Motivated by the definition of a semigroup compactification of a locally compact group and a large collection of examples, we introduce the notion of an (operator) "homogeneous left dual Banach algebra" (HLDBA) over a (completely…

An algebra of bounded linear operators on a Banach space is said to be {\em strongly compact} if its unit ball is precompact in the strong operator topology, and a bounded linear operator on a Banach space is said to be {\em strongly…

We consider the following question: Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an abelian self-adjoint algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Assume that $\mathcal{A}$ is invariant under conjugation by a unitary operator $U$, i.e., $U^*…

An operator *-algebra is a non-selfadjoint operator algebra with completely isometric involution. We show that any operator *-algebra admits a faithful representation on a Hilbert space in such a way that the involution coincides with the…

Let ${\mathcal B}(H)$ denote the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space $H$ with $\dim H\geq 3$, and let $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal B$ be subsets of ${\mathcal B}(H)$ which contain all rank one operators.…

Let $\mathcal{I,J}$ be symmetric quasi-Banach ideals of compact operators on an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space $H$, let $\mathcal{J:I}$ be a space of multipliers from $\mathcal{I}$ to $\mathcal{J}$. Obviously, ideals…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\mathcal A$ be the Banach algebra $B(X)$ of bounded (i.e. continuous) linear transformations (to be called operators) on $X$ to itself. Let $\mathcal E$ be the set of idempotents in $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal…

We study Birkhoff-James orthogonality of compact (bounded) linear operators between Hilbert spaces and Banach spaces. Applying the notion of semi-inner-products in normed linear spaces and some related geometric ideas, we generalize and…

Let $\mathcal{A}_1$ and $\mathcal{A}_2$ be standard operator algebras on complex Banach spaces $X_1$ and $X_2$, respectively. For $k\geq2$, let $(i_1,...,i_m)$ be a sequence with terms chosen from $\{1,\ldots,k\}$, and assume that at least…

Let $A$ be a unital Banach algebra. We give a characterization of the left Banach $A$-modules $X$ for which there exists a commutative unital $C^*$-algebra $C(K)$, a linear isometry $i\colon X\to C(K)$, and a contractive unital homomorphism…

Let H be a complex Hilbert space, B(H) and S(H) be the spaces of all bounded operators and all self-adjoint operators on H, respectively. We give the concrete forms of the maps on B(H) and also S(H) which preserve the spectrum of certain…

In this work, generalizations of some inequalities for continuous $h$-synchronous ($h$-asynchronous) functions of linear bounded selfadjoint operators under positive linear maps in Hilbert spaces are proved.

The purpose of this paper is to characterize several classes of functional identities involving inverses with related mappings from a unital Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$ over the complex field into a unital $\mathcal{A}$-bimodule…

Let $\pi:P\to B$ be a smooth $G$-bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold $B$ and $c$ a smooth loop in $B$ of constant seed $a(>0)$, where $G$ is compact semi-simple Lie group. In this paper, we prove that the holonomy map ${\rm…

Given a complex Hilbert space H, we study the differential geometry of the manifold A of normal algebraic elements in Z=L(H), the algebra of bounded linear operators on H. We represent A as a disjoint union of subsets M of Z and, using the…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra and $I$ a dense ideal in $A$. A natural question in the theory of operator algebras is whether the property that all derivations $D: A \to I$ are inner (implemented by elements in $I$) implies that all…

In a real Hilbert spaces H a smooth operator F is studied, whose derivative at each point of its domain is a symmetric operator. In terms of abstract boundary conditions locally self-adjoint extensions of this operator are described. We use…

Given a Hilbert space and the generator $A$ of a strongly continuous, exponentially stable, semigroup on this Hilbert space. For any $g(-s) \in {\mathcal H}_{\infty}$ we show that there exists an infinite-time admissible output operator…

This work presents a rigorous characterization of inner products on the Hilbert space $S_2$ of Hilbert--Schmidt operators. We first deal with a general setting of continuous sesquilinear forms on a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$, and provide a…

On finite dimensional spaces, it is apparent that an operator is the product of two positive operators if and only if it is similar to a positive operator. Here, the class ${\mathcal L}^{+2}$ of bounded operators on separable infinite…
