For each adjointable idempotent $Q$ on a Hilbert $C^*$-module $H$, a specific projection $m(Q)$ called the matched projection of $Q$ was introduced recently due to the characterization of the minimum value among all the distances from…

For every idempotent $Q$ on a Hilbert space $H$, the matched projection $m(Q)$ is a well-established concept. This paper explores several applications of the matched projections. The first application addresses the distances from…

A term called the quasi-projection pair $(P,Q)$ was introduced recently by the authors, where $P$ is a projection and $Q$ is an idempotent on a Hilbert $C^*$-module $H$ satisfying $Q^*=(2P-I)Q(2P-I)$, in which $Q^*$ is the adjoint operator…

A quasi-projection pair consists of two operators $P$ and $Q$ acting on a Hilbert $C^*$-module $H$, where $P$ is a projection and $Q$ is an idempotent satisfying $Q^*=(2P-I)Q(2P-I)$, in which $Q^*$ denotes the adjoint operator of $Q$, and…

Motivated by two norm equations used to characterize the Friedrichs angle, this paper studies $C^*$-isomorphisms associated with two projections by introducing the matched triple and the semi-harmonious pair of projections. A triple…

Given an idempotent operator $E$ in a complex Hilbert space ${\mathcal H}$, one can associate to it two orthogonal projections: - The polar decomposition $2E-1=(2P-1)|2E-1|$ provides an orthogonal projection $P$. That the unitary part in…

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.…

This paper deals mainly with some aspects of the adjointable operators on Hilbert $C^*$-modules. A new tool called the generalized polar decomposition for each adjointable operator is introduced and clarified. As an application, the general…

A pair of Hilbert space linear operators $(V_1,V_2)$ is said to be $q$-commutative, for a unimodular complex number $q$, if $V_1V_2=qV_2V_1$. A concrete functional model for $q$-commutative pairs of isometries is obtained. The functional…

We consider the issue of describing all self-adjoint idempotents (projections) in $L^1(G)$ when $G$ is a unimodular locally compact group. The approach is to take advantage of known facts concerning subspaces of the Fourier-Stieltjes and…
