Suppose $\Cal J$ is a two-sided quasi-Banach ideal of compact operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $\Cal H$. We show that an operator $T\in\Cal J$ can be expressed as finite linear combination of commutators $[A,B]$…
We show that there are $2^{2^{\aleph_0}}$ different closed ideals in the Banach algebra $L(L_p(0,1))$, $1<p\not= 2<\infty$. This solves a problem in A. Pietsch's 1978 book "Operator Ideals". The proof is quite different from other methods…
In this work we study Schatten-von Neumann classes of tensor products of invariant operators on Hilbert spaces. In the first part we first deduce some spectral properties for tensors of anharmonic oscillators thanks to the knowledge on…
We investigate the quotient algebra $\mathfrak{A}_X^{\mathcal I}:=\mathcal I(X)/\overline{\mathcal F(X)}^{||\cdot||_{\mathcal I}}$ for Banach operator ideals $\mathcal I$ contained in the ideal of the compact operators, where $X$ is a…
In the canonical approach to Lorentzian Quantum General Relativity in four spacetime dimensions an important step forward has been made by Ashtekar, Isham and Lewandowski some eight years ago through the introduction of an appropriate…
We use the notion of $\A$-compact sets, which are determined by a Banach operator ideal $\A$, to show that most classic results of certain approximation properties and several Banach operator ideals can be systematically studied under this…
In the framework of operator theory, we investigate a close Lie theoretic relationship between all operator ideals and certain classical groups of invertible operators that can be described as the solution sets of certain algebraic…
The numerical range of a bounded linear operator on a complex Banach space need not be convex unlike that on a Hilbert space. The aim of this paper is to study operators $T$ on $ \ell^2_p $ for which the numerical range is convex. We also…
If quantum gravity respects the principles of quantum mechanics, suitably generalized, it may be that a more viable approach to the theory is through identifying the relevant quantum structures rather than by quantizing classical spacetime.…
Some consequences of promoting the object of noncommutativity ${\mathbf \theta}^{ij}$ to an operator in Hilbert space are explored. Consequently, a consistent algebra involving the enlarged set of canonical operators is obtained, which…
We construct the algebra of operators acting on the Hilbert spaces of Quantum Mechanics for systems of $N$ identical particles from the field operators acting in the Fock space of Quantum Field Theory by providing the explicit relation…
This article introduces classes of normal and unitary operators on smooth Banach spaces, providing extensions of the classical notions of normal and unitary operators from Hilbert spaces to the smooth Banach space setting. The proposed…
The paper deals with continuous homomorphisms $S \ni s \mapsto T_s \in L(E)$ of amenable semigroups $S$ into the algebra $L(E)$ of all bounded linear operators on a Banach space $E$. For a closed linear subspace $F$ of $E$, sufficient…
We answer, by counterexample, several open questions concerning algebras of operators on a Hilbert space. The answers add further weight to the thesis that, for many purposes, such algebras ought to be studied in the framework of operator…
We show that the main problem left open in Wenzel: "Real and complex operator ideals" (wenzelopidls.latex), can be solved using the Banach spaces $Z_\alpha$ recently constructed by Kalton: "An elementary example of a Banach space not…
We give criteria for the membership of Hankel operators on the Hardy space on the disc in the Dixmier class, and establish estimates for their Dixmier trace. In contrast to the situation in the Bergman space setting, it turns out that there…
In this article we introduce several new examples of Wiener pairs $\mathcal{A} \subseteq \mathcal{B}$, where $\mathcal{B} = \mathcal{B}(\ell^2(X;\mathcal{H}))$ is the Banach algebra of bounded operators acting on the Hilbert space-valued…
The aim of this work is to study the structure of bounded finite potent endomorphisms on Hilbert spaces. In particular, for these operators, an answer to the Invariant Subspace Problem is given and the main properties of its adjoint…
The space of positive operator-valued measures on the Borel sets of a compact (or even locally compact) Hausdorff space with values in the algebra of linear operators acting on a d-dimensional Hilbert space is studied from the perspectives…
We will argue in this paper that the type classification of v.Neumann algebras play an important role in a theory of quantum gravity and quantum space-time physics. We provide arguments that type $II_{\infty}$ and its representation as a…
