We show that all Hankel operators $H$ realized as integral operators with kernels $h(t+s)$ in $L^2 ({\Bbb R}_{+}) $ can be quasi-diagonalized as $H= {\sf L}^* \Sigma {\sf L} $. Here ${\sf L}$ is the Laplace transform, $\Sigma$ is the…

Suppose $\Cal J$ is a two-sided quasi-Banach ideal of compact operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $\Cal H$. We show that an operator $T\in\Cal J$ can be expressed as finite linear combination of commutators $[A,B]$…

We show that a diagonalizable (non-Hermitian) Hamiltonian H is pseudo-Hermitian if and only if it has an antilinear symmetry, i.e., a symmetry generated by an invertible antilinear operator. This implies that the eigenvalues of H are real…

In this paper we study the dynamics of the composition operators defined in the Schwartz space $\mathcal{S}(\mathbb{R})$ of rapidly decreasing functions. We prove that such an operator is never supercyclic and, for monotonic symbols, it is…

We show that a compact operator $A$ is a multiple of a positive semi-definite operator if and only if $$ \sigma(AB) \subseteq \overline{W(A)W(B)}, \quad\text{for all (rank one) operators $B$}. $$ An example of a normal operator is given to…

We provide a very general result that identifies the essential spectrum of broad classes of operators as exactly equal to the closure of the union of the spectra of suitable limits at infinity. Included is a new result on the essential…

We study monomial operators on $ L^2[0,1]$, that is bounded linear operators that map each monomial $x^n$ to a multiple of $x^{p_n}$ for some $p_n$. We show that they are all unitarily equivalent to weighted composition operators on a Hardy…

We prove that the spectrum of an n-dimensional semiclassical radial Schr\"odinger operator determines the potential within a large class of potentials for which we assume no symmetry or analyticity. Our proof is based on the first two…

Heisenberg-Weyl operators provide a Hermitian generalization of Pauli operators in higher dimensions. Positive maps arising from Heisenberg-Weyl operators have been studied along with several algebraic and spectral properties of…

In this paper, we develop spectral analysis of a discrete non-Hermitian quantum system that is a discrete counterpart of some continuous quantum systems on a complex contour. In particular, simple conditions for discreteness of the spectrum…

We obtain a description of the spectrum of bidual algebra $A^{**}$ of a uniform algebra $A$. This spectrum turns out to be a quotient space of the hyper-Stonean envelope of the spectrum of $A$.
