We employ the pinching theorem, ensuring that some operators A admit any sequence of contractions as an operator diagonal of A, to deduce/improve two recent theorems of Kennedy-Skoufranis and Loreaux-Weiss for conditional expectations onto…
Some results on fixed points related to the contractive compositions of bounded operators in complete metric spaces are discussed through the manuscript. The class of composite operators under study can include, in particular, sequences of…
The main goal of this paper is to find operator algebra variants of certain deep results of Stormer, Friedman and Russo, Choi and Effros, Effros and Stormer, Robertson and Youngson, Youngson, and others, concerning projections on…
It is proved recently by Benamara-Nikolski that a contraction having finite defects and spectrum not filling in the closed unit disc, is similar to a normal operator if and only if it has the so-called linear resolvent growth property. We…
Let $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and let $A$ be a closed linear operator (everywhere bounded or unbounded). In this paper, we study (among others) equations of the type $A^*A=A^n$ where $n\geq2$ and see when they yield $A=A^*$ (or a weaker class of…
A commuting tuple of $n$ operators $(S_1, \dots, S_{n-1}, P)$ defined on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, for which the closed symmetrized polydisc \[ \Gamma_n = \left\{ \left(\sum_{i=1}^{n}z_i, \sum\limits_{1\leq i<j\leq n}z_iz_j, \dots,…
All compact $AC(\sigma)$ operators have a representation analogous to that for compact normal operators. As a partial converse we obtain conditions which allow one to construct a large number of such operators. Using the results in the…
A complete contraction on a C*-algebra A, which preserves all closed two sided ideals J, can be approximated pointwise by elementary complete contractions if and only if the induced map on the tensor product of B with A/J is contractive for…
We show that (for the weak operator topology) the set of unitary operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space is residual in the set of all contractions. The analogous result holds for isometries and the strong operator…
Consider a compact metric space $X$, and let $\mathcal{F}=\{f_1,\,f_2,\ldots,\, f_k\}$ be a set of contracting and continuous self maps on $X$. Let $\Sigma$ be a sub-shift on $k$ symbols, and let $\Sigma_k$ be the full shift. Define…
We characterize sequences of numbers $(a_n)$ such that $\sum_{n\geq 1} a_n\Phi_n$ converges a.e. for any orthonormal system $(\Phi_n)$ in any $L_2$-space. In our criterion, we use the set $B =\{\sum_{m\geq n} |a_m|^2; n\geq 1\}$ and its…
In this paper we present a new extension of the theory of well-bounded operators to cover operators with complex spectrum. In previous work a new concept of the class of absolutely continuous functions on a nonempty compact subset $\sigma$…
We investigate the almost everywhere convergence of sequences of convolution operators given by probability measures $\mu_n$ on $\mathbb R$. If this sequence of operators constitutes an approximate identity on a particular class of…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of contractive operators and strongly continuous semigroups on separable Hilbert spaces using the notion of rigidity. In particular, we show that a "typical" contraction $T$ contains the unit circle times…
Generalizations in many directions of the contraction procedure for Lie algebras introduced by E.J.Saletan are proposed. Products of arbitrary nature, not necessarily Lie brackets, are considered on sections of finite-dimensional vector…
In this paper we characterize those positive operators which are asymptotic limits of contractions in strong operator topology or uniform topology. We examine the problem when the asymptotic limits of two contractions coincide.
We consider an abstract sequence $\{A_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ of closed symmetric operators on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. It is assumed that all $A_n$'s have equal deficiency indices $(k,k)$ and thus self-adjoint extensions…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and let $\big\{A_{n}\big\}_{n\geq 1}$ be a sequence of bounded linear operators on $\mathcal{H}$. Then a bounded operator $B$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{K} \supseteq \mathcal{H}$ is said to be…
In this paper, based on the block operator technique and operator spectral theory, the general explicit expressions for intertwining operators and direct rotations of two orthogonal projections have been established. As a consequence, it is…
We show explicitly that all 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions are limiting cases of a single system: the generic 3-parameter potential on the 2-sphere, S9 in our listing. We extend the Wigner-In\"on\"u method of Lie algebra…
