Automorphisms and derivations on a universally complete complex -algebra.
Let be a non-zero positive vector of a Banach lattice , and let be a positive linear operator on with the spectral radius . We find some groups of assumptions on , and under which the inequalities hold. An application of our results gives simple upper and lower bounds for the spectral radius of a product of positive operators in terms of positive eigenvectors corresponding to the spectral radii of given operators. We thus extend the matrix result obtained by Johnson and Bru which...
Let with a,b ≥ 2. We consider the C₀-semigroups generated by this operator on the spaces of continuous functions, respectively square integrable functions. The connection between these semigroups together with suitable approximation processes is studied. Also, some qualitative and quantitative properties are derived.
The main meaning of the common extension for two linear operators is the following: given two vector subspaces G₁ and G₂ in a vector space (respectively an ordered vector space) E, a Dedekind complete ordered vector space F and two (positive) linear operators T₁: G₁ → F, T₂: G₂ → F, when does a (positive) linear common extension L of T₁, T₂ exist? First, L will be defined on span(G₁ ∪ G₂). In other results, formulated in the line of the Hahn-Banach extension theorem, the common...
We provide sufficient and necessary conditions for asymptotic periodicity of iterates of strong Feller stochastic operators.
Let X be a Banach space and T ∈ L(X), the space of all bounded linear operators on X. We give a list of necessary and sufficient conditions for the uniform stability of T, that is, for the convergence of the sequence of iterates of T in the uniform topology of L(X). In particular, T is uniformly stable iff for some p ∈ ℕ, the restriction of the pth iterate of T to the range of I-T is a Banach contraction. Our proof is elementary: It uses simple facts from linear algebra, and the Banach Contraction...
A map φ: Mₘ(ℂ) → Mₙ(ℂ) is decomposable if it is of the form φ = φ₁ + φ₂ where φ₁ is a CP map while φ₂ is a co-CP map. It is known that if m = n = 2 then every positive map is decomposable. Given an extremal unital positive map φ: M₂(ℂ) → M₂(ℂ) we construct concrete maps (not necessarily unital) φ₁ and φ₂ which give a decomposition of φ. We also show that in most cases this decomposition is unique.
Given a positive Banach-Saks operator T between two Banach lattices E and F, we give sufficient conditions on E and F in order to ensure that every positive operator dominated by T is Banach-Saks. A counterexample is also given when these conditions are dropped. Moreover, we deduce a characterization of the Banach-Saks property in Banach lattices in terms of disjointness.
We recall from [9] the definition and properties of an algebra cone C of a real or complex Banach algebra A. It can be shown that C induces on A an ordering which is compatible with the algebraic structure of A. The Banach algebra A is then called an ordered Banach algebra. An important property that the algebra cone C may have is that of normality. If C is normal, then the order structure and the topology of A are reconciled in a certain way. Ordered Banach algebras have interesting spectral properties....
It is proved that every positive Banach-Saks operator T: E → F between Banach lattices E and F factors through a Banach lattice with the Banach-Saks property, provided that F has order continuous norm. By means of an example we show that this order continuity condition cannot be removed. In addition, some domination results, in the Dodds-Fremlin sense, are obtained for the class of Banach-Saks operators.
