Ascent and descent for sets of operators

Derek Kitson (2009)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We extend the notion of ascent and descent for an operator acting on a vector space to sets of operators. If the ascent and descent of a set are both finite then they must be equal and give rise to a canonical decomposition of the space. Algebras of operators, unions of sets and closures of sets are treated. As an application we construct a Browder joint spectrum for commuting tuples of bounded operators which is compact-valued and has the projection property.

Notes on q-deformed operators

Schôichi Ôta, Franciszek Hugon Szafraniec (2004)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The paper concerns operators of deformed structure like q-normal and q-hyponormal operators with the deformation parameter q being a positive number different from 1. In particular, an example of a q-hyponormal operator with empty spectrum is given, and q-hyponormality is characterized in terms of some operator inequalities.

Diagonals of Self-adjoint Operators with Finite Spectrum

Marcin Bownik, John Jasper (2015)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Given a finite set X⊆ ℝ we characterize the diagonals of self-adjoint operators with spectrum X. Our result extends the Schur-Horn theorem from a finite-dimensional setting to an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space analogous to Kadison's theorem for orthogonal projections (2002) and the second author's result for operators with three-point spectrum (2013).

Polaroid type operators and compact perturbations

Chun Guang Li, Ting Ting Zhou (2014)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

A bounded linear operator T acting on a Hilbert space is said to be polaroid if each isolated point in the spectrum is a pole of the resolvent of T. There are several generalizations of the polaroid property. We investigate compact perturbations of polaroid type operators. We prove that, given an operator T and ε > 0, there exists a compact operator K with ||K|| < ε such that T + K is polaroid. Moreover, we characterize those operators for which a certain polaroid type property...

Exponentials of normal operators and commutativity of operators: a new approach

Mohammed Hichem Mortad (2011)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We present a new approach to the question of when the commutativity of operator exponentials implies that of the operators. This is proved in the setting of bounded normal operators on a complex Hilbert space. The proofs are based on some results on similarities by Berberian and Embry as well as the celebrated Fuglede theorem.

On λ-commuting operators

John B. Conway, Gabriel Prǎjiturǎ (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

For a scalar λ, two operators T and S are said to λ-commute if TS = λST. In this note we explore the pervasiveness of the operators that λ-commute with a compact operator by characterizing the closure and the interior of the set of operators with this property.

Backward extensions of hyperexpansive operators

Zenon J. Jabłoński, Il Bong Jung, Jan Stochel (2006)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The concept of k-step full backward extension for subnormal operators is adapted to the context of completely hyperexpansive operators. The question of existence of k-step full backward extension is solved within this class of operators with the help of an operator version of the Levy-Khinchin formula. Some new phenomena in comparison with subnormal operators are found and related classes of operators are discussed as well.
