This paper is a follow-up contribution to our work [20] where we discussed some invariant subspace results for contractions on Hilbert spaces. Here we extend the results of [20] to the context of n-tuples of bounded linear operators on…

Normality of bounded and unbounded adjointable operators are discussed. Suppose $T$ is an adjointable operator between Hilbert C*-modules which has polar decomposition, then $T$ is normal if and only if there exists a unitary operator $…

In this paper we consider a problem of the similarity of complex symmetric operators to perturbations of restrictions of normal operators. For a subclass of cyclic complex symmetric operators in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space we prove…

Hilbert(ian) A-modules over finite von Neumann algebras A with a faithful normal trace state (from global analysis) and Hilbert W*-modules over A (from operator algebra theory) are compared, and a categorical equivalence is established. The…

We define the (convex) joint numerical range for an infinite family of compact operators in a Hilbert space H. We use this set to determine whether a self-adjoint compact operator A with {||A||, -||A||} in its spectrum is minimal respect to…

The class of absolutely norming operators on complex Hilbert spaces of arbitrary dimensions was introduced in [6] and a spectral characterization theorem for these operators was established in [11]. In this paper we extend the concept of…

We show that all Hankel operators $H$ realized as integral operators with kernels $h(t+s)$ in $L^2 ({\Bbb R}_{+}) $ can be quasi-diagonalized as $H= {\sf L}^* \Sigma {\sf L} $. Here ${\sf L}$ is the Laplace transform, $\Sigma$ is the…

A term called the quasi-projection pair $(P,Q)$ was introduced recently by the authors, where $P$ is a projection and $Q$ is an idempotent on a Hilbert $C^*$-module $H$ satisfying $Q^*=(2P-I)Q(2P-I)$, in which $Q^*$ is the adjoint operator…

It is known that complementary oblique projections $\hat{P}_0 + \hat{P}_1 = I$ on a Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$ have the same standard operator norm $\|\hat{P}_0\| = \|\hat{P}_1\|$ and the same singular values, but for the multiplicity of…

We study closedness of the range, adjointability and generalized invertibility of modular operators between Hilbert modules over locally C*-algebras of coefficients. Our investigations and the recent results of M. Frank [Characterizing…

If a differential operator $D$ on a smooth Hermitian vector bundle $S$ over a compact manifold $M$ is symmetric, it is essentially self-adjoint and so admits the use of functional calculus. If $D$ is also elliptic, then the Hilbert space of…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a right quaternionic Hilbert space and let $T$ be a bounded normal right quaternionic linear operator on $\mathcal{H}$. In this paper, we prove that there exists a unique spectral measure $E$ in $\mathcal{H}$ such that…

We investigate orthonormality-preserving, C*-conformal and conformal module mappings on Hilbert C*-modules to obtain their general structure. Orthogonality-preserving bounded module maps T act as a multiplication by an element \lambda of…

We consider pairs of operators $A,B\in B(H)$, where $H$ is a Hilbert space, such that there exist a linear isometry $f$ from the span of $\{A,B\}$ into $\mathbb{C}^2$ mapping $A,B$ into orthonormal vectors. We prove some necessary…

We introduce a notion of approximate orthogonality preserving mappings between Hilbert $C^*$-modules. We define the concept of $(\delta, \varepsilon)$-orthogonality preserving mapping and give some sufficient conditions for a linear mapping…

We prove that the C*-algebra of a minimal diffeomorphism satisfies Blackadar's Fundamental Comparability Property for positive elements. This leads to the classification, in terms of K-theory and traces, of the isomorphism classes of…

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…

We present a necessary and sufficient condition for the norm-parallelism of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. We also give a characterization of the Birkhoff--James orthogonality for Hilbert space operators. Moreover, we discuss…

Let $A$ be a unital operator algebra. Let us assume that every {\it bounded\/} unital homomorphism $u\colon \ A\to B(H)$ is similar to a {\it contractive\/} one. Let $\text{\rm Sim}(u) = \inf\{\|S\|\, \|S^{-1}\|\}$ where the infimum runs…
