Algebras generated by strictly positive matrices are described up to similarity, including the commutative, simple, and semisimple cases. We provide sufficient conditions for some block diagonal matrix algebras to be generated by a set of…
For any positive invertible matrix $A$ and any normal matrix $B$ in $M_{n}({\Bbb C})$, we investigate whether the inequality $ ||A\sharp (B^{*}A^{-1}B)||\geq ||B|| $ is true or not, where $\sharp$ denotes the geometric mean and $||\cdot||$…
We introduce and study the class of positive weakly (q,r)-dominated multilinear operators between Banach lattices. This notion extends classical domination and summability concepts to the positive multilinear setting and generates a new…
We explore the asymptotic convergence and nonasymptotic maximal inequalities of supermartingales and backward submartingales in the space of positive semidefinite matrices. These are natural matrix analogs of scalar nonnegative…
We prove that, in a large class of Banach lattices, the fixed space of each commuting family of positive linear contractions is a lattice subspace. As consequences, new cyclicity results for the peripheral point spectra of positive…
Given a Banach space~$X$ with an unconditional basis, we consider the following question: does the identity on~$X$ factor through every operator on~$X$ with large diagonal relative to the unconditional basis? We show that on Gowers'…
For linear operators $L, T$ and nonlinear maps $P$, we describe classes of simple maps $F = I - P T$, $F = L - P$ between Banach and Hilbert spaces, for which no point has more than two preimages. The classes encompass known examples…
Copositive and completely positive matrices play an increasingly important role in Applied Mathematics, namely as a key concept for approximating NP-hard optimization problems. The cone of copositive matrices of a given order and the cone…
We link the study of positive quantum maps, block positive operators, and entanglement witnesses with problems related to multivariate polynomials. For instance, we show how indecomposable block positive operators relate to biquadratic…
Weighted $L^p-L^r$ inequalities with arbitrary measurable non-negative weights for positive quasilinear integral operators with Oinarov's kernel on the semiaxis are characterized. Application to the boundedness of maximal operator in the…
In this paper, we establish the quantitative mean ergodic theorems for two subclasses of power bounded operators on a fixed noncommutative $L_p$-space with $1<p<\infty$, which mainly concerns power bounded invertible operators and Lamperti…
If $p\in [1,+\infty]$ and $T$ is a linear operator with $p$-nuclear adjoint from a Banach space $ X$ to a Banach space $Y$ then if one of the spaces $X^*$ or $Y^{***}$ has the approximation property, then $T$ belongs to the ideal $N^p$ of…
We study matrices whose entries are free or exchangeable noncommutative elements in some tracial $W^*$-probability space. More precisely, we consider operator-valued Wigner and Wishart matrices and prove quantitative convergence to…
We propose and discuss how basic notions (quadratic modules, positive elements, semialgebraic sets, Archimedean orderings) and results (Positivstellensaetze) from real algebraic geometry can be generalized to noncommutative $*$-algebras. A…
The main result of the note describes certain optimal-score partitions, which can be interpreted as optimal resource allocations. This result is based on the fact that any nonnegative square matrix whose column sums are the same as the…
The aim of this note is to show that certain number theoretic inequalities due to Nesbitt and Shapiro have noncommutative counterparts involving positive definite matrices.
Semipositive matrices (matrices that map at least one nonnegative vector to a positive vector) and minimally semipositive matrices (semipositive matrices whose no column-deleted submatrix is semipositive) are well studied in matrix theory.…
We prove that a nonzero idempotent is zero-diagonal if and only if it is not a Hilbert-Schmidt perturbation of a projection, along with other useful equivalences. Zero-diagonal operators are those whose diagonal entries are identically zero…
We study properties of transfer matrices in the sl(N) spin chain models. The transfer matrices with an infinite dimensional auxiliary space are factorized into the product of N commuting Baxter Q-operators. We consider the transfer matrices…
We study the relationship between exact interpolation spaces for positive, linear operators, for order preserving, Lipschitz continuous operators, and for positive Gagliardo-Peetre operators, and exact partially $K$-monotone spaces in…
