In this note we introduce the concept of the numerical range of a bounded linear operator with respect to a family of projections. We give a precise definition and elaborate on its connection to the classical numerical range as well as to…
It is shown that the numerical range of a linear operator operator in a Hilbert space is a (complete) $(1{+}\sqrt2)$-spectral set. The proof relies, among other things, in the behavior of the Cauchy transform of the conjugates of…
We prove that a bounded linear Hilbert space operator has the unit circle in its essential approximate point spectrum if and only if it admits an orbit satisfying certain orthogonality and almost-orthogonality relations. This result is…
This paper studies the diameter of the numerical range of bounded operators on Hilbert space and the induced seminorm, called the numerical diameter, on bounded linear maps between operator systems which is sensible in the case of unital…
Given a complex, separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, we characterize those operators for which $\| P T (I-P) \| = \| (I-P) T P \|$ for all orthogonal projections $P$ on $\mathcal{H}$. When $\mathcal{H}$ is finite-dimensional, we also…
We investigate $\rho$-orthogonality and its local symmetry in the space of bounded linear operators. A characterization of Hilbert space operators with symmetric numerical range is established in terms of $\rho$-orthogonality. Further, we…
The range of a trigonometric polynomial with complex coefficients can be interpreted as the image of the unit circle under a Laurent polynomial. We show that this range is contained in a real algebraic subset of the complex plane. Although…
Detecting polygons defined by a set of line segments in a plane is an important step in analyzing vector drawings. This paper presents an approach combining several algorithms to detect basic polygons from arbitrary line segments. The…
We study the numerical range of bounded linear operators on quaternionic Hilbert spaces and its relation with the S-spectrum. The class of complex operators on quaternionic Hilbert spaces is introduced and the upper bild of normal complex…
We completely characterize the Crawford number attainment set and the numerical radius attainment set of a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space. We study the intersection properties of the corresponding attainment sets of numerical…
We investigate the generalized quadratic operator defined by $$T =\left( \begin{array}{cc} a I_H & A \\ c A^* & bI_K \end{array} \right) ,$$ where $H$ and $K$ are Hilbert spaces, $A:K\to H$ is a bounded linear operator, $I_H$ and $I_K$…
We describe a polynomial time algorithm that takes as input a polygon with axis-parallel sides but irrational vertex coordinates, and outputs a set of as few rectangles as possible into which it can be dissected by axis-parallel cuts and…
A grid polygon is a polygon whose vertices are points of a grid. We define an injective map between permutations of length n and a subset of grid polygons on n vertices, which we call consecutive-minima polygons. By the kernel method, we…
The numerical range in the quaternionic setting is, in general, a non convex subset of the quaternions. The essential numerical range is a refinement of the numerical range that only keeps the elements that have, in a certain sense,…
Let X be a finite set of complex numbers and let A be a normal operator with spectrum X that acts on a separable Hilbert space H. Relative to a fixed orthonormal basis e_1,e_2, ... for H, A gives rise to a matrix whose diagonal is a…
The $n$-dimensional numerical range of a densely defined linear operator $T$ on a complex Hilbert space $\H$ is the set of vectors in $\C^n$ of the form $(< Te_1,e_1>,...,< Te_n,e_n>)$, where $e_1,...,e_n$ is an orthonormal system in $\H$,…
Polygons are compound geometric objects, but when trying to understand the expected behavior of a large collection of random polygons -- or even to formalize what a random polygon is -- it is convenient to interpret each polygon as a point…
Affiliated and normal operators in octonion Hilbert spaces are studied. Theorems about their properties and of related algebras are demonstrated. Spectra of unbounded normal operators are investigated.
The pentagram map takes a planar polygon $P$ to a polygon $P'$ whose vertices are the intersection points of consecutive shortest diagonals of $P$. The orbit of a convex polygon under this map is a sequence of polygons which converges…
We present some upper and lower bounds for the numerical radius of a bounded linear operator defined on complex Hilbert space, which improves on the existing upper and lower bounds. We also present an upper bound for the spectral radius of…
