In this paper, we prove that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital separable $C^*$-algebra, $\mathcal{M}$ is a von Neumann algebra which has the Kirchberg's quotient weak expectation property (QWEP), and $\phi:\, \mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{M}$…

A triple of finite von Neumann algebras $B\subseteq N\subseteq M$ is said to have the relative weak asymptotic homomorphism property if there exists a net of unitary operators $\{u_{\lambda}\}_{\lambda\in \Lambda}$ in $B$ such that…

For a normal measurable operator $a$ affiliated with a von Neumann factor $\mathcal{M}$ we show: If $\mathcal{M}$ is infinite, then there is $\lambda_0\in \mathbb{C}$ so that for $\varepsilon>0$ there are…

We extend an example of B. Aupetit, which illustrates spectral discontinuity for operators on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, to a general spectral discontinuity result in abstract Banach algebras. This can then be used to…

In this paper, we extend Fredholm theory in von Neumann algebras established by Breuer in [5] and [6] to spectral Fredholm theory. We consider 2 by 2 upper triangular operator matrices with coefficients in a von Neumann algebra and give the…

The spectral properties of a class of non-selfadjoint second order elliptic operators with indefinite weight functions on unbounded domains $\Omega$ are investigated. It is shown that under an abstract regularity assumption the nonreal…

We consider a discrete Schroedinger operator whose potential is the sum of a Wigner-von Neumann term and a summable term. The essential spectrum of this operator equals to the interval [-2,2]. Inside this interval, there are two critical…

Building on the work of \.{I}nan and of Almahariq--Peters--Vergili, we develop an axiomatic framework for approximate algebra based on an algebra-compatible closure operator $\Phi^{\!*}$ on a unital ring. The operator is assumed to be…

Let $T:H_1\rightarrow H_2$ be a bounded linear operator defined between complex Hilbert spaces $H_1$ and $H_2$. We say $T$ to be \textit{minimum attaining} if there exists a unit vector $x\in H_1$ such that $\|Tx\|=m(T)$, where…

Results of Haagerup and Schultz (2009) about existence of invariant subspaces that decompose the Brown measure are extended to a large class of unbounded operators affiliated to a tracial von Neumann algebra. These subspaces are used to…

Let $\mathcal{M}\subseteq\mathcal{B}\left( \mathcal{H}\right) $ be a countable decomposable properly infinite von Neumann algebra with a faithful normal semifinite tracial weight $\tau$ where $\mathcal{B}\left( \mathcal{H}\right) $ is the…

We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $\mathcal L_{\alpha}$ on the half-line with a periodic background potential and a perturbation which consists of two parts: a summable potential and the slowly decaying Wigner--von Neumann potential…

Let $\mathfrak{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra and let $A$ be a nonzero positive element of $\mathfrak{M}$. By $\sigma_A(T) $ and $r_A(T)$ we denote the $A$-spectrum and the $A$-spectral radius of $T\in\mathfrak{M}^A$, respectively. In this…

We consider half-line Dirac operators with operator data of Wigner-von Neumann type. If the data is a finite linear combination of Wigner-von Neumann functions, we show absence of singular continuous spectrum and provide an explicit set…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex, separable Hilbert space and $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on $\mathcal{H}$. Given a unitarily-invariant norm $\| \cdot \|_u$ on…

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,…

Let $\Phi$ be a unital positive linear map and let $A$ be a positive invertible operator. We prove that there exist partial isometries $U$ and $V$ such that \[ |\Phi(f(A))\Phi(A)\Phi(g(A))|\leq U^*\Phi(f(A)Ag(A))U \] and…

Let $T:D(T)\rightarrow H_2$ be a densely defined closed operator with domain $D(T)\subset H_1$. We say $T$ to be absolutely minimum attaining if for every closed subspace $M$ of $H_1$, the restriction operator $T|_M:D(T)\cap M\rightarrow…

Suppose $\mathscr M$ and $\mathscr N$ are von Neumann algebras. Two operators $A$ and $B$ in $\mathscr M$ are said to be orthogonal if $A^*B=0$, meaning their ranges are orthogonal. Let $\varphi\colon\mathscr M\to\mathscr N$ be a map. We…

A famous question of Halmos asks whether every operator on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space is a norm limit of reducible operators. In [30], Voiculescu gave this problem an affirmative answer by his remarkable non-commutative…
