Some results on thin sets in a half plane

Howard Lawrence Jackson (1970)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

When one is restricted to a Stolz domain in a half plane we prove that internal thinness of a set at the origin structly implies minimal thinness there. Furthermore this result extends to the half plane itself. We also work out some relations among the concepts of minimal thinness, semi-thinness and finite logarithmic length. Finally we show that a theorem of Ahlfors and Heins can be improved.

Some simple proofs in holomorphic spectral theory

Graham R. Allan (2007)

Banach Center Publications

This paper gives some very elementary proofs of results of Aupetit, Ransford and others on the variation of the spectral radius of a holomorphic family of elements in a Banach algebra. There is also some brief discussion of a notorious unsolved problem in automatic continuity theory.

Subharmonicity in von Neumann algebras

Thomas Ransford, Michel Valley (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Let ℳ be a von Neumann algebra with unit 1 . Let τ be a faithful, normal, semifinite trace on ℳ. Given x ∈ ℳ, denote by μ t ( x ) t 0 the generalized s-numbers of x, defined by μ t ( x ) = inf||xe||: e is a projection in ℳ i with τ ( 1 - e ) ≤ t (t ≥ 0). We prove that, if D is a complex domain and f:D → ℳ is a holomorphic function, then, for each t ≥ 0, λ 0 t l o g μ s ( f ( λ ) ) d s is a subharmonic function on D. This generalizes earlier subharmonicity results of White and Aupetit on the singular values of matrices.

The Berezin transform and operators on spaces of analytic functions

Karel Stroethoff (1997)

Banach Center Publications

In this article we will illustrate how the Berezin transform (or symbol) can be used to study classes of operators on certain spaces of analytic functions, such as the Hardy space, the Bergman space and the Fock space. The article is organized according to the following outline. 1. Spaces of analytic functions 2. Definition and properties Berezin transform 3. Berezin transform and non-compact operators 4. Commutativity of Toeplitz operators 5. Berezin transform and Hankel or Toeplitz operators 6....
