Matrix representations of arbitrary bounded operators on Hilbert spaces

Functional Analysis 2023-11-10 v2

Abstract

We show that under natural and quite general assumptions, a large part of a matrix for a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space can be preassigned. The result is obtained in a more general setting of operator tuples leading to interesting consequences, e.g. when the tuple consists of powers of a single operator. We also prove several variants of this result of independent interest. The paper substantially extends former research on matrix representations in infinite-dimensional spaces dealing mainly with prescribing the main diagonals.
