For a complex Banach space $\mathbb X$, we prove that $\mathbb X$ is a Hilbert space if and only if every strict contraction $T$ on $\mathbb X$ dilates to an isometry if and only if for every strict contraction $T$ on $\mathbb X$ the…

In this paper we extend a result of Semrl stating that every 2-local automorphism of the full operator algebra on a separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space is an automorphism. In fact, besides separable Hilbert spaces, we obtain the…

A Banach space $X$ has the $2$-summing property if the norm of every linear operator from $X$ to a Hilbert space is equal to the $2$-summing norm of the operator. Up to a point, the theory of spaces which have this property is independent…

Let $X,Y$ be normal bounded operators on a Hilbert space such that $e^X=e^Y$. If the spectra of $X$ and $Y$ are contained in the strip $\s$ of the complex plane defined by $|\Im(z)|\leq \pi$, we show that $|X|=|Y|$. If $Y$ is only assumed…

A closed subspace of a Banach space $\cX$ is almost-invariant for a collection $\cS$ of bounded linear operators on $\cX$ if for each $T \in \cS$ there exists a finite-dimensional subspace $\cF_T$ of $\cX$ such that $T \cY \subseteq \cY +…

The set of normalizers between von Neumann (or, more generally, reflexive) algebras A and B, (that is, the set of all operators x such that xAx* is a subset of B and x*Bx is a subset of A) possesses `local linear structure': it is a union…

In this paper, we study geometric properties of the set of group invariant continuous linear operators between Banach spaces. In particular, we present group invariant versions of the Hahn-Banach separation theorems and elementary…

The theory of M-ideals and multiplier mappings of Banach spaces naturally generalizes to left (or right) M-ideals and multiplier mappings of operator spaces. These subspaces and mappings are intrinsically characterized in terms of the…

A Banach space operator $A\in B({\cal{X}})$ is polaroid, $A\in {\cal{P}}$, if the isolated points of the spectrum $\sigma(A)$ are poles of the operator; $A$ is hereditarily polaroid, $A\in{\cal{HP}}$, if every restriction of $A$ to a closed…

Is shown that any separable superreflexive Banach space X may be isometrically embedded in a separable superreflexive Banach space Z=Z(X) (which, in addition, is of the same type and cotype as X) such that its conjugate admits a continuous…

A net $(x_\alpha)$ in a Banach lattice $X$ is said to un-converge to a vector $x$ if $\bigl\lVert\lvert x_\alpha-x\rvert\wedge u\bigr\rVert\to 0$ for every $u\in X_+$. In this paper, we investigate un-topology, i.e., the topology that…

We give a self-contained proof of a recently established $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$-valued version of Jaffards Lemma. That is, we show that the Jaffard algebra of $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$-valued matrices, whose operator norms of their…

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the generalized $\star$-Sylvester matrix equation, $AXB + CX^\star D = E$, to have exactly one solution for any right-hand side E. These conditions are given for arbitrary coefficient…

In this note we collect some significant contributions on metric invariants for complex Banach algebras and Jordan--Banach algebras established during the last fifteen years. This note is mainly expository, but it also contains complete…

A bounded linear operator $T$ on a Banach space $X$ is called subspace-hypercyclic if there is a subspace $M \subsetneq X$ and a vector $x \in X$ such that $orb{(x,T)} \cap M$ is dense in $M$. We show that every Banach space supports…

In this paper, a sufficient condition for the existence of hyperinvariant subspace of compact perturbations of multiplication operators on some Banach spaces is presented. An interpretation of this result for compact perturbations of normal…

In topological equivalence, a bounded linear operator between Banach spaces - we focus on the case of Hilbert spaces - is viewed as only acting linearly and continuously between them qua different spaces with the structure of linear…

We provide sufficient conditions on a Banach space $X$ in order that there exist norm attaining operators of rank at least two from $X$ into any Banach space of dimension at least two. For example, a rather weak such condition is the…

Several characterizations of EP and normal Moore-Penrose invertible Banach algebra elements will be considered. The Banach space operator case will be also studied. The results of the present article will extend well known facts obtained in…

We consider norms on a complex separable Hilbert space such that $\langle a\xi,\xi\rangle\leq\|\xi\|^2\leq\langle b\xi,\xi\rangle$ for positive invertible operators $a$ and $b$ that differ by an operator in the Schatten class. We prove that…
