We give an explicit description of all minimal self-adjoint extensions of a densely defined, closed symmetric operator in a Hilbert space with deficiency indices $(1, 1)$.

Given a Hilbert module E over a C*-algebra A, we show that the collection of all bounded A-module operators acting on E forms the reflexive closure for the algebra of the adjointable operators. We also make an observation regarding the…

New results are added to the paper [4] about q-closed and solvable sesquilinear forms. The structure of the Banach space $\mathcal{D}[||\cdot||_\Omega]$ defined on the domain $\mathcal{D}$ of a q-closed sesquilinear form $\Omega$ is unique…

Using the theory of signatures of hermitian forms over algebras with involution, developed by us in earlier work, we introduce a notion of positivity for symmetric elements and prove a noncommutative analogue of Artin's solution to…

In this work, firstly in the direct sum of Hilbert spaces of vector-functions L^2 (H,(-{\infty},a_1)){\Box}L^2 (H,(a_2,b_2)){\Box}L^2 (H,(a_3,+{\infty})),- {\infty}<a_1<a_2<b_2<a_3<+{\infty} all selfadjoint extensions of the minimal…

This is a continuation of our previous paper. We consider a certain order-like relation for positive operators on a Hilbert space. This relation is defined by using the Jensen inequality with respect to the square-root function. We show…

In this note, we define a bounded variant on the Hilbert projective metric on an infinite dimensional space $E$ and study the contraction properties of the projective maps associated with positive linear operators on $E$. More precisely, we…

We study monotone operators in reflexive Banach spaces that are invariant with respect to a group of suitable isometric isomorphisms and we show that they always admit a maximal extension which preserves the same invariance. A similar…

We study two extension problems, and their interconnections: (i) extension of positive definite (p.d.) continuous functions defined on subsets in locally compact groups $G$; and (ii) (in case of Lie groups $G$) representations of the…

We develop new closed form representations of sums of (n + {\alpha})th shifted harmonic numbers and reciprocal binomial coefficients in terms of {\alpha}th shifted harmonic numbers. Some interesting new consequences and illustrative…

In this work, we revisit the Krein-Rutman theory for semigroups of positive operators in a Banach lattice framework and we provide some very general, efficient and handy results with constructive estimates about: the existence of a solution…

Assume that $A$ is a closed linear operator defined on all of a Hilbert space $H$. Then $A$ is bounded. A new short proof of this classical theorem is given on the basis of the uniform boundedness principle. The proof can be easily extended…

The main result says that every surjective isometry between two ideal Banach function spaces satisfying certain conditions can be presented as a composition of a measurable transformation of a variable and multiplication by a function.

We introduce the first operator splitting method for composite monotone inclusions outside of Hilbert spaces. The proposed primal-dual method constructs iteratively the best Bregman approximation to an arbitrary point from the Kuhn-Tucker…

In a previous paper, the authors showed that in a reflexive Banach space the lower limit of a sequence of maximal monotone operators is always representable by a convex function. The present paper gives precisions to the latter result by…

There has been a long-standing conjecture in Banach algebra that every amenable operator is similar to a normal operator. In this paper, we study the structure of amenable operators on Hilbert spaces. At first, we show that the conjecture…

In this article, we extend several relation-theoretic notions to topological spaces. We introduce relation preserving contraction mapping into topological spaces and utilize the same to extend Banach contraction principle in topological…

A new representation -which is similar to the Bargmann representation- of the creation and annihilation operators is introduced, in which the operators act like "multiplication with" and like "derivation with respect to" a single real…

Recently, M. Daws introduced a notion of co-representation of abelian Hopf--von Neumann algebras on general reflexive Banach spaces. In this note, we show that this notion cannot be extended beyond subhomogeneous Hopf--von Neumann algebras.…

We study the invertibility of Banach algebras elements in their extensions, and invertible extensions of Banach and Hilbert space operators with prescribed growth conditions for the norm of inverses. As applications, the solutions of two…
