We present a finite algorithm for computing the set of irreducible unitary representations of a real reductive group G. The Langlands classification, as formulated by Knapp and Zuckerman, exhibits any representation with an invariant…
We investigate the structure of subspaces of a Hilbert space that are invariant under unitary representations of a discrete group. We work with square integrable representations, and we show that they are those for which we can construct an…
We establish an uncountable amenable ergodic Roth theorem, in which the acting group is not assumed to be countable and the space need not be separable. This generalizes a previous result of Bergelson, McCutcheon and Zhang, and complements…
Let $T$ be a bounded quaternionic normal operator on a right quaternionic Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We show that $T$ can be factorized in a strongly irreducible sense, that is, for any $\delta >0$ there exist a compact operator $K$ with…
The word problem for discrete groups is well-known to be undecidable by a Turing Machine; more precisely, it is reducible both to and from and thus equivalent to the discrete Halting Problem. The present work introduces and studies a real…
We extend the symbol calculus and study the limit operator theory for $\sigma$-compact, \'{e}tale and amenable groupoids, in the Hilbert space case. This approach not only unifies various existing results which include the cases of exact…
We explicitly establish a unitary correspondence between spherical irreducible tensor operators and cartesian tensor operators of any rank. That unitary relation is implemented by means of a basis of integer-spin wave functions that…
Motivated by the open problem of exhibiting a subset of Euclidean space which has no exponential Riesz basis, we focus on exponential Riesz bases in finite abelian groups. We point out that that every subset of a finite abelian group has…
Let R be a commutative ring with unity and a let A be a not necessarily commutative R-algebra which is free as an R-module. If I is an ideal in A, one can ask when A/I is also free as an R-module. We show that if A has an admissible system…
It is well known that the closed subspaces of a Hilbert space form an orthomodular lattice. Elements of this orthomodular lattice are the propositions of a quantum mechanical system represented by the Hilbert space, and by Gleason's theorem…
We show that the strong operator topology, the weak operator topology and the compact-open topology agree on the space of unitary operators of a infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space. Moreover, we show that the unitary group endowed…
A famous question of Halmos asks whether every operator on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space is a norm limit of reducible operators. In [30], Voiculescu gave this problem an affirmative answer by his remarkable non-commutative…
An \textit{ideal} of $N$-tuples of operators is a class invariant with respect to unitary equivalence which contains direct sums of arbitrary collections of its members as well as their (reduced) parts. New decomposition theorems (with…
Using an approach emerging from the theory of closable derivations on von Neumann algebras, we exhibit a class of groups CR satisfying the following property: given any groups G_1, G_2 in CR, then any free, ergodic, measure preserving…
Sz.-Nagy's famous theorem states that a bounded operator $T$ which acts on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is similar to a unitary operator if and only if $T$ is invertible and both $T$ and $T^{-1}$ are power bounded. There is an…
In this paper we initiate the study of a fundamental yet untapped random model of non-selfadjoint, bounded linear operators acting on a separable complex Hilbert space. We replace the weights $w_n=1$ in the classical unilateral shift $T$,…
In this note we address various algorithmic problems that arise in the computation of the operator norm in unitary representations of a group on Hilbert space. We show that the operator norm in the universal unitary representation is…
This paper is the first in a series of papers developing a functional-analytic theory of vertex (operator) algebras and their representations. For an arbitrary Z-graded finitely-generated vertex algebra (V, Y, 1) satisfying the standard…
Countably infinite groups (with a fixed underlying set) constitute a Polish space $G$ with a suitable metric, hence the Baire category theorem holds in $G$. We study isomorphism invariant subsets of $G$, which we call group properties. We…
In this short article, we mainly prove that, for any spectral operator $A$ of type $m$ on a complex Hilbert space, if a bounded operator $B$ lies in the collection of bounded linear operators that are in the $k$-centralizer of every bounded…
