In [10], Halmos proved an interesting result that the set of irreducible operators is dense in $\mathcal B(\mathcal H)$ in the sense of Hilbert-Schmidt approximation. In a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal M$ with separable predual, an operator…

Let $X,Y$ be Banach spaces, and fix a linear operator $T \in \mathcal{L}(X,Y)$, and ideals $\mathcal{I}, \mathcal{J}$ on $\omega$. We obtain Silverman--Toeplitz type theorems on matrices $A=(A_{n,k}: n,k \in \omega)$ of linear operators in…

Proper splittings of operators are commonly used to study the convergence of iterative processes. In order to approximate solutions of operator equations, in this article we deal with proper splittings of closed range bounded linear…

In this note we answer positively to two conjectures proposed by Nieraeth (2023) about the maximal operator on rescaled Banach function spaces. We also obtain a new criterion saying when the maximal operator bounded on a Banach function…

A left ideal of any $C^*$-algebra is an example of an operator algebra with a right contractive approximate identity (r.c.a.i.). Indeed left ideals in $C^*$-algebras may be characterized as the class of such operator algebras, which happen…

It is proved that the resolvent norm of an operator with a compact resolvent on a Banach space $X$ cannot be constant on an open set if the underlying space or its dual is complex strictly convex. It is also shown that this is not the case…

The construction of frames for a Hilbert space H can be equated to the decomposition of the frame operator as a sum of positive operators having rank one. This realization provides a different approach to questions regarding frames with…

Let T and C be two Hilbert space operators. We prove that if T is near, in a certain sense, to an operator completely polynomially dominated with a finite bound by C, then T is similar to an operator which is completely polynomially…

We study infinite order differential operators acting in the spaces of exponential type entire functions. We derive conditions under which such operators preserve the set of Laguerre entire functions which consists of the polynomials…

Let $\mathscr{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra and $a$ be a self-adjoint operator affiliated with $\mathscr{M}$. We define the notion of an "integral symmetrically normed ideal" of $\mathscr{M}$ and introduce a space $OC^{[k]}(\mathbb{R})…

We characterize left symmetric linear operators on a finite dimensional strictly convex and smooth real normed linear space $ \mathbb{X},$ which answers a question raised recently by one of the authors in \cite{S} [D. Sain,…

We study the question when for a given *-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ a sequence of cones $C_n\in M_n(\mathcal{A})$ can be realized as cones of positive operators in a faithful *-representation of $\mathcal{A}$ on a Hilbert space. A…

It is known that for every Banach space X and every proper WOT-closed subalgebra A of L(X), if A contains a compact operator then it is not transitive. That is, there exist non-zero x in X and f in X* such that f(Tx)=0 for all T in A. In…

We construct various examples of non-trivial closed ideals of the compact-by-approximable algebra $\mathfrak{A}_X =:\mathcal K(X)/\mathcal A(X)$ on Banach spaces $X$ failing the approximation property. The examples include the following:…

Well-bounded operators are linear operators on a Banach space $X$ that have an $AC[a,b]$ functional calculus for some interval $[a,b]$. A well-bounded operator is of type (B) if it can be written as an integral against a spectral family of…

For $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$, we prove the slice map conjecture for ideals in the operator space projective tensor product $A \hat\otimes B$. As an application, a characterization of prime ideals in the Banach $\ast$-algebra $A\hat\otimes…

We study the problem of extension and lifting of operators belonging to certain operator ideals, as well as that of their associated polynomials and holomorphic functions. Our results provide a characterization of $\mathcal{L}_1$ and…

A non-self-adjoint operator algebra is said to be residually finite dimensional (RFD) if it embeds into a product of matrix algebras. We characterize RFD operator algebras in terms of their matrix state space, and moreover show that an…

We prove that a condition of boundedness of the maximal function of a singular integral operator, that is known to be sufficient for the continuity of the corresponding integral operator in H\"{o}lder spaces, is actually also necessary in…

We introduce a framework for proving statements about linear operators by verification of ideal membership in a free algebra. More specifically, arbitrary first-order statements about identities of morphisms in preadditive semicategories…
