Let $B(H)$ be the algebra of all bounded operators on a Hilbert space $H$. Let $T=V|T|$ be the polar decomposition of an operator $T\in B(H)$. The mean transform of $T$ is defined by $M(T)=\frac{T+|T|V}{2}$. In this paper, we discuss…

A semiregular operator on a Hilbert C^*-module, or equivalently, on the C^*-algebra of `compact' operators on it, is a closable densely defined operator whose adjoint is also densely defined. It is shown that for operators on extensions of…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for real sequences to be the spectra of selfadjoint extensions of an entire operator whose domain may be non-dense. For this spectral characterization we use de Branges space techniques and a…

We prove that for a right linear bounded normal operator on a quaternionic Hilbert space (quaternionic bounded normal operator) the norm and the numerical radius are equal. As a consequence of this result we give a new proof of the known…

Classical spectral theory gives a complete description of a single normal operator, but it fails for noncommuting operators, where no canonical joint spectrum or simultaneous diagonalization exists. Existing approaches provide only partial…

We give a characterisation of the spectral properties of linear differential operators with constant coefficients, acting on functions defined on a bounded interval, and determined by general linear boundary conditions. The boundary…

This paper explores operators with countable, continuous, and hybrid spectra, focusing on both finite dimensional and infinite dimensional cases, particularly in non-Hermitian systems. For finite dimensional operators, a novel concept of…

Fundamental properties of unbounded composition operators in $L^2$-spaces are studied. Characterizations of normal and quasinormal composition operators are provided. Formally normal composition operators are shown to be normal. Composition…

We prove that a bounded linear Hilbert space operator has the unit circle in its essential approximate point spectrum if and only if it admits an orbit satisfying certain orthogonality and almost-orthogonality relations. This result is…

We solve a number of questions pertaining to the dynamics of linear operators on Hilbert spaces, sometimes by using Baire category arguments and sometimes by constructing explicit examples. In particular, we prove the following results. - A…

Orthonormal systems in commutative $L_2$ spaces can be used to classify Banach spaces. When the system is complete and satisfies certain norm condition the unconditionality with respect to the system characterizes Hilbert spaces. As a…

Let $T:H_1\rightarrow H_2$ be a bounded linear operator defined between complex Hilbert spaces $H_1$ and $H_2$. We say $T$ to be \textit{minimum attaining} if there exists a unit vector $x\in H_1$ such that $\|Tx\|=m(T)$, where…

Let $f$ be a symmetric norm on ${\mathbb R}^n$ and let ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$ be the set of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space ${\mathcal H}$ of dimension at least $n$. Define a norm on ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$ by…

An operator $T$ acting on a Hilbert space is called $(\alpha ,\beta)$-normal ($0\leq \alpha \leq 1\leq \beta $) if \begin{equation*} \alpha ^{2}T^{\ast }T\leq TT^{\ast}\leq \beta ^{2}T^{\ast}T. \end{equation*} In this paper we establish…

In this short article, we mainly prove that, for any spectral operator $A$ of type $m$ on a complex Hilbert space, if a bounded operator $B$ lies in the collection of bounded linear operators that are in the $k$-centralizer of every bounded…

Motivated by a putative model of black holes as quantum objects we consider what types of operators would have a corresponding spectrum. We find that there are indeed such operators, but of a rather unusual types, and for which the wave…

This is an introduction to the algebras $A\subset B(H)$ that the linear operators $T:H\to H$ can form, once a complex Hilbert space $H$ is given. Motivated by quantum mechanics, we are mainly interested in the von Neumann algebras, which…

If $\mathcal H$ is a Hilbert space, $\mathcal S \subseteq \mathcal H$ is a closed subspace of $\mathcal H$, and $A $ is a positive bounded linear operator on $\mathcal H$, the spectral shorted operator $\rho(\mathcal S, A)$ is defined as…

We introduce a notion of $(S+N)$-triangular operators in the Hilbert space using some basic ideas from triangular representation theory. Our notion generalizes the well-known notion of the spectral operators so that many properties of the…

We show that positive absolutely norm attaining operators can be characterized by a simple property of their spectra. This result clarifies and simplifies a result of Ramesh. As an application we characterize weighted shift operators which…
