Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a separable von Neumann algebra with center $\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{M})$. An operator $T$ in $\mathcal{M}$ is called irreducible if the von Neumann algebra $W^*(T)$ generated by $T$ has trivial relative commutant, i.e.,…
Let $\Gamma < G$ be a discrete subgroup of a locally compact unimodular group $G$. Let $m\in C_b(G)$ be a $p$-multiplier on $G$ with $1 \leq p < \infty$ and let $T_{m}: L_p(\widehat{G}) \rightarrow L_p(\widehat{G})$ be the corresponding…
This paper is devoted to derivations on the algebra $S_0(M, \tau)$ of all $\tau$-compact operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra $M$ and a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau.$ The main result asserts that every…
In [10], Halmos proved an interesting result that the set of irreducible operators is dense in $\mathcal B(\mathcal H)$ in the sense of Hilbert-Schmidt approximation. In a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal M$ with separable predual, an operator…
It is proved that given $-1/2<s<1/2$, for any $f\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$, there is a unique $u\in \widehat{H}^{|s|}(\mathbb{R})$ such that $$ f=\boldsymbol{D}^{-s}u+\boldsymbol{D}^{s*}u\,, $$ where $\boldsymbol{D}^{-s}, \boldsymbol{D}^{s*}$ are…
For each $f:[0,\infty)\to\Com$ formally consider its co-Poisson or M\"{u}ntz transform $g(x)=\sum_{n\geq 1}f(nx)-\frac{1}{x}\int_0^\infty f(t)dt$. For certain $f$'s with both $f, g \in L_2(0,\infty)$ it is true that the Riemann hypothesis…
Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ equipped with a faithful normal strictly semifinite weight $\varphi$, we develop a notion of Murray-von Neumann dimension over $(M,\varphi)$ that is defined for modules over the basic construction associated…
Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra. It is shown that every absolutely summing operator from $A$ into $\ell_2$ factors through a Hilbert space operator that belongs to the 4-Schatten- von Neumann class. We also provide finite dimensinal examples…
Given a bounded operator $Q$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, a pair of bounded operators $(T_1, T_2)$ on $\mathcal{H}$ is said to be $Q$-commuting if one of the following holds: \[ T_1T_2=QT_2T_1 \text{ or }T_1T_2=T_2QT_1 \text{ or…
The theory of abstract Friedrichs operators was introduced some fifteen years ago with the aim of providing a more comprehensive framework for the study of positive symmetric systems of first-order partial differential equations, nowadays…
Relativizing an idea from multiplicity theory, we say that an element x of a von Neumann algebra M is n-divisible if (W*(x)' cap M) unitally contains a factor of type I_n. We decide the density of the n-divisible operators, for various n,…
Let $J_n$ be the Jordan block of size $n$ with all eigen values zero. Arveson introduced the notion of the matricial range of an operator in his remarkable article called Subalgebras of $C^*$-algebras II (Acta Math, 128, 1972) and…
Let X be a UMD space with type t and cotype q, and let T be a Fourier multiplier operator with a scalar-valued symbol m. If the Mihlin multiplier estimate holds for all partial derivatives of m up to the order n/max(t,q')+1, then T is…
Let $M$ be a finite von Neumann algebra (resp. a type II$_{1}$ factor) and let $N\subset M$ be a II$_{1}$ factor (resp. $N\subset M$ have an atomic part). We prove that the inclusion $N\subset M$ is amenable implies the identity map on $M$…
The Fourier transform is typically seen as closely related to the additive group of real numbers, its characters and its Haar measure. In this paper, we propose an alternative viewpoint; the Fourier transform can be uniquely characterized…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be an atomless semifinite von Neumann algebra (or an atomic von Neumann algebra with all atoms having the same trace) acting on a (not necessarily separable) Hilbert space $H$ equipped with a semifinite faithful normal…
The general affine group $G_n$ sits at the intersection of harmonic analysis on solvable groups and the geometry of negatively curved symmetric spaces. In this work, we characterize the $L^p$-behavior of maximal operators associated with…
For any bounded, regulated function $m: [0,\infty) \to \mathbb{C}$, consider the family of operators $\{ T_R \}$ on the sphere $S^d$ such that $T_R f = m(k/R) f$ for any spherical harmonic $f$ of degree $k$. We completely characterize the…
