomial $p(A)$. We also generalize a recent result by…

Using three different notions of generalized principal eigenvalue of linear second order elliptic operators in unbounded domains, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the validity of the maximum principle, as well as for the…

An adjoint pair is a pair of densely defined linear operators $A, B$ on a Hilbert space such that $\langle Ax,y\rangle=\langle x,By\rangle$ for $x\in \cD(A), y \in \cD(B).$ We consider adjoint pairs for which $0$ is a regular point for both…

We present maximality results in the setting of non necessarily bounded operators. In particular, we discuss and establish results showing when the "inclusion" between operators becomes a full equality.

In this article, we prove and disprove several generalizations of unbounded versions of the Fuglede-Putnam theorem. As applications, we give conditions guaranteeing the commutativity of a bounded self-adjoint operator with an unbounded…

In this paper, we establish results about operators similar to their adjoints. This is carried out in the setting of bounded and also unbounded operators on a Hilbert space. Among the results, we prove that an unbounded closed operator…

In this paper, necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the factorization of a closed, in general, unbounded operator $T=AB$ into a product of two nonnegative selfadjoint operators $A$ and $B.$ Already the special case, where…

Let $H_1$ and $H_2$ be selfadjoint operators or relations (multivalued operators) acting on a separable Hilbert space and assume that the inequality $H_1 \leq H_2$ holds. Then the validity of the inequalities $-H_1^{-1} \leq -H_2^{-1}$ and…

In this paper, we are concerned with conditions under which $[p(T)]^*=\bar{p}(T^*)$, where $p(z)$ is a one-variable complex polynomial, and $T$ is an unbounded, densely defined, and linear operator. Then, we deal with the validity of the…

A simple proof is provided to show that any bounded normal operator on a real Hilbert space is orthogonally equivalent to its transpose(adjoint). A structure theorem for invertible skew-symmetric operators, which is analogous to the finite…

We consider the question of, given operators $A$, $Z$ and a sequence of invertible operators $U_n\to Z$, whether the sequence $U_nAU_n^{-1}$ is bounded in norm, as well as generalizations of this where $U_nAU_n^{-1}$ is modified by some…

This paper is mainly concerned with proving $\sigma(AB)=\sigma(BA)$ for two linear and non necessarily bounded operators $A$ and $B$. The main tool is left and right invertibility of bounded and unbounded operators.

Devinatz, Nussbaum and von Neumann established some important results on the strong commutativity of self-adjoint and normal unbounded operators. In this paper, we prove results in the same spirit.

We consider the Neumann problem in $C^2$ bounded domains for fully nonlinear second order operators which are elliptic, homogenous with lower order terms. Inspired by \cite{bnv}, we define the concept of principal eigenvalue and we…

We are interested in an open question raised by Fong-Tsui (dating back to the beginning of the eighties of last century) as to whether a bounded operator whose absolute value is less than the absolute value of its real part is self-adjoint.…

An operator $T $ from a vector lattice $E$ into a normed lattice $F$ is called unbounded $\sigma$-order-to-norm continuous whenever $x_{n}\xrightarrow{uo}0$ implies $\| Tx_{n}\|\rightarrow 0$, for each sequence $(x_{n})_n\subseteq E$. For a…

In this paper, we give conditions forcing nilpotent operators (everywhere bounded or closed) to be null. More precisely, it is mainly shown any closed or everywhere defined bounded nilpotent operator with a positive (self-adjoint) real part…

In this paper we {\em discuss} diverse aspects of mutual relationship between adjoints and formal adjoints of unbounded operators bearing a matrix structure. We emphasize on the behaviour of row and column operators as they turn out to be…

In the last decades many authors have become interested in the study of multilinear and polynomial generalizations of families of operator ideals (such as, for instance, the ideal of absolutely summing operators). However, these…

Let $A,$ $T$ and $B$ be bounded linear operators on a Banach space. This paper is concerned mainly with finding some necessary and sufficient conditions for convergence in operator norm of the sequences $\left\{ A^{n}TB^{n}\right\} $ and…
