We study the problem of when the continuous linear image of a fixed closed convex set $X \subset\mathbb{R}^n$ is closed. Specifically, we improve the main results in the papers \cite{Borwein2009, Borwein2010} by showing that for all, except…

In this article, we give a representation of bounded complex linear operators which preserve idempotent elements on the Fourier algebra of a locally compact group. When such an operator is moreover positive or contractive, we show that the…

We show that under natural and quite general assumptions, a large part of a matrix for a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space can be preassigned. The result is obtained in a more general setting of operator tuples leading to…
