We obtain a new sufficient condition (which may be useful elsewhere) that a compact perturbation of a normal operator be the quasiaffine transform of some normal operator. We also give some applications of this result.
We study a family of commuting selfadjoint operators , which satisfy, together with the operators of the family , semilinear relations , (, , are fixed Borel functions). The developed technique is used to investigate representations of deformations of the universal enveloping algebra U(so(3)), in particular, of some real forms of the Fairlie algebra .
Sets of bounded linear operators , ⊂ ℬ(H) (ℋ is a Hilbert space) are similar if there exists an invertible (in ℬ(H)) operator G such that . A bounded operator is scalar if it is similar to a normal operator. is jointly scalar if there exists a set ⊂ ℬ(H) of normal operators such that and are similar. is separately scalar if all its elements are scalar. Some necessary and sufficient conditions for joint scalarity of a separately scalar abelian set of Hilbert space operators are presented (Theorems...
Kellogg's iterations in the eigenvalue problem are discussed with respect to the boundary spectrum of a linear normal operator.
This work is devoted to generalizing the Lebesgue decomposition and the Radon-Nikodym theorem to Gleason measures. For that purpose we introduce a notion of integral for operators with respect to a Gleason measure. Finally, we give an example showing that the Gleason theorem does not hold in non-separable Hilbert spaces.
In 1971, Allan Sinclair proved that for a hermitian element h of a Banach algebra and λ complex we have ∥λ + h∥ = r(λ + h), where r denotes the spectral radius. Using Levin's subordination theory for entire functions of exponential type, we extend this result locally to a much larger class of generalized spectral operators. This fundamental result improves many earlier results due to Gelfand, Hille, Colojoară-Foiaş, Vidav, Dowson, Dowson-Gillespie-Spain, Crabb-Spain, I. & V. Istrăţescu, Barnes,...
