We describe the closures of locally divergent orbitsunder the action of tori on Hilbert modular spaces of rank r = 2. In particular, we prove that if D is a maximal R-split torus acting on a real Hilbert modular space then every locally…

A non-empty subset of a topological space is irreducible if whenever it is covered by the union of two closed sets, then already it is covered by one of them. Irreducible sets occur in proliferation: (1) every singleton set is irreducible,…

Let $T^n$ denote the n-dimensional torus. The class of the bounded operators on $L^2(T^n)$ with analytic orbit under the action of $T^n$ by conjugation with the translation operators is shown to coincide with the class of the zero-order…

We describe the norm-closures of the set $\mathfrak{C}_{\mathfrak{E}}$ of commutators of idempotent operators and the set $\mathfrak{E} - \mathfrak{E}$ of differences of idempotent operators acting on a finite-dimensional complex Hilbert…

If $T$ is a semibounded self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space $(H, \, (\cdot , \cdot))$ then the closure of the sesquilinear form $(T \cdot , \cdot)$ is a unique Hilbert space completion. In the non-semibounded case a closure is a…

We completely characterize the finite dimensional subsets A of any separable Hilbert space for which the notion of A-hypercyclicity coincides with the notion of hypercyclicity, where an operator T on a topological vector space X is said to…

The Invariant Subspace Problem (ISP) for Hilbert spaces asks if every bounded linear operator has a non-trivial closed invariant subspace. Due to the existence of universal operators (in the sense of Rota), the ISP may be solved by…

Tensor product operators on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces are studied. The focus is on bilinear tensor product operators. A tensor product operator on a pair of Hilbert spaces is a maximally general bilinear operator into a target…

We show that (for the weak operator topology) the set of unitary operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space is residual in the set of all contractions. The analogous result holds for isometries and the strong operator…

Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional, reflexive, separable Hilbert space and $NA(H)$ the class of all norm-attainble operators on $H.$ In this note, we study an implicit scheme for a canonical representation of nonexpansive contractions in…

Suppose that $\lambda - T$ is left-invertible in $L(H)$ for all $\lambda \in \Omega$, where $\Omega$ is an open subset of the complex plane. Then an operator-valued function $L(\lambda)$ is a left resolvent of $T$ in $\Omega$ if and only if…

We prove that the realization $A_p$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N),\,1<p<\infty$, of the elliptic operator $A=(1+|x|^{\alpha})\Delta+b|x|^{\alpha-1}\frac{x}{|x|}\cdot \nabla-c|x|^{\beta}$ with domain $D(A_p) =\{ u \in W^{2,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\, |\, Au…

Let $T$ be a bounded quaternionic normal operator on a right quaternionic Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We show that $T$ can be factorized in a strongly irreducible sense, that is, for any $\delta >0$ there exist a compact operator $K$ with…

We prove that the set of all complex symmetric operators on a separable, infinite-dimensional Hilbert space is not norm closed.

The polar factor of a bounded operator acting on a Hilbert space is the unique partial isometry arising in the polar decomposition. It is well known that the polar factor might not be a best approximant to its associated operator in the set…

In this paper, we are concerned with conditions under which $[p(T)]^*=\bar{p}(T^*)$, where $p(z)$ is a one-variable complex polynomial, and $T$ is an unbounded, densely defined, and linear operator. Then, we deal with the validity of the…

Let $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a bounded Lipschitz domain, $\omega$ be a high order modulus of continuity and let $T$ be a convolution Calder\'{o}n-Zygmund operator. We characterize the bounded restricted operators $T_D$ on the Zygmund…

Using a Hilbert space framework inspired by the methods of orthogonal projections and Hodge decompositions, we study a general class of problems (called Z-problems) that arise in effective media theory, especially within the theory of…

A certain class of matrix-valued Borel matrix functions is introduced and it is shown that all functions of that class naturally operate on any operator T in a finite type I von Neumann algebra M in a way such that uniformly bounded…

Let $A$ and $B$ be local operators in Hamiltonian quantum systems with $N $ degrees of freedom and finite-dimensional Hilbert space. We prove that the commutator norm $\lVert [A(t),B]\rVert$ is upper bounded by a topological combinatorial…
