An operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ is called expansive, if $\|Tx\|\geq \|x\|$ ($x\in\mathcal H$). Expansive operators $T$ quasisimilar to the unilateral shift $S_N$ of finite multiplicity $N$ are studied. It is proved that…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex, separable Hilbert space (of finite or infinite dimension), and let $\mathcal{U}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the group of unitary operators on $\mathcal{H}$. A symmetry is, by definition, a unitary operator $J$ with…
The paper is devoted to a development of the theory of self-adjoint operators in Krein spaces (J-self-adjoint operators) involving some additional properties arising from the existence of C-symmetries. The main attention is paid to the…
Using the unbounded picture of analytical K-homology, we associate a well-defined K-homology class to an unbounded symmetric operator satisfying certain mild technical conditions. We also establish an ``addition formula'' for the Dirac…
It has been shown that a Hamiltonian with an unbroken $\cP\cT$ symmetry also possesses a hidden symmetry that is represented by the linear operator $\cC$. This symmetry operator $\cC$ guarantees that the Hamiltonian acts on a Hilbert space…
We revise Krein's extension theory of positive symmetric operators. Our approach using factorization through an auxiliary Hilbert space has several advantages: it can be applied to non-densely defined transformations and it works in both…
Closed operators in Hilbert space defined by a non-self-adjoint resolution of the identity $\{X(\lambda)\}_{\lambda\in {\mb R}}$, whose adjoints constitute also a resolution of the identity, are studied . In particular, it is shown that a…
Truncated Toeplitz operators are C--symmetric with respect to the canonical conjugation given on an appropriate model space. However, by considering only one conjugation one cannot characterize truncated Toeplitz operators. It will be…
We prove a new criterion for the essential self-adjointness of pseudodifferential operators that does not involve ellipticity-type assumptions. For example, we show that self-adjointness holds in case the symbol is $C^{2d+3}$ with…
We prove a differential analogue of Hilbert's irreducibility theorem. Let $\mathcal{L}$ be a linear differential operator with coefficients in $C(\mathbb{X})(x)$ that is irreducible over $\overline{C(\mathbb{X})}(x)$, where $\mathbb{X}$ is…
Given an essential ideal $J\subset A$ of a C*-algebra $A$, and a Hilbert C*-module $M$ over $A$, we place $M$ between two other Hilbert C*-modules over $A$, $M_J\subset M\subset M^J$, in such a way that each submodule here is thick, i.e.…
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…
If a differential operator $D$ on a smooth Hermitian vector bundle $S$ over a compact manifold $M$ is symmetric, it is essentially self-adjoint and so admits the use of functional calculus. If $D$ is also elliptic, then the Hilbert space of…
Let $A$ and $A_{1}$ are unbounded selfadjoint operators in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Following \cite{AK} we call $A_{1}$ a \textit{singular} perturbation of $A$ if $A$ and $A_{1}$ have different domains…
We apply G-convergence theory to study the asymptotic of the eigenvalue problems of positive definite bounded self-adjoint $h$-dependent operators as $h\to\infty$. Two operators are considered; a second order elliptic operator and a general…
The purpose of the article is to generalize the concept of approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality, in the semi-Hilbertian structure. Given a positive operator $ A $ on a Hilbert space $ \mathbb{H}, $ we define $ (\epsilon,A)- $approximate…
We compute the deficiency spaces of operators of the form $H_A{\hat{\otimes}} I + I{\hat{\otimes}} H_B$, for symmetric $H_A$ and self-adjoint $H_B$. This enables us to construct self-adjoint extensions (if they exist) by means of von…
Let $H_1$ and $H_2$ be selfadjoint operators or relations (multivalued operators) acting on a separable Hilbert space and assume that the inequality $H_1 \leq H_2$ holds. Then the validity of the inequalities $-H_1^{-1} \leq -H_2^{-1}$ and…
We study self-adjoint semigroups of partial isometries on a Hilbert space. These semigroups coincide precisely with faithful representations of abstract inverse semigroups. Groups of unitary operators are specialized examples of…
Let $\cal M$ be a Banach C*-module over a C*-algebra $A$ carrying two $A$-valued inner products $< .,. >_1$, $<.,. >_2$ which induce equivalent to the given one norms on $\cal M$. Then the appropriate unital C*-algebras of adjointable…
