In this paper we establish maximum principles for weakly 1-coercive operators $L$ on complete, non-compact Riemannian manifolds $M$. In particular, we search for conditions under which one can guarantee that solutions $u$ of differential…

The main result of the paper shows that, for 1<p and 1<=q, a linear operator T from l_p to l_q attains its norm if, and only if, there exists a not weakly null maximizing sequence for T (counterexamples can be easily constructed when p=1).…

It is shown that if $A,B\in \mathbb{B}\left( \mathcal{H} \right)$ be positive operators, then \begin{equation*} \begin{aligned} A\#B&\le \frac{1}{1-2\mu }{A^{\frac{1}{2}}}{{F}_{\mu }}\left( {A^{-\frac{1}{2}}}B{A^{-\frac{1}{2}}}…

We prove that for a homogeneous linear partial differential operator $\mathcal A$ of order $k \le 2$ and an integrable map $f$ taking values in the essential range of that operator, there exists a function $u$ of special bounded variation…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a function in a naturally appearing functional space to be a fixed point of the Ruelle-Thurston operator associated to a rational function, see Lemma 2.1. The proof uses essentially a recent…

We show a general relation between fixed point stability of suitably perturbed transfer operators and convergence to equilibrium (a notion which is strictly related to decay of correlations). We apply this relation to deterministic…

We prove that if $M\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a bounded subanalytic submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $B(x_0,\epsilon)\cap M$ is connected for every $x_0\in\overline{M}$ and $\epsilon>0$ small, then, for $p\in [1,\infty)$ sufficiently…

We present new conditions for semigroups of positive operators to converge strongly as time tends to infinity. Our proofs are based on a novel approach combining the well-known splitting theorem by Jacobs, de Leeuw and Glicksberg with a…

If $(X,J)$ is an almost complex manifold, then a function $u$ is said to be plurisubharmonic on $X$ if it is upper semi-continuous and its restriction to every local pseudo-holomorphic curve is subharmonic. As in the complex case, it is…

In this article, we give an abstract characterization of the ``identity'' of an operator space $V$ by looking at a quantity $n_{cb}(V,u)$ which is defined in analogue to a well-known quantity in Banach space theory. More precisely, we show…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a type ${\rm II_1}$ factor and let $\tau$ be the faithful normal tracial state on $\mathcal{M}$. In this paper, we prove that given an $X \in \mathcal{M}$, $X=X^*$, then there is a decomposition of the identity into $N…

In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a bounded linear Hilbert space operator to be an $m$-isometry for an unspecified $m$ written in terms of conditions that are applied to "one vector at a time". We provide…

We prove that if an amenable operator algebra is nearly contained in a complemented dual operator algebra, then it can be embedded inside this dual operator algebra via a similarity. The proof relies on a B.E. Johnson Theorem on…

Given a Radon measure $\mu$ on $R^d$, which may be non doubling, we introduce a space of type BMO with respect to this measure. It is shown that many properties that hold when $\mu$ is doubling remain valid for the space BMO introduced in…

Let $\mu$ be a Radon measure on $R^d$, which may be non doubling. The only condition that $\mu$ must satisfy is $\mu(B(x,r))\leq C r^n$, for all $x,r$ and for some fixed $0<n\leq d$. Recently we introduced spaces of type $BMO(\mu)$ and…

In this article we study the action of the the Hilbert matrix operator $\mathcal H$ from the space of bounded analytic functions into conformally invariant Banach spaces. In particular, we describe the norm of $\mathcal{H}$ from $H^\infty$…

Let $u(s,t)$ be a continuous potential density of a symmetric L\'evy process or diffusion with state space $T$ killed at $T_{0}$, the first hitting time of $0$, or at $\lambda \wedge T_{0}$, where $\lambda$ is an independent exponential…

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for local unitary (LU) operators to leave invariant the set of 1-qubit reduced density matrices of a multi-qubit state. LU operators with this property are tensor products of {\it cyclic local}…

Given operators $A,B$ in some ideal $\mathcal{I}$ in the algebra $\mathcal{L}(H)$ of all bounded operators on a separable Hilbert space $H$, can we give conditions guaranteeing the existence of a trace-class operator $C$ such that $B…

Whether an almost-commuting pair of operators must be close to a commuting pair is a central question in operator and matrix theory. We investigate this problem for pairs of $C^*$-subalgebras $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ of…
