The aim of this paper is to solve a linear preserver problem on the function algebra $C(X)$. We show that in case $X$ is a first countable compact Hausdorff space, every linear bijection $\phi:C(X)\to C(X)$ having the property that…

Researchers have identified complex matrices $A$ such that a bounded linear operator $B$ acting on a Hilbert space will admit a dilation of the form $A \otimes I$ whenever the numerical range inclusion relation $W(B) \subseteq W(A)$ holds.…

For a given unitary operator $U$ on a separable complex Hilbert space $\h$, we describe the set $\mathscr{C}_{c}(U)$ of all conjugations $C$ (antilinear, isometric, and involutive maps) on $\h$ for which $C U C = U$. As this set might be…

A well-known result says that the Euclidean unit ball is the unique fixed point of the polarity operator. This result implies that if, in $\mathbb{R}^n$, the unit ball of some norm is equal to the unit ball of the dual norm, then the norm…

This note concerns uniform equicontinuity of families of operators on a separable Hilbert space H, and of families of maps on B(H). It is shown that a one parameter group of automorphisms is uniformly equicontinuous if and only if the group…

We give a different presentation of a recent bijection due to Chapuy and Dol\k{e}ga for nonorientable bipartite quadrangulations and we extend it to the case of nonorientable general maps. This can be seen as a Bouttier--Di…

Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal G}_{k}(H)$ be the Grassmannian formed by $k$-dimensional subspaces of $H$. Suppose that $\dim H>2k$ and $f$ is an orthogonality preserving injective transformation of ${\mathcal…

Suppose $\mathscr M$ and $\mathscr N$ are von Neumann algebras. Two operators $A$ and $B$ in $\mathscr M$ are said to be orthogonal if $A^*B=0$, meaning their ranges are orthogonal. Let $\varphi\colon\mathscr M\to\mathscr N$ be a map. We…

Hua's fundamental theorem of geometry of hermitian matrices characterizes all bijective maps on the space of all hermitian matrices, which preserve adjacency in both directions. In this and subsequent paper we characterize maps on the set…

In this paper, we present a Douglas-Rachford splitting algorithm within a Hilbert space framework that yields a projected solution for a quasi-variational inequality. This is achieved under the conditions that the operator associated with…

Let M\"ob be the biholomorphic automorphism group of the unit disc of the complex plane, $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex separable Hilbert space and $\mathcal{U}(\mathcal{H})$ be the group of all unitary operators. Suppose $\mathcal{H}$ is a…

Solutions that satisfy classically the Burgers equation except, perhaps, on a closed set S of the plane of potential singularities whose Hausdorff 1-measure is zero, $H^1(S) = 0$, are necessarily identically constant. We show this under the…

Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal C}$ be a conjugacy class of finite rank self-adjoint operators on $H$ with respect to the action of unitary operators. We suppose that ${\mathcal C}$ is formed by operators of rank $k$…

We show that bounded solutions of the quasilinear elliptic equation $\Delta_{p(x)} u=g+div(\textbf{F})$ are locally H\"{o}lder continuous provided that the functions $g$ and $\textbf{F}$ are in suitable Lebesgue spaces.

We shall discuss the inhomogeneous Dirichlet problem for: $f(x,u, Du, D^2u) = \psi(x)$ where $f$ is a "natural" differential operator, with a restricted domain $F$, on a manifold $X$. By "natural" we mean operators that arise intrinsically…

For a positive integer $n$ let $\mathcal{X}_n$ be either the algebra $M_n$ of $n \times n$ complex matrices, the set $N_n$ of all $n \times n$ normal matrices, or any of the matrix Lie groups $\mathrm{GL}(n)$, $\mathrm{SL}(n)$ and…

Let $A$ and $B$ be unital separable simple amenable \CA s which satisfy the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Suppose {that} $A$ and $B$ are $\mathcal Z$-stable and are of rationally tracial rank no more than one. We prove the following:…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be an infinite dimensional Hilbert space and $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ be the C*-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $\mathcal{H}$, equipped with the operator-norm. By improving the Brown-Pearcy construction,…

For every operator space $X$ the $C^\ast$-algebra containing it in a universal way is residually finite-dimensional (that is, has a separating family of finite-dimensional representations). In particular, the free $C^\ast$-algebra on any…

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…
