We study approximately orthogonality (in the sense of Dragomir) preserving and reversing operators. We show that for some orthogonality notations, an operator defined from a finite-dimensional Banach space to a normed linear space is…

We study symmetric points with respect to $(\rho_+)$-orthogonality, $(\rho_{-})$-orthogonality and $\rho$-orthogonality in the space $C(K, \mathbb{X}),$ where $K$ is a perfectly normal, compact space and $ \mathbb X$ is a Banach space. We…

We refine the well-known Blanco-Koldobsky-Turn\v{s}ek Theorem which states that a norm one linear operator defined on a Banach space is an isometry if and only if it preserves orthogonality at every element of the space. We improve the…

We investigate the local preservation of Birkhoff-James orthogonality at a point by a linear operator on a finite-dimensional Banach space and illustrate its importance in understanding the action of the operator in terms of the geometry of…

Let $\mathbb{X}$ be a Banach space and let $\mathbb{X}^*$ be the dual space of $\mathbb{X}.$ For $x,y \in \mathbb{X},$ $ x$ is said to be $T$-orthogonal to $y$ if $Tx(y) =0,$ where $T$ is a bounded linear operator from $\mathbb{X}$ to…

Let $E$ be a real Banach space. For $x,y \in E,$ we follow R.James in saying that $x$ is orthogonal to $y$ if $\|x+\alpha y\|\geq \|x\|$ for every $\alpha \in R$. We prove that every operator from $E$ into itself preserving orthogonality is…

We investigate $\rho$-orthogonality and its local symmetry in the space of bounded linear operators. A characterization of Hilbert space operators with symmetric numerical range is established in terms of $\rho$-orthogonality. Further, we…

An algebra of bounded linear operators on a Banach space is said to be {\em strongly compact} if its unit ball is precompact in the strong operator topology, and a bounded linear operator on a Banach space is said to be {\em strongly…

We study left symmetric and right symmetric elements in the space $\ell_{\infty}(K, \mathbb{X}) $ of bounded functions from a non-empty set $K$ to a Banach space $\mathbb{X}.$ We prove that a non-zero element $ f \in\ell_{\infty}(K,…

In this paper we study very smooth points of Banach spaces with special emphasis on spaces of operators. We show that when the space of compact operators is an $M$-ideal in the space of bounded operators, a very smooth operator $T$ attains…

We show that if an infinite-dimensional Banach space X has a symmetric basis then there exists a bounded, linear operator R : X --> X such that the set A = {x in X : ||R^n(x)|| --> infinity} is non-empty and nowhere dense in X. Moreover, if…

We study Birkhoff-James orthogonality of bounded linear operators on complex Banach spaces and obtain a complete characterization of the same. By means of introducing new definitions, we illustrate that it is possible in the complex case,…

It is proved that the resolvent norm of an operator with a compact resolvent on a Banach space $X$ cannot be constant on an open set if the underlying space or its dual is complex strictly convex. It is also shown that this is not the case…

A remarkable result by S. Artstein-Avidan and V. Milman states that, up to pre-composition with affine operators, addition of affine functionals, and multiplication by positive scalars, the only fully order preserving mapping acting on the…

We show examples of compact linear operators between Banach spaces which cannot be approximated by norm attaining operators. This is the negative answer to an open question posed in the 1970's. Actually, any strictly convex Banach space…
