For the almost Mathieu operator $(H_{\lambda,\alpha,\theta}u)_n=u_{n+1}+u_{n-1}+2\lambda \cos2\pi(\theta+n\alpha)u_n$, Avila and Jitomirskaya guess that for a.e. $\theta$, $H_{\lambda,\alpha,\theta}$ satisfies Anderson localization if $…

We prove that for Diophantine \om and almost every \th, the almost Mathieu operator, (H_{\omega,\lambda,\theta}\Psi)(n)=\Psi(n+1) + \Psi(n-1) + \lambda\cos 2\pi(\omega n +\theta)\Psi(n), exhibits localization for \lambda > 2 and purely…

Let $q = e^{i \theta} \in \mathbb{T}$ (where $\theta \in \mathbb{R}$), and let $u,v$ be $q$-commuting unitaries, i.e., $u$ and $v$ are unitaries such that $vu = quv$. In this paper we find the optimal constant $c = c_\theta$ such that $u,v$…

We initiate an approach to simultaneously treat numerators and denominators of Green's functions arising from quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators, which in particular allows us to study completely resonant phases of the almost Mathieu…

The almost Mathieu operator is the discrete Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\alpha,\beta,\theta}$ on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ defined via $(H_{\alpha,\beta,\theta}f)(k) = f(k + 1) + f(k - 1) + \beta \cos(2\pi \alpha k + \theta) f(k)$. We derive…

Let $ \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ represent the $C^*$-algebra, which consists of all bounded linear operators on $\mathscr{H},$ and let $N ( .) $ be a norm on $ \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$. We define a norm $w_{(N,e)} (. , . )$ on $…

Let $\Omega_+$ be either the open unit disc or the open upper half plane or the open right half plane. In this paper, we compute the norm of the basic operator $A_\alpha=\Pi_\Theta T_{b_\alpha}|_{\mathcal{H}(\Theta)}$ in the vector valued…

Very recently, Bo\v{z}in and Karapetrovi\'c solved a conjecture by proving that the norm of the Hilbert matrix operator $\mathcal{H}$ on the Bergman space $A^p$ is equal to $\frac{\pi}{\sin(\frac{2\pi}{p})}$ for $2 < p < 4.$ In this article…

Let $H$ be a complex separable Hilbert space and $B(H)$ the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H$. In this paper, we give considerable generalizations of the inequalities for norms of commutators of normal operators. Let $S, T \in…

We introduce the $\lambda$-mean transform $M_{\lambda}(T)$ of a Hilbert space operator $T$ as an extension of some operator transforms based on the Duggal transform $T^D$ by $M_{\lambda}(T) := \lambda T + (1-\lambda)T^D$, and present some…

This thesis is devoted to asymptotic norm estimates for oscillatory integral operators acting on the L^2 space of functions of one real variable. The operators in question have compact support and an oscillatory kernel of the form exp(i…

Let T be a quasidiagonal operator on a separable Hilbert space. Then T is the norm limit of operators, each of which generate a finite dimensional C*-algebra, if and only if the C*-algebra generated by T is exact.

We derive a new homotopy formula for a strictly pseudoconvex domain of $C^2$ boundary in ${\mathbf C}^n$ by using a method of Lieb and Range and obtain estimates in Lipschitz spaces for the homotopy operators. For $r>1$ and $q>0$, we obtain…

Suppose two Hermitian matrices $A,B$ almost commute ($\Vert [A,B] \Vert \leq \delta$). Are they close to a commuting pair of Hermitian matrices, $A',B'$, with $\Vert A-A' \Vert,\Vert B-B'\Vert \leq \epsilon$? A theorem of H. Lin shows that…

Let ${\mathbb B}(\mathscr H)$ denote the set of all bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space ${\mathscr H}$. In this paper, we present some norm inequalities for sums of operators which are a generalization of some recent…

For each $\alpha \in (0,1)$, $A_\alpha$ denotes the universal $C^*$-algebra generated by two unitaries $u$ and $v$, which satisfy the commutation relation $uv=\exp (2\pi i\alpha)vu$. We consider the order four automorphism $\sigma$ of…

We determine numerically the self-similarity maps for spectra of the almost Mathieu operators, a two-dimensional fractal-like structure known as the Hofstadter butterfly. The similarity maps each have a horizontal component determined by…

We find estimates on the norms commutators of the form [f(x), y] in terms of the norm of [x, y] assuming that x and y are contractions in a C*-algebra A, with x normal and with spectrum within the domain of f. In particular we discuss [x^2,…
