Given a right ideal $I$ in a ring $R$, the idealizer of $I$ in $R$ is the largest subring of $R$ in which $I$ becomes a two-sided ideal. In this paper we consider idealizers in the second Weyl algebra $A_2$, which is the ring of…

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…

We show that if the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on a reflexive Banach function space $X(\mathbb{R})$ and on its associate space $X'(\mathbb{R})$, then the space $X(\mathbb{R})$ has an unconditional wavelet basis. As a…

This article is to give an infinite dimensional analogue of a result of Choi and Effros. We say that an (not necessarily unital) operator system $T$ is \emph{dualizable} if one can find an equivalent dual matrix norm on the dual space $T^*$…

The unique maximal ideal in the Banach algebra $L(E)$, $E = (\oplus \ell^\infty(n))_{\ell^1}$, is identified. The proof relies on techniques developed by Laustsen, Loy and Read and a dichotomy result for operators mapping into $L^1$ due to…

It is well known that the only proper non-trivial norm-closed ideal in the algebra L(X) for X=\ell_p (1 \le p < \infty) or X=c_0 is the ideal of compact operators. The next natural question is to describe all closed ideals of…

Given an operator ideal I, a Banach space E has the I-approximation property if operators on E can be uniformly approximated on compact subsets of E by operators belonging to I. In this paper the I- approximation property is studied in…

In this paper we consider we study various classical operator ideals (for instance, the ideals of strictly (co)singular, weakly compact, Dunford-Pettis operators) either on $C^*$-algebras, or preduals of von Neumann algebras.

We prove that for every bounded linear operator $T:X\to X$, where $X$ is a non-reflexive quotient of a von Neumann algebra, the point spectrum of $T^*$ is non-empty (i.e. for some $\lambda\in\mathbb C$ the operator $\lambda I-T$ fails to…

We give an introduction to the realisation theory for infinite-dimensional systems. That is, we show that for any function $G$, analytic and bounded in the right half of the complex plane, there exists operators $A,B,C$ such that…

We initiate the study of the small scale geometry of operator spaces. The authors have previously shown that a map between operator spaces which is completely coarse (that is, the sequence of its amplifications is equi-coarse) must be…

For an operator ideal $\mathcal A$, we study the composition operator ideals ${\mathcal A}\circ{\mathcal K}$, ${\mathcal K}\circ{\mathcal A}$ and ${\mathcal K}\circ{\mathcal A}\circ{\mathcal K}$, where $\mathcal K$ is the ideal of compact…

We construct a Banach space $Z$ such that the lattice of closed two-sided ideals of the Banach algebra $\mathscr{B}(Z)$ of bounded operators on $Z$ is as follows: $$ \{0\}\subset \mathscr{K}(Z)\subset\mathscr{E}(Z) \raisebox{-.5ex}%…

We study a systematic way to produce a Lipschitz operator ideal from a Banach linear operator ideal $\mathcal A$. For maximal and minimal operator ideals $\mathcal A$, the Lipschitz maximal hull and minimal kernel of the Lipschitz operator…

Given two real Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ with dimensions greater than one, it is shown that there is a sequence $\{T_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of norm attaining norm-one operators from $X$ to $Y$ and a point $x_0\in X$ with $\|x_0\|=1$, such…

We develop general techniques and present an approach to solve the problem of constructing a maximal Banach ideal $({\frak A},{\bf A)}$ which does not satisfy a transfer of the norm estimation in the principle of local reflexivity to its…

We prove some refinements of an inequality due to X. Zhan in an arbitrary complex Hilbert space by using some results on the Heinz inequality. We present several related inequalities as well as new variants of the Corach--Porta--Recht…

We study the lattice of closed ideals of bounded operators on two families of Banach spaces: the Baernstein spaces $B_p$ for $1<p<\infty$ and the Schreier spaces $S_p$ for $1\le p<\infty$. Our main conclusion is that there are…

A map between operator spaces is called completely coarse if the sequence of its amplifications is equi-coarse. We prove that all completely coarse maps must be $\mathbb R$-linear. On the opposite direction of this result, we introduce a…

We construct operator systems $\mathfrak C_I$ that are universal in the sense that all operator systems can be realized as their quotients. They satisfy the operator system lifting property. Without relying on the theorem by Kirchberg, we…
