Dimensions of components of tensor products of representations of linear groups with applications to Beurling-Fourier algebras

Benoît Collins, Hun Hee Lee, Piotr Śniady (2014)

Studia Mathematica

We give universal upper bounds on the relative dimensions of isotypic components of a tensor product of representations of the linear group GL(n) and universal upper bounds on the relative dimensions of irreducible components of a tensor product of representations of the special linear group SL(n). This problem is motivated by harmonic analysis problems, and we give some applications to the theory of Beurling-Fourier algebras.

Direct limit of matrix order unit spaces

J. V. Ramani, Anil K. Karn, Sunil Yadav (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

The notion of ℱ-approximate order unit norm for ordered ℱ-bimodules is introduced and characterized in terms of order-theoretic and geometric concepts. Using this notion, we characterize the inductive limit of matrix order unit spaces.

Direct sums of irreducible operators

Jun Shen Fang, Chun-Lan Jiang, Pei Yuan Wu (2003)

Studia Mathematica

It is known that every operator on a (separable) Hilbert space is the direct integral of irreducible operators, but not every one is the direct sum of irreducible ones. We show that an operator can have either finitely or uncountably many reducing subspaces, and the former holds if and only if the operator is the direct sum of finitely many irreducible operators no two of which are unitarily equivalent. We also characterize operators T which are direct sums of irreducible operators in terms of the...

Dirichlet problems without convexity assumption

Aleksandra Orpel (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We deal with the existence of solutions of the Dirichlet problem for sublinear and superlinear partial differential inclusions considered as generalizations of the Euler-Lagrange equation for a certain integral functional without convexity assumption. We develop a duality theory and variational principles for this problem. As a consequence of the duality theory we give a numerical version of the variational principles which enables approximation of the solution for our problem.

Dirichlet series and uniform ergodic theorems for linear operators in Banach spaces

Takeshi Yoshimoto (2000)

Studia Mathematica

We study the convergence properties of Dirichlet series for a bounded linear operator T in a Banach space X. For an increasing sequence μ = μ n of positive numbers and a sequence f = f n of functions analytic in neighborhoods of the spectrum σ(T), the Dirichlet series for f n ( T ) is defined by D[f,μ;z](T) = ∑n=0∞ e-μnz fn(T), z∈ ℂ. Moreover, we introduce a family of summation methods called Dirichlet methods and study the ergodic properties of Dirichlet averages for T in the uniform operator topology.

Discontinuity of the Fuglede-Kadison determinant on a group von Neumann algebra

Benjamin Küter (2014)

Communications in Mathematics

We show that in contrast to the case of the operator norm topology on the set of regular operators, the Fuglede-Kadison determinant is not continuous on isomorphisms in the group von Neumann algebra 𝒩 ( ) with respect to the strong operator topology. Moreover, in the weak operator topology the determinant is not even continuous on isomorphisms given by multiplication with elements of [ ] . Finally, we define T 𝒩 ( ) such that for each λ the operator T + λ · id l 2 ( ) is a self-adjoint weak isomorphism of determinant class but...
