This paper may be viewed as having two aims. First, we continue our study of algebras of operators on a Hilbert space which have a contractive approximate identity, this time from a more Banach algebraic point of view. Namely, we mainly…

This thesis investigates the central role of homomorphism problems (structure-preserving maps) in two complementary domains: database querying over finite, graph-shaped data, and constraint solving over (potentially infinite) structures.…

The paper deals with continuous homomorphisms $S \ni s \mapsto T_s \in L(E)$ of amenable semigroups $S$ into the algebra $L(E)$ of all bounded linear operators on a Banach space $E$. For a closed linear subspace $F$ of $E$, sufficient…

We classify noninvertible, holomorphic selfmaps of the projective plane that preserve an algebraic web. In doing so, we obtain interesting examples of critically finite maps.

This paper focuses on infinite-horizon optimal control problems for dissipative systems and the relations to their finite-horizon formulations. We show that, for a large class of problems, dissipativity of the state equation, when a…

We focus on Korn-Maxwell-Sobolev inequalities for operators of reduced constant rank. These inequalities take the form \[ \|P - \Pi_{\mathbb{B}} \Pi_{\ker\mathscr{A}} P\|_{\dot{\mathrm{W}}^{k-1, p^*}(\mathbb{R}^n)} \le c \,…

We establish a more precise description of those surjective or bijective continuous linear operators preserving orthogonality between C$^*$-algebras. The new description is applied to determine all uniformly continuous one-parameter…

Let $H$ be a reflexive, dense, separable, infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space and let $B(H)$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H$. In this paper, we carry out characterizations of norm-attainable operators in normed…

We determine the structure of all bijections on the cone of positive semidefinite operators which preserve the quantum $f$-divergence for an arbitrary strictly convex function $f$ defined on the positive halfline. It turns out that any such…

If T is a bounded linear operator acting on an infinite-dimensional Banach space, then there exists and operator F of rank at most one and arbitrarily small norm such that T-F has an invariant subspace of infinite dimension and codimension.…

For an $n \times n$ nonnegative matrix $P$, an isomorphism is obtained between the lattice of initial subsets (of ${1,...,n}$) for $P$ and the lattice of $P$-invariant faces of the nonnegative orthant $\IR^{n}_{+}$. Motivated by this…

Let ${\rm Mat}_n(\mathbb{F})$ denote the set of square $n\times n$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic different from two. The permanental rank ${\rm prk}\,(A)$ of a matrix $A \in{\rm Mat}_{n}(\mathbb{F})$ is the size of…

Let $B(H)$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space $H$. For $T \in B(H)$ and $\lambda \in \mathbb{C}$, let $H_{T}(\{\lambda\})$ denotes the local spectral subspace of $T$ associated…

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate some natural problems regarding the order structure of representable functionals on $^*$-algebras. We describe the extreme points of order intervals, and give a nontrivial sufficient…

Theories of classification distinguish classes with some good structure theorem from those for which none is possible. Some classes (dense linear orders, for instance) are non-classifiable in general, but are classifiable when we consider…

Let $C$ be a closed cone with nonempty interior $C^\circ$ in a Banach space. Let $f:C^\circ \rightarrow C^\circ$ be an order-preserving subhomogeneous function with a fixed point in $C^\circ$. We introduce a condition which guarantees that…

We show that a positive linear map preserves local continuity (convergence) of the entropy if and only if it preserves finiteness of the entropy, i.e. transforms operators with finite entropy to operators with finite entropy. The last…

In the present paper, we consider nonlinear Markov operators, namely polynomial stochastic operators. We introduce a notion of orthogonal preserving polynomial stochastic operators. The purpose of this study is to show that surjectivity of…

We define a class of partial orders on a Coxeter group associated with sets of reflections. In special cases, these lie between the left weak order and the Bruhat order. We prove that these posets are graded by the length function and that…

A computationally challenging classical elimination theory problem is to compute polynomials which vanish on the set of tensors of a given rank. By moving away from computing polynomials via elimination theory to computing pseudowitness…
