For positive definite matrices $A$ and $B$, the Kubo-Ando matrix power mean is defined as $$ P_\mu(p, A, B) = A^{1/2}\left(\frac{1+(A^{-1/2}BA^{-1/2})^p}{2}\right )^{1/p} A^{1/2}\quad (p \ge 0). $$ In this paper, for $0\le p \le 1 \le q$,…
In this paper the authors seek to trace in an accessible fashion the rapid recent development of the theory of the matrix geometric mean in the cone of positive definite matrices up through the closely related operator geometric mean in the…
The generalization of the geometric mean of positive scalars to positive definite matrices has attracted considerable attention since the seminal work of Ando. The paper generalizes this framework of matrix means by proposing the definition…
In this paper we consider a one quartic operator on the $\mathbb{R}^2$ with positive coefficients. Positive fixed points for a quartic operator, were investigated. Theorems on number of positive fixed points of the quartic operator, are…
We consider the notion of real center of mass and total center of mass of a bounded linear operator relative to another bounded linear operator and explore their relation with cosine and total cosine of a bounded linear operator acting on a…
In the 1980s, Kubo and Ando introduced operator means on $\mathbb{P}$, the open convex cone of positive definite operators. One significant example is the weighted geometric mean $$ A \sharp_{t} B = A^{1/2} (A^{-1/2} B A^{-1/2})^{t}…
Suppose that $X,Y$ are positive random variable and $m$ a numerical (commutative) mean. We prove that the inequality ${\rm E} (m(X,Y)) \leq m({\rm E} (X), {\rm E} (Y))$ holds if and only if the mean is generated by a concave function. With…
Let $\sigma$ be an operator mean in the sense of Kubo and Ando. If the representation function $f$ of $\sigma$ satisfies $f_\sigma (t)^p\le f_\sigma(t^p) \text{ for all } p>1,$ then the operator mean is called a pmi mean. Our main interest…
We introduce the notion of regular operator mappings of several variables generalising the notion of spectral function. This setting is convenient for studying maps more general than what can be obtained from the functional calculus, and it…
In this paper, we study operator mean inequalities for the weighted arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means. We give a slight modification of Audenaert's result to show the relation between Kwong functions and operator monotone functions.…
Inspired by the spin geometry theorem, two operators are defined which measure angles in the quantum theory of geometry. One operator assigns a discrete angle to every pair of surfaces passing through a single vertex of a spin network. This…
For operators defined on locally convex spaces we define the notions of boundedness and ergodicity associated to an infinite matrix. Given two matrices $ A$ and $ B$, we study when $ A$-bounded operators are $ B$-ergodic. Using this…
In \cite{molnar} L.~Molnar studied the question of whether the L\"owner partial order on the positive cone of an operator algebra is determined by the norm of any arbitrary Kubo-Ando mean. He affirmatively answered the question for certain…
We give a survey, known and new results on the beingness of fixed points of the maximal operator in the more general settings of metric measure space. In particular, we prove that the fixed points of the uncentered one must be the constant…
We introduce and study a new class of nonlinear monotone operators acting in normal cones of real Banach spaces and possessing the property of strong concavity. We establish new constructive principles for the existence of nonzero fixed…
We discuss some results concerning fixed point equations in the setting of topological *-algebras of unbounded operators. In particular, an existence result is obtained for what we have called {\em weak $\tau$ strict contractions}, and some…
The dominant method for defining multivariate operator means is to express them as fix-points under a contraction with respect to the Thompson metric. Although this method is powerful, it crucially depends on monotonicity. We are developing…
We define a deformed kinetic energy operator for a discrete position space with a finite number of points. The structure may be either periodic or nonperiodic with well-defined end points. It is shown that for the nonperiodic case the…
We demonstrate new abstract characterizations for unital and non-unital operator spaces. We characterize unital operator spaces in terms of the cone of accretive operators (operators whose real part is positive). Defining the gauge of an…
A general fixed point theorem for isometries in terms of metric functionals is proved under the assumption of the existence of a conical bicombing. It is new even for isometries of Banach spaces as well as for non-locally compact…
