In this article we study different aspects of Hermitian operators applying the concept of positive decompositions. On the one hand, we characterize the positivity of an Hermitian operator by means of a norm condition where the factors of…
We provide sufficient conditions on a Banach space $X$ in order that there exist norm attaining operators of rank at least two from $X$ into any Banach space of dimension at least two. For example, a rather weak such condition is the…

In our paper "Essential normality, essential norms and hyperrigidity" we claimed that the restriction of the identity representation of a certain operator system (constructed from a polynomial ideal) has the unique extension property,…
We explore the norm attainment set and the minimum norm attainment set of a bounded linear operator between Hilbert spaces and Banach spaces. Indeed, we obtain a complete characterization of both the sets, separately for operators between…
This paper considers basic properties of super-operator norms induced by Schatten p-norms. Such super-operator norms arise in various contexts in the study of quantum information. It is proved that for completely positive super-operators,…
An adjoint pair is a pair of densely defined linear operators $A, B$ on a Hilbert space such that $\langle Ax,y\rangle=\langle x,By\rangle$ for $x\in \cD(A), y \in \cD(B).$ We consider adjoint pairs for which $0$ is a regular point for both…
In this paper, we present new characterizations of normal and positive operators in terms of their powers. Among other things, we show that if $T^2$ is normal, $\mathcal{W}(T^{2k+1})$ lies on one side of a line passing through the origin…

Unbounded composition operators in $L^2$-space over discrete measure spaces are investigated. Normal, formally normal and quasinormal composition operators acting in $L^2$-spaces of this kind are characterized.
In this paper we explore the properties of a bounded linear operator defined on a Banach space, in light of operator norm attainment. Using Birkhoff-James orthogonality techniques, we give a necessary condition for a bounded linear operator…
A theorem that is of aid in computing the domain of the adjoint operator is provided. It may serve e.g. as a criterion for selfadjointness of a symmetric operator, for normality of a formally normal operator or for $H$--selfadjointness of…
In this paper, we give conditions forcing nilpotent matrices (and bounded linear operators in general) to be null or equivalently to be normal. Therefore, a non-zero operator having e.g. a positive real part is never nilpotent. The case of…
The theory of quaternionic operators has applications in several different fields such as quantum mechanics, fractional evolution problems, and quaternionic Schur analysis, just to name a few. The main difference between complex and…
In this paper, we show that the generalized Aluthge transforma- tions of a large class of operators (weighted conditional type operators) are normal. As a consequence, the operator MwEMu is p-hyponormal if and only if it is normal, and…
In this note, we show that for hyponormal Toeplitz operators, there exists a lower bound for the area of the spectrum. This extends the known estimate for the spectral area of Toeplitz operators with an analytic symbol.
For a separable complex Hilbert space $H$, we say that a bounded linear operator $T$ acting on $H$ is $C$-normal, where $C$ is a conjugation on $H$, if it satisfies $CT^*TC=TT^*$. For a normal operator, we give geometric conditions which…
Let $\mathscr{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space, and let $\mathscr{B}(\mathscr{H})$ denote the set of all bounded operators on $\mathscr{H}$ . For an operator $T \in \mathscr{B}(\mathscr{H})$, let $|T| := (T^*T)^{\frac{1}{2}}$. For $A$ in…
We study a class of rooted trees with a substitution type structure. These trees are not necessarily regular, but exhibit a lot of symmetries. We consider nearest neighbor operators which reflect the symmetries of the trees. The spectrum of…
