Let $\sigma(A)$, $\rho(A)$ and $r(A)$ denote the spectrum, spectral radius and numerical radius of a bounded linear operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $H$, respectively. We show that a linear operator $A$ satisfying $$\rho(AB)\le r(A)r(B)…

For an operator in a possibly infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of a certain class, we set down axioms of an abstract intersection theory, from which the Riemann hypothesis regarding the spectrum of that operator follows. In our previous…

We demonstrate a method of associating the principal symbol at a $K$-point with a linear differential operator acting between modules over a commutative algebra, and we use it to define the ellipticity of a linear differential operator in a…

We consider a self-adjoint operator $T$ on a separable Hilbert space, with pure-point and simple spectrum with accumulations at finite points. Explicit conditions are stated on the eigenvalues of $T$ and on the bounded perturbation $V$…

Let $U$ be a unitary operator defined on some infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space ${\cal H}$. Under some suitable regularity assumptions, it is known that a local positive commutation relation between $U$ and an auxiliary…

A theorem that is of aid in computing the domain of the adjoint operator is provided. It may serve e.g. as a criterion for selfadjointness of a symmetric operator, for normality of a formally normal operator or for $H$--selfadjointness of…

We shall consider a double infinite, hermitian, complex entry matrix $A=[a_{x,y}]_{x,y\in\mathbb Z}$, with $a_{x,y}^*=a_{y,x}$, $x,y\in\mathbb Z$. Assuming that the matrix is almost of a finite bandwidth, i.e. there exists an integer $n> 0$…

For a nonnegative self-adjoint operator $A_0$ acting on a Hilbert space $\mathfrak{H}$ singular perturbations of the form $A_0+V, \ V=\sum_{1}^{n}{b}_{ij}<\psi_j,\cdot>\psi_i$ are studied under some additional requirements of symmetry…

We show that a diagonalizable (non-Hermitian) Hamiltonian H is pseudo-Hermitian if and only if it has an antilinear symmetry, i.e., a symmetry generated by an invertible antilinear operator. This implies that the eigenvalues of H are real…

In this paper, we give the complete description of maps on self-adjoint bounded operators on Hilbert space which preserve a triadic relation involving the difference of operators and either commutativity or quasi-commutativity in both…

This paper investigates quasi-selfadjoint extensions of dual pairs of linear relations in Hilbert spaces. Some properties of dual pairs of linear relations are given and an Hermitian linear relation associated with a dual pair of linear…

Since their inception in the 30's by von Neumann, operator algebras have been used in shedding light in many mathematical theories. Classification results for self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint operator algebras manifest this approach, but a…

We investigate the Hardy space $H^1_L$ associated with a self-adjoint operator $L$ defined in a general setting in [S. Hofmann, et. al., Hardy spaces associated to non-negative self-adjoint operators satisfying Davies-Gaffney estimates,…

In this article, we prove the Weyl-von Neumann theorem for antilinear skew-self-adjoint operators. More specifically, we prove the following: Let $A$ be an antilinear skew-self-adjoint operator on a separable Hilbert space $H$ whose kernel…

Let $\mathbb{B}_J(\mathcal H)$ denote the set of self-adjoint operators acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with spectra contained in an open interval $J$. A map $\Phi\colon\mathbb{B}_J(\mathcal H)\to {\mathbb B}(\mathcal H)_\text{sa} $…

For a conjugation $C$ on a separable, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, the set $\mathcal{S}_C$ of $C$-symmetric operators on $\mathcal{H}$ forms a weakly closed, selfadjoint, Jordan operator algebra. In this paper we study…

Symplectic self-adjointness of Hamiltonian operator matrices is studied, which arises in symplectic elasticity and optimal control. For the cases of diagonal domain and off-diagonal domain, necessary and sufficient conditions are shown. The…
