Let $T$ be a rooted, countable infinite tree without terminal vertices. In the present paper, we characterize the spectra, self-adjointness and positivity of Toeplitz operators on the spaces of $p$-summable functions on $T$. Moreover, we…
A bounded linear operator is said to be nice if its adjoint preserves extreme points of the dual unit ball. Motivated by a description due to Labuschagne and Mascioni \cite{LM} of such maps for the space of compact operators on a Hilbert…
We define nonselfadjoint operator algebras with generators $L_{e_1},..., L_{e_n}, L_{f_1},...,L_{f_m}$ subject to the unitary commutation relations of the form \[ L_{e_i}L_{f_j} = \sum_{k,l} u_{i,j,k,l} L_{f_l}L_{e_k}\] where $u=…
We introduce a noncommutative analogue of the absolute value of a regular operator acting on a noncommutative $\mathrm{L}^p$-space. We equally prove that two classical operator norms, the regular norm and the decomposable norm are…
In this work we provide a characterization of distinct type of (linear and non-linear) maps between Banach spaces in terms of the differentiability of certain class of Lipschitz functions. Our results are stated in an abstract bornological…
In this paper, we give conditions forcing nilpotent matrices (and bounded linear operators in general) to be null or equivalently to be normal. Therefore, a non-zero operator having e.g. a positive real part is never nilpotent. The case of…
We consider the class of non-Hermitian operators represented by infinite tridiagonal matrices, selfadjoint in an indefinite inner product space with one negative square. We approximate them with their finite truncations. Both infinite and…
Inspired by some problems in Quantum Information Theory, we present some results concerning decompositions of positive operators acting on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces. We focus on decompositions by families having geometrical symmetry…
It is well-known that the Sobolev spaces $W^{k,p}(\mathbb R^d)$ are vector lattices with respect to the pointwise almost everywhere order if $k \in \{0,1\}$, but not if $k \ge 2$. In this note, we consider negative $k$ and show that the…
For a positive and invertible linear operator $T$ acting on a $C^*$-algebra, we give necessary and sufficient criteria for the inverse operator $T^{-1}$ to be positive, too. Moreover, a simple counterexample shows that $T^{-1}$ need not be…
We define positive Toeplitz operators between weighted harmonic Bloch spaces $b^\infty_\alpha$ on the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$ for the full range of parameter $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$. We give characterizations of bounded and compact…
In this paper we investigate Hirano invertibility of anti-triangular matrix over a Banach algebra. Let $a\in {\mathcal A}^H, b\in {\mathcal A}^{sD}.$ If $b^Da=0, bab^{\pi}=0,$ we prove that $\begin{pmatrix} a&1\\ b&0 \end{pmatrix}\in…
Our purpose in this note is to investigate the order properties of positive operators from a locally convex space into its conjugate dual. We introduce a natural generalization of the Busch-Gudder strength function and we prove Kadison's…
In this paper we consider the decomposition of positive semidefinite matrices as a sum of rank one matrices. We introduce and investigate the properties of various measures of optimality of such decompositions. For some classes of positive…
In the setting of real square matrices, it is known that, if $A$ is a singular irreducible $M$-matrix, then the only nonnegative vector that belongs to the range space of $A$ is the zero vector. In this paper, we prove an analogue of this…
We define spatial $L^p$ AF algebras for $p \in [1, \infty) \setminus \{ 2 \}$, and prove the following analog of the Elliott AF algebra classification theorem. If $A$ and $B$ are spatial $L^p$ AF algebras, then the following are equivalent:…
Commutative analogues of Clifford algebras are algebras defined in the same way as Clifford algebras except that their generators commute with each other, in contrast to Clifford algebras in which the generators anticommute. In this paper,…
We classify all Rota-Baxter operators of nonzero weight on the matrix algebra of order three over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero which are not arisen from the decompositions of the entire algebra into a direct vector…
The first representation theorem establishes a correspondence between positive, self-adjoint operators and closed, positive forms on Hilbert spaces. The aim of this paper is to show that some of the results remain true if the underlying…
A linear polyomial non-negative on the non-negativity domain of finitely many linear polynomials can be expressed as their non-negative linear combination. Recently, under several additional assumptions, Helton, Klep, and McCullough…
