We present some generalized Jensen type operator inequalities involving sequences of self-adjoint operators. Among other things, we prove that if f : [0;1) → ℝ is a continuous convex function with f(0) ≤ 0, then [...] for all operators Ci such that [...] (i=1 , ... , n) for some scalar M ≥ 0, where [...] and [...]

Let X, Y be Banach spaces and let (X,Y) be the space of bounded linear operators from X to Y. We develop the theory of double operator integrals on (X,Y) and apply this theory to obtain commutator estimates of the form $\left|\right|f\left(B\right)S-{Sf\left(A\right)\left|\right|}_{(X,Y)}\le const\left|\right|BS-{SA\left|\right|}_{(X,Y)}$ for a large class of functions f, where A ∈ (X), B ∈ (Y) are scalar type operators and S ∈ (X,Y). In particular, we establish this estimate for f(t): = |t| and for diagonalizable operators on $X={\ell }_p$ and $Y={\ell }_q$ for p < q. We also study the estimate above in the setting of Banach ideals...

We show that the Moore-Penrose inverse of an operator T is idempotent if and only if it is a product of two projections. Furthermore, if P and Q are two projections, we find a relation between the entries of the associated operator matrix of PQ and the entries of associated operator matrix of the Moore-Penrose inverse of PQ in a certain orthogonal decomposition of Hilbert C*-modules.

We study analytic models of operators of class $C_{·0}$ with natural positivity assumptions. In particular, we prove that for an m-hypercontraction $T\in C_{·0}$ on a Hilbert space , there exist Hilbert spaces and ⁎ and a partially isometric multiplier θ ∈ ℳ (H²(),A²ₘ(⁎)) such that ${\cong }_{\theta }=A²ₘ\left(⁎\right)\ominus \theta H²\left(\right)$ and $T\cong P_{{}_{\theta }}{M}_z{|}_{{}_{\theta }}$, where A²ₘ(⁎) is the ⁎-valued weighted Bergman space and H²() is the -valued Hardy space over the unit disc . We then proceed to study analytic models for doubly commuting n-tuples of operators and investigate their applications...

Let G be a locally compact group, A(G) its Fourier algebra and L¹(G) the space of Haar integrable functions on G. We study the Segal algebra S¹A(G) = A(G) ∩ L¹(G) in A(G). It admits an operator space structure which makes it a completely contractive Banach algebra. We compute the dual space of S¹A(G). We use it to show that the restriction operator ${u\mapsto u|}_H:S¹A\left(G\right)\to A\left(H\right)$, for some non-open closed subgroups H, is a surjective complete quotient map. We also show that if N is a non-compact closed subgroup, then the averaging...

In questo lavoro, motivati dalla teoria di Fredholm in spazi di Banach e dalla cosiddetta teoria degli ideali di operatori nel senso di Pietsch, viene definito un nuovo concetto di semigruppo di operatori. Questa nuova definizione include quella di molte classi di operatori già studiate in letteratura, come la classe degli operatori di semi-Fredholm, quella degli operatori tauberiani ed altre ancora. Inoltre permette un nuovo ed unificante approccio ad una serie di problemi in teoria degli operatori...

We generalize an important class of Banach spaces, the M-embedded Banach spaces, to the non-commutative setting of operator spaces. The one-sided M-embedded operator spaces are the operator spaces which are one-sided M-ideals in their second dual. We show that several properties from the classical setting, like the stability under taking subspaces and quotients, unique extension property, Radon-Nikodým property and many more, are retained in the non-commutative setting. We also discuss the dual...

Let $\left(T_t\right)$ be a C₀ semigroup with generator A on a Banach space X and let be an operator ideal, e.g. the class of compact, Hilbert-Schmidt or trace class operators. We show that the resolvent R(λ,A) of A belongs to if and only if the integrated semigroup $S_t:={\int }_0^t{T}_{s}ds$ belongs to . For analytic semigroups, $S_t\in$ implies $T_t\in$, and in this case we give precise estimates for the growth of the -norm of $T_t$ (e.g. the trace of $T_t$) in terms of the resolvent growth and the imbedding D(A) ↪ X.
