On a Weyl-von Neumann type theorem for antilinear self-adjoint operators

Santtu Ruotsalainen (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Antilinear operators on a complex Hilbert space arise in various contexts in mathematical physics. In this paper, an analogue of the Weyl-von Neumann theorem for antilinear self-adjoint operators is proved, i.e. that an antilinear self-adjoint operator is the sum of a diagonalizable operator and of a compact operator with arbitrarily small Schatten p-norm. On the way, we discuss conjugations and their properties. A spectral integral representation for antilinear self-adjoint operators...

On Woronowicz's approach to the Tomita-Takesaki theory

László Zsidó (2012)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The Tomita-Takesaki Theory is very complex and can be contemplated from different points of view. In the decade 1970-1980 several approaches to it appeared, each one seeking to attain more transparency. One of them was the paper of S. L. Woronowicz "Operator systems and their application to the Tomita-Takesaki theory" that appeared in 1979. Woronowicz's approach allows a particularly precise insight into the nature of the Tomita-Takesaki Theory and in this paper we present a brief, but...

Commutants of von Neumann correspondences and duality of Eilenberg-Watts theorems by Rieffel and by Blecher

Michael Skeide (2006)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The category of von Neumann correspondences from 𝓑 to 𝓒 (or von Neumann 𝓑-𝓒-modules) is dual to the category of von Neumann correspondences from 𝓒' to 𝓑' via a functor that generalizes naturally the functor that sends a von Neumann algebra to its commutant and back. We show that under this duality, called commutant, Rieffel's Eilenberg-Watts theorem (on functors between the categories of representations of two von Neumann algebras) switches into Blecher's Eilenberg-Watts theorem...
