We represent and classify pairs of commuting isometries $(V_1, V_2)$ acting on Hilbert spaces that satisfy the condition \[ [V_1^*, V_2] = \text{compact and normal}, \] where $[V_1^*, V_2] := V_1^* V_2 - V_2 V_1^*$ is the cross-commutator…

Every commuting set of normal matrices with entries in an AW*-algebra can be simultaneously diagonalized. To establish this, a dimension theory for properly infinite projections in AW*-algebras is developed. As a consequence, passing to…

We introduce a notion of joint spectrum for a tuple of compact operators on a separable Hilbert space and show that in many situations these operators commute if and only if the joint spectrum consists of countably many, locally finite,…

We present a matrix version of a known method of constructing common eigenvectors of two diagonalizable commuting matrices, thus enabling their simultaneous diagonalization. The matrices may have simple eigenvalues of multiplicity greater…

Normality of bounded and unbounded adjointable operators are discussed. Suppose $T$ is an adjointable operator between Hilbert C*-modules which has polar decomposition, then $T$ is normal if and only if there exists a unitary operator $…

Let $A$ and $B$ be two -non necessarily bounded- normal operators. We give new conditions making their product normal. We also generalize a result by Deutsch et al on normal products of matrices.

Let M_n be the collection of n x n complex matrices equipped with operator norm. Suppose U, V \in M_n are two unitary matrices, each possessing a gap larger than \Delta in their spectrum, which satisfy ||UV-VU|| \le \epsilon. Then it is…

We study the relation between approximate joint diagonalization of self-adjoint matrices and the norm of their commutator, and show that almost commuting self-adjoint matrices are almost jointly diagonalizable by a unitary matrix.

We show that a normal matrix $A$ with coefficient in $\mathbb C[[X]]$, $X=(X_1, \ldots, X_n)$, can be diagonalized, provided the discriminant $\Delta_A $ of its characteristic polynomial is a monomial times a unit. The proof is an…

In this paper, we provide a generalized version of the Voiculescu theorem for normal operators by showing that, in a von Neumann algebra with separable pre-dual and a faithful normal semifinite tracial weight $\tau$, a normal operator is an…

We study the commutation relations and normal ordering between families of operators on symmetric functions. These operators can be naturally defined by the operations of multiplication, Kronecker product, and their adjoints. As…

It is well known that a set of non-defect matrices can be simultaneously diagonalized if and only if the matrices commute. In the case of non-commuting matrices, the best that can be achieved is simultaneous block diagonalization. Here we…

Normal matrices, or matrices which commute with their adjoints, are of fundamental importance in pure and applied mathematics. In this paper, we study a natural functional on the space of square complex matrices whose global minimizers are…

This paper studies commuting matrices in max algebra and nonnegative linear algebra. Our starting point is the existence of a common eigenvector, which directly leads to max analogues of some classical results for complex matrices. We also…

In this paper we develop the generalised Schur theory offered in the recent paper by the second author in dimension one case, and apply it to obtain a new explicit parametrisation of torsion free rank one sheaves on projective irreducible…

The connection between the commutativity of a family of $n\times n$ matrices and the generalized joint numerical ranges is studied. For instance, it is shown that ${\cal F}$ is a family of mutually commuting normal matrices if and only if…

A cross matrix $X$ can have nonzero elements located only on the main diagonal and the anti-diagonal, so that the sparsity pattern has the shape of a cross. It is shown that $X$ can be factorized into products of matrices that are at most…

For any square-summable commuting family $(A_i)_{i\in I}$ of complex $n\times n$ matrices there is a normal commuting family $(B_i)_i$ no farther from it, in squared normalized $\ell^2$ distance, than the diameter of the numerical range of…

Let $K$ be a perfect field, $L$ be an extension field of $K$ and $A,B\in\mathcal{M}_n(K)$. If $A$ has $n$ distinct eigenvalues in $L$ that are explicitly known, then we can check if $A,B$ are simultaneously triangularizable over $L$. Now we…

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} =…
