Several unitarily invariant norm inequalities and numerical radius inequalities for Hilbert space operators are studied. We investigate some necessary and sufficient conditions for the parallelism of two bounded operators. For a finite rank…

Let $\eps >0$. We prove that there exists an operator $T_\eps:\ell_2\to\ell_2$, such that for any polynomial $P$ we have $\|{P(T)}\| \leq(1+\eps)\|{P}\|_\infty$, but which is not similar to a contraction, {\it i.e.} there does not exist an…

A notion of partial ideal for an operator algebra is a weakening the notion of ideal where the defining algebraic conditions are enforced only in the commutative subalgebras. We show that, in a von Neumann algebra, the ultraweakly closed…

We extend results on compressed Toeplitz operators on the backward shift invariant subspaces of $H^2 $ to the context of the spaces $H^p$, $1<p<\infty.$

Let $A_r=\{r<|z|<1\}$ be an annulus. We consider the class of operators $\mathcal{F}_r:=\{T\in\mathcal{B}(H): r^2T^{-1}(T^{-1})^*+TT^*\le r^2+1,\hspace{0.08 cm}\sigma(T)\subset A_r\}$ and show that for every bounded holomorphic function…

Let denote by $S(\phi)$ the extremal operator defined by the compression of the unilateral shift $S$ to the model subspace $ H(\phi)=H^{2} \ominus \phi H^{2} $ as the following $S(\phi)f(z)=P(zf(z)),$ where $P$ denotes the orthogonal…

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…

This note deals with the operator $T^*T$, where $T$ is a densely defined operator on a complex Hilbert space. We reprove a recent result of Z. Sebesty\'en and Zs. Tarcsay [13]: If $T^*T$ and $TT^*$ are self-adjoint, then $T$ is closed. In…

Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra. It is shown that every absolutely summing operator from $A$ into $\ell_2$ factors through a Hilbert space operator that belongs to the 4-Schatten- von Neumann class. We also provide finite dimensinal examples…

Given a contraction A on a Hilbert space H, an operator T on H is said to be A-invariant if <Tx,x>=<TAx,Ax> for every x in H such that ||Ax||=||x||. In the special case in which both defect indices of A are equal to 1, we show that every…

For a {bounded} non-negative self-adjoint operator acting in a complex, infinite-dimensional, separable Hilbert space H and possessing a dense range R we propose a new approach to characterisation of phenomenon concerning the existence of…

In this article, we investigate the ball version of von Neumann inequality for the class of doubly contractive $d$-tuple of weighted shift. We show that if the weighted shift is balanced or satisfies an appropriate weight condition, then it…

Four possible definitions of the commutation relation $[S,T]=\Id$ of two closable unbounded operators $S,T$ are compared. The {\em weak} sense of this commutator is given in terms of the inner product of the Hilbert space $\H$ where the…

The principle of optimizing inequalities, or their equivalent operator theoretic formulation, is well established in analysis. For an operator, this corresponds to extending its action to larger domains, hopefully to the largest possible…

In this paper we classify all positive extremal functions to a sharp weighted Sobolev inequality on the upper half space, which involves divergent operators with degeneracy on the boundary. As an application of the results, we can derive a…

We study Schur-type upper triangular forms for elements, T, of von Neumann algebras equipped with faithful, normal, tracial states. These were introduced in a paper of Dykema, Sukochev and Zanin; they are based on Haagerup-Schultz…

Some elementary inequalities providing upper bounds for the difference of the norm and the numerical radius of a bounded linear operator on Hilbert spaces under appropriate conditions are given.

The optimal constants in a class of exponential type inequalities for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in the Gauss space are detected. The existence of extremal functions in the relevant inequalities is also established. Our results…

We use a ``weakly formulated'' Sylvester equation $$A^{1/2}TM^{-1/2}-A^{-1/2}TM^{1/2}=F$$ to obtain new bounds for the rotation of spectral subspaces of a nonnegative selfadjoint operator in a Hilbert space. Our bound extends the known…

New inequalities for the numerical radius of bounded linear operators defined on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ are given. In particular, it is established that if $T$ is a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$…
