On the star and minus orders on Hilbert space operators

The function , where is Lerch's transcendent, satisfies the following two-dimensional formally self- adjoint second-order hyperbolic differential equation: where . The corresponding differential expression determines a densely defined symmetric operator (the minimal operator) on the Hilbert space , where . We obtain a description of the domains of definition of some symmetric extensions of the minimal operator. We show that formal solutions of the eigenvalue problem for these symmetric extensions are represented by functional series whose structure resembles that of the Fourier series of . We discuss sufficient conditions for these formal solutions to be eigenfunctions of the resulting symmetric differential operators. We also demonstrate a close relationship between the spectral properties of these symmetric differential operators and the distribution of the zeros of some special analytic functions analogous to the Riemann zeta function.

We study orthogonal and symmetric operators in non-Archimedean Hilbert spaces in the connection with p-adic quantization. This quantization describes measurements with finite precision. Symmetric (bounded) operators in the p-adic Hilbert spaces represent physical observables. We study spectral properties of one of the most important quantum operators, namely, the operator of the position (which is represented in the p-adic Hilbert L2-space with respect to the p-adic Gaussian measure). Orthogonal isometric isomorphisms of p-adic Hilbert spaces preserve precisions of measurements. We study properties of orthogonal operators. It is proved that each orthogonal operator in the non-Archimedean Hilbert space is continuous. However, there exist discontinuous operators with the dense domain of definition which preserve the inner product. There also exist nonisometric orthogonal operators. We describe some classes of orthogonal isometric operators and we study some general questions of the theory of non-Archimedean Hilbert spaces (in particular, general connections between topology, norm and inner product).

Let A be a Rickart *-ring and let ≤*,≤♯,≤⊕, and ≤⊕ denote the star, the sharp, the core, and the dual core partial orders in A, respectively. The sets of all b∈A such that a≤b, along with the sets of all b∈A such that b≤a, are characterized, where a∈A is given and where ≤ is one of the partial orders: ≤*, or ≤♯, or ≤⊕, or ≤⊕. Such sets of elements that are above or below a given element under the minus partial order ≤− in a Rickart ring A are also studied. Some recent results of Cvetković-Ilić et al. on partial orders in B(H), the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H, are thus generalized.

Remark on the decay for damped string and beam equations

In order to make this monograph self-contained, we summarize in this chapter some basic definitions and results for unbounded linear operators in a Hilbert space. In Section 1.1, we recall the definitions of C*-algebras and von Neumann algebras. In Section 1.2, we define and investigate the notion of closedness, the closure and the adjoint of an unbounded linear operator in a Hilbert space. Section 1.3 is devoted to the Cayley transform approach to the self-adjointness of a symmetric operator. Section 1.4 deals with the self-adjoint extendability of a symmetric operator with help of the deficiency spaces. In Section 1.5, we extend to unbounded self-adjoint operators the spectral theorem and the functional calculus theorem for bounded self-adjoint operators. Section 1.6 is devoted to Stone’s theorem. In Section 1.7, the polar decomposition of bounded linear operators is extended to closed linear operators. Section 1.8 introduces Nelson’s analytic vector theorem for the selfadjointness of closed symmetric operators. Section 1.9, finally, deals with the form representation theorem and the Friedrichs self-adjoint extension theorem.

On sets of elements in Rickart rings induced by partial orders

The theoretical part of this monograph examines the distribution of the spectrum of operator polynomials, focusing on quadratic operator polynomials with discrete spectra. The second part is devoted to applications. Standard spectral problems in Hilbert spaces are of the form A- I for an operator A, and self-adjoint operators are of particular interest and importance, both theoretically and in terms of applications. A characteristic feature of self-adjoint operators is that their spectra are real, and many spectral problems in theoretical physics and engineering can be described by using them. However, a large class of problems, in particular vibration problems with boundary conditions depending on the spectral parameter, are represented by operator polynomials that are quadratic in the eigenvalue parameter and whose coefficients are self-adjoint operators. The spectra of such operator polynomials are in general no more real, but still exhibit certain patterns. The distribution of these spectra is the main focus of the present volume. For some classes of quadratic operator polynomials, inverse problems are also considered. The connection between the spectra of such quadratic operator polynomials and generalized Hermite-Biehler functions is discussed in detail. Many applications are thoroughly investigated, such as the Regge problem and damped vibrations of smooth strings, Stieltjes strings, beams, star graphs of strings and quantum graphs. Some chapters summarize advanced background material, which is supplemented with detailed proofs. With regard to the reader s background knowledge, only the basic properties of operators in Hilbert spaces and well-known results from complex analysis are assumed

In the first part of this paper we present a representation theorem for the directional derivative of the metric projection operator in an arbitrary Hilbert space. As a consequence of the representation theorem, we present in the second part the development of the theory of projected dynamical systems in infinite dimensional Hilbert space. We show that this development is possible if we use the viable solutions of differential inclusions. We use also pseudomonotone operators.

Let H+n(R) be the cone of all positive semidefinite n x n real matrices. Two of the best known partial orders that were mostly studied on subsets of square complex matrices are the L?wner and the minus partial orders. Motivated by applications in statistics we study these partial orders on H+n(R). We describe the form of all surjective maps on H+ n (R), n > 1, that preserve the L?wner partial order in both directions. We present an equivalent definition of the minus partial order on H+n(R) and also characterize all surjective, additive maps on H+ n (R), n ? 3, that preserve the minus partial order in both directions.

\( \newcommand\norm[1]{\left\lVert#1\right\rVert}\newcommand\normx[1]{\left\Vert#1\right\Vert} \)In this paper several tensorial norm inequalities for continuous functions of selfadjoint operators in Hilbert spaces have been obtained. Multiple inequalities are obtained with variations due to the convexity properties of the mapping $f$$$\norm{(1\otimes B-A\otimes 1)^{-1}[\operatorname{exp}(1\otimes B)-\operatorname{exp}(A\otimes 1)]- \operatorname{exp}\left(\frac{A\otimes 1+1\otimes B}{2}\right)}$$$$\leqslant \norm{1\otimes B-A\otimes 1}^{2}\frac{\norm{f''}_{I,+\infty}}{24}.$$
