Let $\mathbf{A}$ be a bounded self-adjoint operator on a separable Hilbert space $\mathfrak{H}$ and $\mathfrak{H}_0\subset\mathfrak{H}$ a closed invariant subspace of $\mathbf{A}$. Assuming that $\sup\spec(A_0)\leq \inf\spec(A_1)$, where…

In this note, we provide a family of $2\times 2$ tetrablock contractions that have tetrablock isometric dilation, but the corresponding fundamental operators do not commute. This answers a question raised by Bhattacharyya [Indiana Univ.…

Let $M$ be a compact manifold. and $D$ a Dirac type differential operator on $M$. Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra. Given a bundle $W$ of $A$-modules over $M$ (with connection), the operator $D$ can be twisted with this bundle. One can then use a…

Let $T\in\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ and $T=U|T|$ be its polar decomposition. We proved that (i) if $T$ is log-hyponormal or $p$-hyponormal and $U^n=U^\ast$ for some $n$, then $T$ is normal; (ii) if the spectrum of $U$ is contained in some…

The classical spectral theorem completely describes self-adjoint operators on finite dimensional inner product vector spaces as linear combinations of orthogonal projections onto pairwise orthogonal subspaces. We prove a similar theorem for…

This note deals with the operator $T^*T$, where $T$ is a densely defined operator on a complex Hilbert space. We reprove a recent result of Z. Sebesty\'en and Zs. Tarcsay [13]: If $T^*T$ and $TT^*$ are self-adjoint, then $T$ is closed. In…

Friedland (1981) showed that for a nonnegative square matrix A, the spectral radius r(e^D A) is a log-convex functional over the real diagonal matrices D. He showed that for fully indecomposable A, log r(e^D A) is strictly convex over D_1,…

A d-contraction is a d-tuple $(T_1,...,T_d)$ of mutually commuting operators acting on a common Hilbert space H such that $ \|T_1\xi_1+T_2\xi_2+... +T_d\xi_d\|^2\leq \|\xi_1\|^2+\|\xi_2\|^2+...+\|\xi_d\|^2 $ for all…

In this note, we find sufficient conditions for an operator with kernel of the form $A(x)B(y)-A(x)B(y)/(x-y)$ (which we call a Tracy-Widom type operator) to be the square of a Hankel operator. We consider two contexts: infinite matrices on…

In this paper we consider a twofold Ellis-Gohberg type inverse problem in an abstract *-algebraic setting. Under natural assumptions, necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution are obtained, and it is shown that in…

Applying the techniques resulting the existence of almost invariant half-spaces, similarity models $\wh T$ can be given for upper triangular operator-matrices $T= \left[\begin{matrix}A&C\\ 0&B\end{matrix}\right]$. The model $\wh T$ is also…

For $b\in H^\infty_1$, the closed unit ball of $H^\infty$, the de Branges-Rovnyak spaces $\mathcal{H}(b)$ is a Hilbert space contractively contained in the Hardy space $H^2$ that is invariant by the backward shift operator $S^*$. We…

In this paper, we discuss the Hyers-Ulam stability of closable (unbounded) operators with several interesting examples. We also present results pertaining to the Hyers-Ulam stability of the sum and product of closable operators to have the…

Recent work in Dynamical Sampling has been centered on characterizing frames obtained by the orbit of a vector under a bounded operator. We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for a pair of bounded commuting operators on a separable…

A bounded linear Hilbert space operator $S$ is said to be a $2$-isometry if the operator $S$ and its adjoint $S^*$ satisfy the relation $S^{*2}S^{2} - 2 S^{*}S + I = 0$. In this paper, we study Hilbert space operators having liftings or…

Let $H_1$, $H_2$ be complex Hilbert spaces. A bounded linear operator $T : H_1 \to H_2$ is said to be norm attaining if there exists a unit vector $x \in H_1$ such that $\|Tx\| = \|T\|$. If $T|_{M} : M \to H_2$ is norm attaining for every…
