We show that a compact operator $A$ is a multiple of a positive semi-definite operator if and only if $$ \sigma(AB) \subseteq \overline{W(A)W(B)}, \quad\text{for all (rank one) operators $B$}. $$ An example of a normal operator is given to…
Given an infinite graph $G$ on countably many vertices, and a closed, infinite set $\Lambda$ of real numbers, we prove the existence of an unbounded self-adjoint operator whose graph is $G$ and whose spectrum is $\Lambda$.
The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we provide an optimal $\Omega(\sqrt{n})$ bits lower bound for any two-way protocol for the Vector in Subspace Communication Problem which is of bounded total rank. This result complements Raz's…
The $\omega$-limit set in a compact positively invariant region $R \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ has been identified for $n=1$, 2, and 3, with examples in each case. It has been shown that the $\omega$-limit set becomes more complex as $n$…
Two examples of spectral triples with non-integer dimension spectrum are considered. These triples involve commutative C*-algebras. The first example has complex dimension spectrum and trivial differential algebra. The other is a parameter…
In this paper, we define the angle of a bounded linear operator $A$ along an unbounded path emanating from the origin and use it to characterize range-kernel complementarity. In particular we show that if $0$ faces the unbounded component…
We give an alternative lower bound for the numerical radii of Hilbert space operators. As a by-product, we find conditions such that \begin{equation*} \omega\left(\left[\begin{array}{cc} 0 & R \\ S & 0 \end{array}\right]\right)=\frac{\Vert…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ have minimal Gaussian surface area among all sets satisfying $\Omega=-\Omega$ with fixed Gaussian volume. Let $A=A_{x}$ be the second fundamental form of $\partial\Omega$ at $x$, i.e. $A$ is the matrix of…
The numerical range of a bounded linear operator on a complex Banach space need not be convex unlike that on a Hilbert space. The aim of this paper is to study operators $T$ on $ \ell^2_p $ for which the numerical range is convex. We also…
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^3$ be a waveguide which is obtained by translating a cross-section in a constant direction along an unbounded spatial curve. Consider $-\Delta_{\Omega}^D$ the Dirichlet Laplacian operator in $\Omega$. Under the…
Given a subspace $U\subset\mathbb{C}[x_1,\dots,x_n]_d$ we consider the closure of the image of the rational map $\mathbb{P}^{n-1}\dashrightarrow\mathbb{P}^{\dim U-1}$ given by $U$. Its coordinate ring is isomorphic to $\bigoplus_{i\ge 0}…
We study the relation between the intrinsic and the spatial numerical ranges with the recently introduced "approximated" spatial numerical range. As main result, we show that the intrinsic numerical range always coincides with the convex…
The aim of this paper is to describe the closure of the numerical range of the product of two orthogonal projections in Hilbert space as a closed convex hull of some explicit ellipses parametrized by points in the spectrum. Several…
The numerical range of a matrix is studied geometrically via the cone of positive semidefinite matrices (or semidefinite cone for short). In particular it is shown that the feasible set of a two-dimensional linear matrix inequality (LMI),…

Fix any $\lambda\in\mathbb{C}$. We say that a set $S\subseteq\mathbb{C}$ is $\lambda$-$convex$ if, whenever $a$ and $b$ are in $S$, the point $(1-\lambda)a+\lambda b$ is also in $S$. If $S$ is also (topologically) closed, then we say that…
Let f be a unimodal map of the interval with critical point c. If the orbit of c is not dense then most points in lim{[0,1],f} have neighborhoods that are homeomorphic with the product of a Cantor set and an open arc. The points without…
We study the relation between the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator and its multidimensional numerical range. It turns out that the multidimensional numerical range is a convex set whose extreme points are sequences of eigenvalues of the…
We define the complete numerical radius norm for homomorphisms from any operator algebra into ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$, and show that this norm can be computed explicitly in terms of the completely bounded norm. This is used to show…
