Given a nonnegative self-adjoint operator $H$ acting on a separable Hilbert space and an orthogonal projection $P$ such that $H_P := (H^{1/2}P)^*(H^{1/2}P)$ is densely defined, we prove that $\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}…

We provide sufficient and necessary conditions guaranteeing equations $(A+B)^*=A^*+B^*$ and $(AB)^*=B^*A^*$ concerning densely defined unbounded operators $A,B$ between Hilbert spaces. We also improve the perturbation theory of selfadjoint…

We revisit and extend known bounds on operator-valued functions of the type $$ T_1^{-z} S T_2^{-1+z}, \quad z \in \ol \Sigma = \{z\in\bbC\,|\, \Re(z) \in [0,1]\}, $$ under various hypotheses on the linear operators $S$ and $T_j$, $j=1,2$.…

In this paper the authors show how to use Riemann-Hilbert techniques to prove various results, some old, some new, in the theory of Toeplitz operators and orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle (OPUC's). There are four main results: the…

Let $P(\Delta)$ be a polynomial of the Laplace operator $\Delta=\sum_{j=1}^n\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x^2_j}$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove the existence of weak solutions of the equation $P(\Delta)u=f$ and the existence of a bounded right…

We investigate different possiblities of subspaces of the space $\ell_{\infty}$ in terms of whether the subspaces are polyhedral or not. We further study finite-dimensional subspaces of $\ell_{\infty}$ which are of the form $\ell_\infty^n$…

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…

We prove that an injective, not necessarily bounded weighted bilateral shift operator on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ is similar to a normal operator if and only if it is similar to a scalar multiple of the simple (i.e. unweighted) bilateral shift…

We prove that in the reflexive range $1<p<q<\infty$ the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $\ell_p\oplus\ell_q$ has infinitely many closed ideals. This solves a problem raised by A. Pietsch in his book `Operator ideals'.

Let $p\in(0, 1]$. In this paper, the authors prove that a sublinear operator $T$ (which is originally defined on smooth functions with compact support) can be extended as a bounded sublinear operator from product Hardy spaces $H^p({{\mathbb…

In this paper, we study {\it operator spaces\/} in the sense of the theory developed recently by Blecher-Paulsen [BP] and Effros-Ruan [ER1]. By an operator space, we mean a closed subspace $E\subset B(H)$, with $H$ Hilbert. We will be…

The weak operator topology closed operator algebra on $L^2(R)$ generated by the one-parameter semigroups for translation, dilation and multiplication by $exp(i\lambda x), \lambda \geq 0$, is shown to be a reflexive operator algebra, in the…

Unlike Toeplitz operators on $H^2$, truncated Toeplitz operators do not have a natural matricial characterization. Consequently, these operators are difficult to study numerically. In this note we provide criteria for a matrix with distinct…

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…

We show that if a nonscalar operator on a separable Hilbert space has a nontrivial invariant subspace, then it has also a nontrivial hyperinvariant subspace. Thus the hyperinvariant subspace problem is equivalent to the invariant subspace…

A general classification of linear differential and finite-difference operators possessing a finite-dimensional invariant subspace with a polynomial basis is given. The main result is that any operator with the above property must have a…

In 1968, Paul Halmos initiated the research on density of the set of irreducible operators on a separable Hilbert space. Through the research, a long-standing unsolved problem inquires: is the set of irreducible operators dense in $B(H)$…

Let $A$ be a Banach space, $p>1$, and $1/p+1/q=1$. If a sequence $a=(a_i)$ in $A$ has a finite $p$-sum, then the operator $\Lambda_a:\ell^q\to A$, defined by $\Lambda_a(\beta)=\sum_{i=1}^\infty \beta_i a_i, \beta=(\beta_i)\in \ell^q$, is…

Using a result from ergodic Ramsey theory, we answer a question posed by B\`es, Martin, Peris and Shkarin by showing a mixing operator $T$ on a Hilbert space such that the tuple $(T, T^2)$ is not disjoint transitive.

We show that the multiples of the backward shift operator on the spaces $\ell_{p}$, $1\leq p<\infty$, or $c_{0}$, when endowed with coordinatewise multiplication, do not possess frequently hypercyclic algebras. More generally, we…
