In [{\em The Numerical Range is a $(1 + \sqrt{2})$-Spectral Set}, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl. 38 (2017), pp.~649-655], Crouzeix and Palencia show that the numerical range of a square matrix or linear operator $A$ is a $(1 +…
Crouzeix and Palencia recently showed that the numerical range of a Hilbert-space operator is a $(1+\sqrt2)$-spectral set for the operator. One of the principal ingredients of their proof can be formulated as an abstract functional-analysis…
It is known that, if $\Omega$ $\subset$ C is a convex set containing the numerical range of an operator A, then $\Omega$ is a C $\Omega$ -spectral set for A with C $\Omega$ $\le$ 1+ $\sqrt$ 2. We improve this estimate in unbounded cases.
We extend the proof in [M.~Crouzeix and C.~Palencia, {\em The numerical range is a $(1 + \sqrt{2})$-spectral set}, SIAM Jour.~Matrix Anal.~Appl., 38 (2017), pp.~649-655] to show that other regions in the complex plane are $K$-spectral sets.…
Let $\Omega$ be an open convex domain of the complex plane. We study constants K such that $\Omega$ is K-spectral or complete K-spectral for each continuous linear Hilbert space operator with numerical range included in $\Omega$. Several…
In an attempt to progress towards proving the conjecture the numerical range W (A) is a 2--spectral set for the matrix A, we propose a study of various constants. We review some partial results, many problems are still open. We describe our…
We thoroughly analyse the double-layer potential's role in approaches to spectral sets in the spirit of Delyon--Delyon, Crouzeix and Crouzeix--Palencia. While the potential is well-studied, we aim to clarify on several of its aspects in…
This paper investigates new properties of $q$-numerical ranges for compact normal operators and establishes refined upper bounds for the $q$-numerical radius of Hilbert space operators. We first prove that for a compact normal operator $T$…
Given a compact convex planar domain $\Omega$ with non-empty interior, the classical Neumann's configuration constant $c_{\mathbb{R}}(\Omega)$ is the norm of the Neumann-Poincar\'e operator $K_\Omega$ acting on the space of continuous…
A result by Crouzeix and Palencia states that the spectral norm of a matrix function $f(A)$ is bounded by $K = 1+\sqrt{2}$ times the maximum of $f$ on $W(A)$, the numerical range of $A$. The purpose of this work is to point out that this…
A new concept of a deformed numerical range $W^\rho(T)$ is introduced. Here $T$ is a bounded linear operator or a matrix and $ \rho \in[1,+\infty)$ is a parameter. Each $W^\rho(T)$ is a closed convex set that contains the spectrum of $T$.…
We study the spectral gap behavior of an operator obtained by summing a random permutation $M$ and a deterministic bistochastic matrix $Q$. We are interested in the asymptotic in terms of dimension. In the case where $(M,Q)$ are…
This paper introduces and investigates the concept of the $q$-numerical range for tuples of bounded linear operators in Hilbert spaces. We establish various inequalities concerning the $q$-numerical radius associated with these operator…
Suppose that c is an operator on a Hilbert Space H such that the von Neumann algebra N generated by c is finite. Suppose that tau is a faithful normal tracial state on N. Let B denote the spectal scale of c with respect to tau. We show that…
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…
Suppose that c is a linear operator acting on an n-dimensional complex Hilbert Space H, and let tau denote the normalized trace on B(H). Set b_1 = (c+c*)/2 and b_2 = (c-c*)/2i, and write B for the the spectral scale of {b_1, b_2} with…
It is shown that the numerical range of a linear operator operator in a Hilbert space is a (complete) $(1{+}\sqrt2)$-spectral set. The proof relies, among other things, in the behavior of the Cauchy transform of the conjugates of…
Which convex subsets of the complex plane are the numerical range W(A of some matrix A? This paper gives a precise characterization of these sets. In addition to this we show that for any A there exists a symmetric matrix B of the same size…
The numerical range in the quaternionic setting is, in general, a non convex subset of the quaternions. The essential numerical range is a refinement of the numerical range that only keeps the elements that have, in a certain sense,…
