Let $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the $C^{\ast}$-algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\big(\mathcal{H}, \langle\cdot, \cdot\rangle\big)$. Given a positive operator $A\in\B(\h)$, and a number $\lambda\in [0,1]$, a…

We investigate the problem of existence of a bounded extension to $C(K)$ of a bounded $c_0(I)$-valued operator $T$ defined on the subalgebra of $C(K)$ induced by a continuous increasing surjection $\phi:K\to L$, where $K$ and $L$ are…

We treat spectral problems by twisted groupoid methods. To Hausdorff locally compact groupoids endowed with a continuous $2$-cocycle one associates the reduced twisted groupoid $C^*$-algebra. Elements (or multipliers) of this algebra admit…

It is proved that for adjointable operators $A$ and $B$ between Hilbert $C^*$-modules, certain majorization conditions are always equivalent without any assumptions on $\overline{\mathcal{R}(A^*)}$, where $A^*$ denotes the adjoint operator…

We show that a bounded linear operator on a Banach space with closed range has range-kernel complementarity if and only if its generalized amplitude is less than $\pi$. An application to the strong convergence of the iterations of a bounded…

The primary purpose of the present paper is to investigate when relations of the types $|AB|=|A||B|$, $|A\pm B|\leq |A|+|B|$, $||A|-|B||\leq |A\pm B|$ and $|\overline{\text{Re} A}|\leq |A|$ (among others) hold in an unbounded operator…

Johnson and Zippin recently showed that if $X$ is a weak^*-closed subspace of $\ell_1$ and T:X-> C(K) is any bounded operator then T can extended to a bounded operator $\tilde T:\ell_1\to C(K).$ We give a converse result: if X is a subspace…

In this paper, we study the numerical range of Jacobi operators and it is shown that under certain conditions, the boundary of the numerical range of these operators can be non-round only at the points where it touches the essential…

This article investigates the convergence properties of s-numbers of certain truncations of bounded linear operators between Banach spaces. We prove a generalized version of a known convergence result for the approximation numbers of…

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…

For a conjugation $C$ on a separable, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, the set $\mathcal{S}_C$ of $C$-symmetric operators on $\mathcal{H}$ forms a weakly closed, selfadjoint, Jordan operator algebra. In this paper we study…

In this note we characterize the essential numerical range of a block diagonal o\-pe\-ra\-tor $T=\bigoplus_i T_i$ in terms of the numerical ranges $\{W(T_i)\}_i$ of its components. Specifically, the essential numerical range of $T$ is the…

Let $\mathfrak{M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra on a Hilbert space equipped with a faithful normal semifinite trace $\tau$. A closed densely defined operator $x$ affiliated with $\mathfrak{M}$ is called $\tau$-measurable if there…

We give positive descriptions for certain Schubert structure constants $c_{u,v}^w$ for the full flag variety in Lie types $C$ and $D$. This is accomplished by first observing that a number of the $K=GL(n,\C)$-orbit closures on these flag…
