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 study $H=D^*D+V$, where $D$ is a first order elliptic differential operator acting on sections of a Hermitian vector bundle over a Riemannian manifold $M$, and $V$ is a Hermitian bundle endomorphism. In the case when $M$ is geodesically…
This is a continuation of our previous paper. We consider a certain order-like relation for positive operators on a Hilbert space. This relation is defined by using the Jensen inequality with respect to the square-root function. We show…
We consider symmetry operators a from the group ring C[S_N] which act on the Hilbert space H of the 1D spin-1/2 Heisenberg magnetic ring with N sites. We investigate such symmetry operators a which are self-adjoint (in a sence defined in…
A new geometric proof of the spectral theorem for unbounded self-adjoint operators A in a Hilbert space H is given based on a splitting of A in positive and negative parts A+ and A-. For both operators A+ and A- the spectral family can be…
Certain operator algebras A on a Hilbert space have the property that every densely defined linear transformation commuting with A is closable. Such algebras are said to have the closability property. They are important in the study of the…
Let H be a Hilbert space, L(H) the algebra of all bounded linear operators on H and <, >_A : H \times H \to C the bounded sesquilinear form induced by a selfadjoint A in L(H), < \xi, \eta >_A = < A \xi, \eta >, \xi, \eta in H. Given T in…
We prove a new criterion for the essential self-adjointness of pseudodifferential operators that does not involve ellipticity-type assumptions. For example, we show that self-adjointness holds in case the symbol is $C^{2d+3}$ with…
Let $A$ be a bounded, injective and self-adjoint linear operator on a complex separable Hilbert space. We prove that there is a pure isometry, $V$, so that $AV>0$ and $A$ is Hankel with respect to $V$, i.e. $V^*A = AV$, if and only if $A$…
In this note the following theorem is proved. Let $\mathcal H$ and $\mathcal K$ be Hilbert spaces. Let $H_0$ be a self-adjoint operator on $\mathcal H,$ $F \colon \mathcal H \to \mathcal K$ be a closed $|H_0|^{1/2}$-compact operator, and $J…
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…
A spectral theory of linear operators on rigged Hilbert spaces (Gelfand triplets) is developed under the assumptions that a linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is a perturbation of a selfadjoint operator, and the spectral…
Given self-adjoint operators $A, B\in\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ it is said $A\leq_uB$ whenever $A\leq U^*BU$ for some unitary operator $U$. We show that $A\leq_u B$ if and only if $f(g(A)^r)\leq_uf(g(B)^r)$ for any increasing operator convex…
For a general self-adjoint Hamiltonian operator $H_0$ on the Hilbert space $L^2(\RE^d)$, we determine the set of all self-adjoint Hamiltonians $H$ on $L^2(\RE^d)$ that dynamically confine the system to an open set $\Omega \subset \RE^d$…
Given a self-adjoint involution J on a Hilbert space H, we consider a J-self-adjoint operator L=A+V on H where A is a possibly unbounded self-adjoint operator commuting with J and V a bounded J-self-adjoint operator anti-commuting with J.…
We prove the Weyl-von Neumann-Berg theorem for quaternionic right linear operators (not necessarily bounded) in a quaternionic Hilbert space: Let $N$ be a right linear normal (need not be bounded) operator in a quaternionic separable…
Every unital nonselfadjoint operator algebra possesses canonical and functorial classes of faithful (even completely isometric) Hilbert space representations satisfying a double commutant theorem generalizing von Neumann's classical result.…
In this paper first we give a partial answer to a question of L. Moln\'ar and W. Timmermann. Namely, we will describe those linear (not necessarily bijective) transformations on the set of self-adjoint matrices which preserve a unitarily…
An operator algebra $\mathcal{A}$ acting on a Hilbert space is said to have the closability property if every densely defined linear transformation commuting with $\mathcal{A}$ is closable. In this paper we study the closability property of…
