Following an article by John von Neumann on infinite tensor products, we develop the idea that the usual formalism of quantum mechanics, associated with unitary equivalence of representations, stops working when countable infinities of…
A. Grinshpan posed a deep conjecture on the norm of the Grunsky operator generated by univalent functions in the disk. It gives a quantitative answer in terms of the Grunsky coefficients, to which extent a univalent function determines the…
We give a formulation of classical mechanics in the language of operators acting on a Hilbert space. The formulation given comes from a unitary irreducible representation of the Galilei group that is compatible with the basic postulates of…
We introduce the concept of a \mu-scale invariant operator with respect to unitary transformation in a separable complex Hilbert space. We show that if a nonnegative densely defined symmetric operator is \mu-scale invariant for some \mu >0,…
We consider the discrete spectrum of the two-dimensional Hamiltonian $H=H_0+V$, where $H_0$ is a Schr\"odinger operator with a non-constant magnetic field $B$ that depends only on one of the spatial variables, and $V$ is an electric…
The finite entropy of black holes suggests that local regions of spacetime are described by finite-dimensional factors of Hilbert space, in contrast with the infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces of quantum field theory. With this in mind, we…
We use the variational method for the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem to analytically calculate some properties of holographic superconductors with Gauss-Bonnet gravity in probe limit. By studying the holographic p-wave and s-wave…
Coordinate noncommutativity, rather than being introduced through deformations of operator products, is achieved by coupling an auxiliary system with large energy excitations to the one of interest. Integrating out the auxiliary dynamics,…
A deformation of Heisenberg algebra induces among other consequences a loss of Hermiticity of some operators that generate this algebra. Therefore, these operators are not Hermitian, nor is the Hamiltonian operator built from them. In the…
Descriptions of classical mechanics in Hilbert space go back to the work of Koopman and von Neumann in the 1930s. Decades later, van Hove derived a unitary representation of the group of contact transformations which recently has been used…
We obtain H\"older stability estimates for the inverse Steklov and Calder\'on problems for Schr\"odinger operators corresponding to a special class of $L^2$ radial potentials on the unit ball. These results provide an improvement on earlier…
The paper concerns upper and lower estimates for the number of negative eigenvalues of one- and two-dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger operators and more general operators with the spectral dimensions $d\leq 2$. The classical Cwikel-Lieb-Rosenblum…
This is an expository-survey on weak stability of bounded linear operators acting on normed spaces in general and, in particular, on Hilbert spaces. The paper gives a comprehensive account of the problem of weak operator stability,…
We study the spectral bounds of self-adjoint operators on the Hilbert space of square-integrable functions, arising from the representation theory of the Heisenberg group. Interestingly, starting either with the von Neumann lattice or the…
A notion of super operator system is defined which generalizes the usual notion of operator systems to include certain unital involutive operator spaces which cannot be represented completely isometric as a concrete operator system on some…
Given a topological group $G$ and a unitary representation $U$ of $G$, we consider the problem of classifying the positive operator measures which are based on a $G$-homogeneous space $X$ and covariant with respect to the representation…
In this note, we look at some hypoelliptic operators arising from nilpotent rank 2 Lie algebras. In particular, we concentrate on the diffusion generated by three Brownian motions and their three L\'evy areas, which is the simplest…
A classical result of Nitsche \cite{Nit57} about the behaviour of the solutions to the Liouville equation $\Delta u=4 e^{2u}$ near isolated singularities is generalized to solutions of the Gaussian curvature equation $\Delta u=- \kappa(z)…
The space of positive operator-valued measures on the Borel sets of a compact (or even locally compact) Hausdorff space with values in the algebra of linear operators acting on a d-dimensional Hilbert space is studied from the perspectives…
Two-sided estimates for higher order eigenvalues are presented for a class of non-local Schr\"odinger operators by using the jump rate and the growth of the potential. For instance, let $L$ be the generator of a L\'evy process with L\'evy…
