This paper is mainly concerned with proving $\sigma(AB)=\sigma(BA)$ for two linear and non necessarily bounded operators $A$ and $B$. The main tool is left and right invertibility of bounded and unbounded operators.

The primary purpose of this paper is to investigate the question of invertibility of the sum of operators. The setting is bounded and unbounded linear operators. Some interesting examples and consequences are given. As an illustrative…

Strongly irreducible operators can be considered as building blocks for bounded linear operators on complex separable Hilbert spaces. Many bounded linear operators can be written as direct sums of at most countably many strongly irreducible…

Sz.-Nagy's famous theorem states that a bounded operator $T$ which acts on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is similar to a unitary operator if and only if $T$ is invertible and both $T$ and $T^{-1}$ are power bounded. There is an…

Let $A$ be a self-adjoint operator in a separable Hilbert space. Suppose that the spectrum of $A$ is formed of two isolated components $\sigma_0$ and $\sigma_1$ such that the set $\sigma_0$ lies in a finite gap of the set $\sigma_1$. Assume…

Each bounded operator T on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H is a sum of three operators that are similar to positive operators; two such operators are sufficient if T is not a compact perturbation of a scalar. The spectra of L\"uders…

For a quasinilpotent operator $T$ on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, Douglas and Yang define $k_x=\limsup\limits_{\lambda\rightarrow 0}\frac{\ln\|(\lambda-T)^{-1}x\|}{\ln\|(\lambda-T)^{-1}\|}$ for each nonzero vector $x$, and call…

Let $\sigma(A)$, $\rho(A)$ and $r(A)$ denote the spectrum, spectral radius and numerical radius of a bounded linear operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $H$, respectively. We show that a linear operator $A$ satisfying $$\rho(AB)\le r(A)r(B)…

Our main result is a theorem saying that a bounded operator $A$ on a Hilbert space belongs to a certain set associated with its self-commutator $[A^*,A]$, provided that $A-zI$ can be approximated by invertible operators for all complex…

We provide several perturbation theorems regarding closable operators on a real or complex Hilbert space. In particular we extend some classical results due to Hess--Kato, Kato--Rellich and W\"ust. Our approach involves ranges of matrix…

Let $T:D(T)\rightarrow H_2$ be a densely defined closed operator with domain $D(T)\subset H_1$. We say $T$ to be absolutely minimum attaining if for every closed subspace $M$ of $H_1$, the restriction operator $T|_M:D(T)\cap M\rightarrow…

An operator $T $ from a vector lattice $E$ into a normed lattice $F$ is called unbounded $\sigma$-order-to-norm continuous whenever $x_{n}\xrightarrow{uo}0$ implies $\| Tx_{n}\|\rightarrow 0$, for each sequence $(x_{n})_n\subseteq E$. For a…

In this paper we study operators originated from semi-B-Fredholm theory and as a consequence we get some results regarding boundaries and connected hulls of the corresponding spectra. In particular, we prove that a bounded linear operator…

Let $H_1,H_2$ be complex Hilbert spaces and $T$ be a densely defined closed linear operator (not necessarily bounded). It is proved that for each $\epsilon>0$, there exists a bounded operator $S$ with $\|S\|\leq \epsilon$ such that $T+S$ is…
