It is often inevitable to introduce an indefinite-metric space in quantum field theory, for example, which is explained for the sake of the manifestly covariant quantization of the electromagnetic field. We show two more evident…
In this article, we prove the Weyl-von Neumann theorem for antilinear skew-self-adjoint operators. More specifically, we prove the following: Let $A$ be an antilinear skew-self-adjoint operator on a separable Hilbert space $H$ whose kernel…
A general fixed point theorem for isometries in terms of metric functionals is proved under the assumption of the existence of a conical bicombing. It is new even for isometries of Banach spaces as well as for non-locally compact…
In this article, we construct operator models for meromorphic functions of bounded type on Krein spaces. This construction is based on certain reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces which are closely related to model spaces. Specifically, we…
We survey index theorems counting eigenvalues of linearized Hamiltonian systems and characteristic values of polynomial operator pencils. We present a simple common graphical interpretation and generalization of the index theory using the…
The geometry of spaces with indefinite inner product, known also as Krein spaces, is a basic tool for developing Operator Theory therein. In the present paper we establish a link between this geometry and the algebraic theory of…
In 1955 Kadison \cite{14} asked whether the analogue of the classical Burnside's theorem of the Linear Algebra holds in the infinite dimensional case. We use reproducing kernels method to solve the Kadison question. Namely, we prove that…
We study to what extent Lieb--Thirring inequalities are extendable from self-adjoint to general (possibly non-self-adjoint) Jacobi and Schr\"{o}dinger operators. Namely, we prove the conjecture of Hansmann and Katriel from [Complex Anal.…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ equipped with a faithful normal semifinite trace $\tau$, $S(\mathcal{M},\tau)$ be the ${}^*$-algebra of all $\tau$-measurable operators. Let…
The main result of this paper is a description of the space of functions on the unit circle, for which Krein's trace formula holds for arbitrary pairs of unitary operators with trace class difference. This space coincides with the space of…
In 1989 H. Tverberg proposed a quite general conjecture in Discrete geometry, which could be considered as the common basis for many results in Combinatorial geometry and at the same time as a discrete analogue of the common transversal…
Let $A$ be a self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space $\fH$. Assume that the spectrum of $A$ consists of two disjoint components $\sigma_0$ and $\sigma_1$ such that the convex hull of the set $\sigma_0$ does not intersect the set…
Let $V=\C^n$ be endowed with an orthogonal form and $G=\Or(V)$ be the corresponding orthogonal group. Brauer showed in 1937 that there is a surjective homomorphism $\nu:B_r(n)\to\End_G(V^{\otimes r})$, where $B_r(n)$ is the $r$-string…
Let T be the quasinilpotent operator on ell_1 without an invariant subspace constructed by C. J. Read in [R3]. We prove that the modulus of this operator has an invariant subspace (and even an eigenvector). This answers a question posed by…
If $T$ is a Kreiss bounded operator on a Banach space, then $\|T^n\|=O(n)$. Forty years ago Shields conjectured that in Hilbert spaces, $\|T^n\| = O(\sqrt{n})$. A negative answer to this conjecture was given by Spijker, Tracogna and Welfert…
We study unitary representations of groups in Krein spaces, irreducibility criteria and integral decompositions. Our main tool is the theory of Krein subspaces and their (reproducing) kernels and a variant of Choquet's theorem.
Operator algebras generated by partial isometries and their adjoints form the basis for some of the most well studied classes of C*-algebras. The primary object of this paper is the norm-closed operator algebra generated by a left…
In this work we treat realization results for operator-valued functions which are analytic in the complex sense or slice hyperholomorphic over the quaternions. In the complex setting, we prove a realization theorem for an operator-valued…
We consider the indefinite Sturm-Liouville differential expression \[\mathfrak{a}(f) := - \frac{1}{w}\left( \frac{1}{r} f' \right)',\] where $\mathfrak{a}$ is defined on a finite or infinite open interval $I$ with $0\in I$ and the…
The work is devoted to the study of the similarity of a correct restriction to some self-adjoint operator in the case when the minimal operator is symmetric. The resulting theorem was applied to the Sturm-Liouville operator and the Laplace…
