Let $E$ be a subset of the affine plane over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We bound the size of the subgroup of $SL_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ that preserves $E$. As a consequence, we show that if $E$ has size $\ll q^\alpha$ and is preserved by $\gg…

Let H be a complex Hilbert space, B(H) and S(H) be the spaces of all bounded operators and all self-adjoint operators on H, respectively. We give the concrete forms of the maps on B(H) and also S(H) which preserve the spectrum of certain…

In this paper we describe the form of those continuous multiplicative maps on B(H) (H being a separable complex Hilbert space of dimension not less than 3) which preserve the rank, or the corank. Furthermore, we characterize those…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a $C^*$-algebra of bounded uniformly continuous functions on $X=\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $\mathcal{A}$ is stable under translations and contains the continuous functions that have a limit at infinity. Denote…

It is shown that the joint spectral radius $\rho(M)$ of a precompact family $M$ of operators on a Banach space $X$ is equal to the maximum of two numbers: the joint spectral radius $\rho_{e}(M)$ of the image of $M$ in the Calkin algebra and…

We introduce the notion of \emph{joint spectrum} of a compact set of matrices $S \subset GL_d(\mathbb{C})$, which is a multi-dimensional generalization of the joint spectral radius. We begin with a thorough study of its properties (under…

For a sequence $\mathbf w = \{w_j\}_{j = 2}^\infty$ of positive real numbers, consider the positive semi-definite kernel $\kappa_{\mathbf w}(s, u) = \sum_{j = 2}^\infty w_j j^{-s - \overline{u}}$ defined on some right-half plane $\mathbb…

We investigate the orthogonality preserving property for pairs of mappings on inner product $C^*$-modules extending existing results for a single orthogonality-preserving mapping. Guided by the point of view that the $C^*$-valued inner…

An $E_0$-semigroup of $B(H)$ is a one parameter strongly continuous semigroup of $*$-endomorphisms of $B(H)$ that preserve the identity. Every $E_0$-semigroup that possesses a strongly continuous intertwining semigroup of isometries is…

For $n$-by-$n$ and $m$-by-$m$ complex matrices $A$ and $B$, it is known that the inequality $w(A\otimes B)\le\|A\|w(B)$ holds, where $w(\cdot)$ and $\|\cdot\|$ denote, respectively, the numerical radius and the operator norm of a matrix. In…

This article focuses on several significant bounds of $q$-numerical radius $w_q(A)$ for sectorial matrix $A$ which refine and generalize previously established bounds. One of the significant bounds we have derived is as follows:…

The complex exponentials with integer frequencies form a basis for the space of square integrable functions on the unit interval. We analyze whether the basis property is maintained if the support of the complex exponentials is restricted…

Given an essential ideal $J\subset A$ of a C*-algebra $A$, and a Hilbert C*-module $M$ over $A$, we place $M$ between two other Hilbert C*-modules over $A$, $M_J\subset M\subset M^J$, in such a way that each submodule here is thick, i.e.…

Using the notion of quantum integers associated with a complex number $q\neq 0$, we define the quantum Hilbert matrix and various extensions. They are Hankel matrices corresponding to certain little $q$-Jacobi polynomials when $|q|<1$, and…
