Weighted $L^p-L^r$ inequalities with arbitrary measurable non-negative weights for positive quasilinear integral operators with Oinarov's kernel on the semiaxis are characterized. Application to the boundedness of maximal operator in the…

The relation between nonlinear algebras and linear ones is established. For one-dimensional nonlinear deformed Heisenberg algebra with two operators we find the function of deformation for which this nonlinear algebra can be transformed to…

We characterize classes of linear maps between operator spaces $E$, $F$ which factorize through maps arising in a natural manner via the Pisier vector-valued non-commutative $L^p$ spaces $S_p[E^*]$ based on the Schatten classes on the…

In this note, some refinements of Young inequality and its reverse for positive numbers are proved and using these inequalities some operator versions and Hilbert-Schmidt norm versions for matrices of these inequalities are obtained.

We show that a positive linear map preserves local continuity (convergence) of the entropy if and only if it preserves finiteness of the entropy, i.e. transforms operators with finite entropy to operators with finite entropy. The last…

A linear operator on a Hilbert space $\mathbb{H}$, in the classical approach of von Neumann, must be symmetric to guarantee self-adjointness. However, it can be shown that the symmetry could be ommited by using a criterion for the graph of…

We generalise the Riesz representation theorems for positive linear functionals on $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm c}(X)$ and $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm 0}(X)$, where $X$ is a locally compact Hausdorff space, to positive linear operators from these spaces…

We use a model operator approach and the spectral theorem for self-adjoint operators in a Hilbert space to derive the basic results of abstract left-definite theory in a straightforward manner. The theory is amply illustrated with a variety…

We reflect on the notions of positivity and square roots. We review many examples which underline our thesis that square roots of positive maps related to *-algebras are Hilbert modules. As a result of our considerations we discuss…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex, separable Hilbert space, and $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the set of all bounded linear operators on $\mathcal{H}$. Given an orthogonal projection $P \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ and an operator $D \in…

We introduce the notion of one-sided mapping cones of positive linear maps between matrix algebras. These are convex cones of maps that are invariant under compositions by completely positive maps from either the left or right side. The…

This note will present a new proof of the fact that every uniformly bounded group of invertible elements in a finite von Neumann algebra is similar to a unitary group. The proof involves metric geometric arguments in the non-positively…

In the context of kernel optimization, we prove a result that yields new factorizations and realizations. Our initial context is that of general positive operator-valued kernels. We further present implications for Hilbert space-valued…

Let $M$ be a finite von Neumann algebra. In the first part, we give asymptotic results about $M$-stable sequences of weak*-continuous mappings which are related with operators belonging to $M$. In the second part, we extend, by a shorter…

We consider noncommutative rational functions as well as matrices in polynomials in noncommuting variables in two settings: in an algebraic context the variables are formal variables, and their rational functions generate the "free field";…

Using works of T.~Ando and L.~Gurvits, the well-known theorem of P.R.~Halmos concerning the existence of unitary dilations for contractive linear operators acting on Hilbert spaces recast as a result for $d$-tuples of contractive Hilbert…

We show how positive unital linear maps can be used to obtain lower bounds for the maximum distance between the eigenvalues of two normal matrices. Some related bounds for the spread and condition number of Hermitian matrices are also…

We show that a map between projection lattices of semi-finite von Neumann algebras can be extended to a Jordan $*$-homomorphism between the von Neumann algebras if this map is defined in terms of the support projections of images (under the…

We prove that certain closable derivations on the GNS Hilbert space associated with a non-tracial weight on a von Neumann algebra give rise to GNS-symmetric semigroups of contractive completely positive maps on the von Neumann algebra.

Let $L= - \mathrm{div} (A \nabla \cdot)$ be an elliptic operator defined on an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$, complemented with mixed boundary conditions. Under suitable assumptions on the operator and the geometry, we derive an atomic…
