We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a pair $S,T$ of Hilbert space operators in order that they satisfy $S^*=T$ and $T^*=S$. As a main result we establish an improvement of von Neumann's classical theorem on the positive…

Let $A$ be a positive bounded operator on a Hilbert space $\big(\mathcal{H}, \langle \cdot, \cdot\rangle \big)$. The semi-inner product ${\langle x, y\rangle}_A := \langle Ax, y\rangle$, $x, y\in\mathcal{H}$ induces a semi-norm…

For an $n\times n$ complex matrix $C$, the $C$-numerical range of a bounded linear operator $T$ acting on a Hilbert space of dimension at least $n$ is the set of complex numbers ${\rm tr}(CX^*TX)$, where $X$ is a partial isometry satisfying…

We present some new upper and lower bounds for the numerical radius of bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space and show that these are stronger than the existing ones. In particular, we prove that if $A$ is a bounded linear…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex, separable Hilbert space, and set $\mathfrak{c}($NIL$_2)=\{ MN - NM : N, M \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}), M^2 = 0 = N^2 \}$. When $\dim\, \mathcal{H}$ is finite, we characterise the set $\mathfrak{c}($NIL$_2)$…

We describe all isometries of the $q$-numerical radius on the space ${\mathcal K}(\mathcal H)$ of compact operators on a (possibly infinite-dimensional) Hilbert space $\mathcal H$.

We introduce a notion of joint spectrum for a tuple of compact operators on a separable Hilbert space and show that in many situations these operators commute if and only if the joint spectrum consists of countably many, locally finite,…

New inequalities for the numerical radius of bounded linear operators defined on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ are given. In particular, it is established that if $T$ is a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$…

The restricted numerical range $W_R(A)$ of an operator $A$ acting on a $D$-dimensional Hilbert space is defined as a set of all possible expectation values of this operator among pure states which belong to a certain subset $R$ of the of…

Let $n$ and $k$ be two positive integers with $k\leq n$ and $C$ an $n \times n$ matrix with nonnegative entries. In this paper, the rank-$k$ numerical range in the max algebra setting is introduced and studied. The related notions of the…

Let $K\subseteq{\mathbb R}^n$ be a convex semialgebraic set. The semidefinite extension degree ${\mathrm{sxdeg}}(K)$ of $K$ is the smallest number $d$ such that $K$ is a linear image of an intersection of finitely many spectrahedra, each of…

Let $\xi$ be an irrational algebraic real number and $(p_k / q_k)_{k \ge 1}$ denote the sequence of its convergents. Let $(u_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be a non-degenerate linear recurrence sequence of integers, which is not a polynomial sequence. We…

Hecke symmetries generalize the usual tensor symmetry of vector spaces $v\otimes w\arrow w\otimes v$ as well as the symmetry of vector superspaces. To a Hecke symmetry $R$ there associates a quadratic algebra which can be interpreted as the…

We show that there are functions $f$ in the H\"older class $C^{ { \alpha }}[0,1]$, $1< { \alpha }<2$ such that $f|_{A}$ is not convex, nor concave for any $A { \subset } [0,1]$ with $ { \bar { dim }_M } A> { \alpha }-1$. Our earlier result…

We study functions of bounded variation (and sets of finite perimeter) on a convex open set $\Omega\subseteq X$, $X$ being an infinite dimensional real Hilbert space. We relate the total variation of such functions, defined through an…

Motivated by applications in quantum information and quantum control, a new type of $C$"-numerical range, the relative $C$"-numerical range denoted $W_K(C,A)$, is introduced. It arises upon replacing the unitary group U(N) in the definition…

We study the relation between the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator and its multidimensional numerical range. It turns out that the multidimensional numerical range is a convex set whose extreme points are sequences of eigenvalues of the…

We prove that the closure of the numerical range of a $(n+1)$-periodic and $(2m+1)$-banded Toeplitz operator can be expressed as the closure of the convex hull of the uncountable union of numerical ranges of certain symbol matrices. In…

For a fixed $k\in\{1,\dots,d\}$ consider random vectors $X_0,\dots, X_{k}\in\mathbb R^d$ with an arbitrary spherically symmetric joint density function. Let $A$ be any non-singular $d\times d$ matrix. We show that the $k$-dimensional volume…
