Suppose $T$ and $S$ are bounded adjointable operators with close range between Hilbert C*-modules, then $TS$ has closed range if and only if $Ker(T)+Ran(S)$ is an orthogonal summand, if and only if $Ker(S^*)+Ran(T^*)$ is an orthogonal…

Suppose that c is a linear operator acting on an n-dimensional complex Hilbert Space H, and let tau denote the normalized trace on B(H). Set b_1 = (c+c*)/2 and b_2 = (c-c*)/2i, and write B for the the spectral scale of {b_1, b_2} with…

This paper is a continuation of a recent work on a new norm, christened the $ (\alpha, \beta)$-norm, on the space of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. We obtain some upper bounds for the said norm of $n\times n$ operator…

For $0<r<1$, let us consider the following annulus: \[ \mathbb A_r= \{ z\in \mathbb C\, : \, r<|z|<1 \}. \] A Hilbert space operator $T$ for which $\overline{\mathbb A}_r$ is a spectral set is called an $\mathbb A_r$-\textit{contraction}.…

The numerical range of a bounded, linear operator on a Hilbert space is a set in $\mathbb{C}$ that encodes important information about the operator. In this survey paper, we first consider numerical ranges of matrices and discuss several…

For a given set of $n\times n$ matrices $\mathcal F$, we study the union of the $C$-numerical ranges of the matrices in the set $\mathcal F$, denoted by $W_C({\mathcal F})$. We obtain basic algebraic and topological properties of…

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…

Let $A=[A_{ij}]$ be an $n\times n$ operator matrix where each $A_{ij}$ is a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. With other numerical radius bounds via contraction operators, we show that $w(A) \leq…

It is shown that the numerical range of a linear operator operator in a Hilbert space is a (complete) $(1{+}\sqrt2)$-spectral set. The proof relies, among other things, in the behavior of the Cauchy transform of the conjugates of…

Let $A=\begin{bmatrix} A_{ij} \end{bmatrix}$ be an $n\times n$ operator matrix, where each $A_{ij}$ is a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space. Among other numerical radius bounds, we show that $w(A)\leq w(\hat{A})$, where…

A regular operator T on a Hilbert C^*-module is defined just like a closed operator on a Hilbert space, with the extra condition that the range of (I+T^*T) is dense. Semiregular operators are a slightly larger class of operators that may…

Let ${\mathcal H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on ${\mathcal H}$. For a positive integer $k$ less than the dimension of ${\mathcal H}$ and ${\mathbf A} =…

We introduce a new norm on the space of bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space, which generalizes the numerical radius norm, the usual operator norm and the modified Davis-Wielandt radius. We study basic properties of this…

The Euclidean operator radius of two bounded linear operators in the Hilbert $C^*$-module over $\A$ is given some precise bounds. Their relationship to recent findings in the literature that offer precise upper and lower bounds on the…

For a given unitary operator $U$ on a separable complex Hilbert space $\h$, we describe the set $\mathscr{C}_{c}(U)$ of all conjugations $C$ (antilinear, isometric, and involutive maps) on $\h$ for which $C U C = U$. As this set might be…

We show that whenever a contractive $k$-tuple $T$ on a finite dimensional space $H$ has a unitary dilation, then for any fixed degree $N$ there is a unitary $k$-tuple $U$ on a finite dimensional space so that $q(T) = P_H q(U) |_H$ for all…

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 $T$ be an adjointable operator between two Hilbert $C^*$-modules and $T^*$ be the adjoint operator of $T$. The polar decomposition of $T$ is characterized as $T=U(T^*T)^\frac12$ and $\mathcal{R}(U^*)=\overline{\mathcal{R}(T^*)}$, where…
