We study a specific family of symmetric norms on the algebra $\mathcal B(\mathcal H)$ of operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. With respect to each symmetric norm in this family the identity operator fails to attain…

Let $f$ be a symmetric norm on ${\mathbb R}^n$ and let ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$ be the set of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space ${\mathcal H}$ of dimension at least $n$. Define a norm on ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$ by…

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…

A bounded linear operator $A$ on a Hilbert space is posinormal if there exists a positive operator $P$ such that $AA^{*} = A^{*}PA$. Posinormality of $A$ is equivalent to the inclusion of the range of $A$ in the range of its adjoint $A^*$.…

Let $T\in\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ and $T=U|T|$ be its polar decomposition. We proved that (i) if $T$ is log-hyponormal or $p$-hyponormal and $U^n=U^\ast$ for some $n$, then $T$ is normal; (ii) if the spectrum of $U$ is contained in some…

A bounded linear operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is posinormal if there exists a positive operator $P$ such that $AA^{*} = A^{*}PA$. We show that if $A$ is posinormal with closed range, then $A^n$ is posinormal and has closed…

Given a complex, separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, we characterize those operators for which $\| P T (I-P) \| = \| (I-P) T P \|$ for all orthogonal projections $P$ on $\mathcal{H}$. When $\mathcal{H}$ is finite-dimensional, we also…

Let $\mathscr{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space, and let $\mathscr{B}(\mathscr{H})$ denote the set of all bounded operators on $\mathscr{H}$ . For an operator $T \in \mathscr{B}(\mathscr{H})$, let $|T| := (T^*T)^{\frac{1}{2}}$. For $A$ in…

We prove that for a right linear bounded normal operator on a quaternionic Hilbert space (quaternionic bounded normal operator) the norm and the numerical radius are equal. As a consequence of this result we give a new proof of the known…

In this paper, we characterize absolute norm-attainability for compact hyponormal operators. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a bounded linear compact hyponormal operator on an infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space to be…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be an atomless semifinite von Neumann algebra (or an atomic von Neumann algebra with all atoms having the same trace) acting on a (not necessarily separable) Hilbert space $H$ equipped with a semifinite faithful normal…

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…

Several unitarily invariant norm inequalities and numerical radius inequalities for Hilbert space operators are studied. We investigate some necessary and sufficient conditions for the parallelism of two bounded operators. For a finite rank…

A commuting triple of Hilbert space operators $(A,S,P)$ is said to be a \textit{$\mathbb{P}$-contraction} if the closed pentablock $\overline{\mathbb P}$ is a spectral set for $(A,S,P)$, where \[ \mathbb{P}:=\left\{(a_{21}, \mbox{tr}(A_0),…

This paper addresses the isomorphism problem for the universal (nonself-adjoint) operator algebras generated by a row contraction subject to homogeneous polynomial relations. We find that two such algebras are isometrically isomorphic if…

For $n$-normal operators $A$ [2, 4, 5], equivalently $n$-th roots $A$ of normal Hilbert space operators, both $A$ and $A^*$ satisfy the Bishop--Eschmeier--Putinar property $(\beta)_{\epsilon}$, $A$ is decomposable and the quasi-nilpotent…

Let $X,Y$ be normal bounded operators on a Hilbert space such that $e^X=e^Y$. If the spectra of $X$ and $Y$ are contained in the strip $\s$ of the complex plane defined by $|\Im(z)|\leq \pi$, we show that $|X|=|Y|$. If $Y$ is only assumed…

Given Hilbert space operators $A_i, B_i$, $i=1,2$, and $X$ such that $A_1$ commutes with $A_2$ and $B_!$ commutes with $B_2$, and integers $m, n\geq 1$, we say that the pairs of operators $(B_1,A_1)$ and $(B_2,A_2)$ are left-$(X,…

We investigate structural properties and normality criteria for certain classes of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. We show that an operator $T$ with polar decomposition $T = U|T|$ is self-adjoint if and only if $T$ is…

We present several operator and norm inequalities for Hilbert space operators. In particular, we prove that if $A_{1},A_{2},...,A_{n}\in {\mathbb B}({\mathscr H})$, then…
