The main goal of this paper is to characterise all the possible Ces\`aro and $L$-asymptotic limits of powerbounded, complex matrices. The investigation of the $L$-asymptotic limit of a powerbounded operator goes back to Sz.-Nagy and it…

C*-algebras are rings, sometimes nonunital, obeying certain axioms that ensure a very well-behaved representation theory upon Hilbert space. Moreover, there are some well-known features of the representation theory leading to subtle…

We study the s-numbers of elementary operators acting on C*-algebras. The main results are the following: If $\tau$ is any tensor norm and $a,b\in B(H)$ are such that the sequences $s(a),s(b)$ of their singular numbers belong to a stable…

It is shown that the metric on the union of the sets $X$ and $Y$ defines a Hilbert $C^*$-module over the uniform Roe algebra of the space $X$ with a fixed metric $d_X$. A number of examples of such Hilbert $C^*$-modules are described.

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 seminorm…

Let $X$ be a right Hilbert module over a $C^*$-algebra $A$ equipped with the canonical operator space structure. We define an elementary operator on $X$ as a map $\phi : X \to X$ for which there exists a finite number of elements $u_i$ in…

Let $C^*(\cls)$ be the $C^*$ algebra generated by an operator system $\cls$ i.e. a unital $*$-closed subspace of a unital $C^*$ algebra $\cla$. We prove that any complete order isomorphism $\cli:\cls \raro \cls'$ between two such operator…

In this paper, we introduce a new type of parallelism for bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\big(\mathscr{H}, \langle \cdot ,\cdot \rangle\big)$ based on numerical radius. More precisely, we consider operators $T$ and $S$ which…

Let $E,F$ be exact operators (For example subspaces of the $C^*$-algebra $K(H)$ of all the compact operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$). We study a class of bounded linear maps $u\colon E\to F^*$ which we call tracially…

If $T$ is a (densely defined) self-adjoint operator acting on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and $I$ stands for the identity operator, we introduce the delta function operator $\lambda \mapsto \delta \left(\lambda I-T\right) $ at…

Let $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and let $N(\cdot)$ be a norm on $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$. For every $0\leq \nu \leq 1$, we introduce the $w_{_{(N,\nu)}}(A)$ as…

We analyze statistical properties of complex eigenvalues of random matrices $\hat{A}$ close to unitary. Such matrices appear naturally when considering quantized chaotic maps within a general theory of open linear stationary systems with…

An AF C*-algebra has a natural filtration as an increasing sequence of finite dimensional C*-algebras. We show that it is possible to construct a Dirac operator which relates to this filtration in a natural way and which will induce a…

We establish a regular sampling theory in the range of the analysis operator of a continuous frame having a unitary structure. The unitary structure is related with a unitary representation of a locally compact abelian group on a separable…

A classical result of Sz.-Nagy asserts that a Hilbert-space contraction operator $T$ can be lifted to an isometry $V$. A more general multivariable setting of recent interest for these ideas is the case where (i) the unit disk is replaced…
