Ｐ型基和良性有界算子

在自反Ｂａｎａｃｈ空间上一个有界线性算子是（Ｂ）型良性有界的当且仅当它的共扼算子也是（Ｂ）型的。但在非自反Ｂａｎａｃｈ空间上这种性质不成立。本文证明在一大类非自反Ｂａｎａｃｈ空间上总存在一个（Ｂ）型良性有界线性算子，它的共扼算子不是（Ｂ）型的。同时也证明了在具有基的Ｂａｎａｃｈ空间上，任何Ｐ型基序列一定有一个子序弄能够扩张成该空间的一个基。     

Well-Boundedness of Sums and Products of Operators

A sufficient condition is given under which the sum, productand indeed any polynomial combination of a well-bounded operatorand a commuting real scalar-type spectral operator is well-bounded.This generalizes a result of Gillespie for Hilbert space operators.It is shown in particular that if X is a UMD space, then thesum of finitely many commuting real scalar-type spectral operatorsacting on X is a well-bounded operator (a result which failson general reflexive Banach spaces).

Some Open Problems and Conjectures Associated with the Invariant Subspace Problem

There is a subtle difference as far as the invariant subspace problem is concerned for operators acting on real Banach spaces and operators acting on complex Banach spaces. For instance, the classical hyperinvariant subspace theorem of Lomonosov [Funktsional. Anal. nal. i Prilozhen 7(3)(1973), 55–56. (Russian)], while true for complex Banach spaces is false for real Banach spaces. When one starts with a bounded operator on a real Banach space and then considers some “complexification technique” to extend the operator to a complex Banach space, there seems to be no pattern that indicates any connection between the invariant subspaces of the “real” operator and those of its “complexifications.” The purpose of this note is to examine two complexification methods of an operator T acting on a real Banach space and present some questions regarding the invariant subspaces of T and those of its complexifications Mathematics Subject Classification 1991: 47A15, 47C05, 47L20, 46B99 Y.A.

Minimal convex functions bounded below by the duality product

It is well known that the Fitzpatrick function of a maximal monotone operator is minimal in the class of convex functions bounded below by the duality product. Our main result establishes that, in the setting of reflexive Banach spaces, the converse also holds; that is, every such minimal function is the Fitzpatrick function of some maximal monotone operator. Whether this converse also holds in a nonreflexive Banach space remains an open problem.

     

Evolution semigroups and time operators on Banach spaces

We present new general methods to obtain shift representation of evolution semigroups defined on Banach spaces. We introduce the notion of time operator associated with a generalized shift on a Banach space and give some conditions under which time operators can be defined on an arbitrary Banach space. We also tackle the problem of scaling of time operators and obtain a general result about the existence of time operators on Banach spaces satisfying some geometric conditions. The last part of the paper contains some examples of explicit constructions of time operators on function spaces.     

Certain classes of sets in Banach spaces and a topological characterization of operators of type RN

We study properties of bounded sets in Banach spaces, connected with the concept of equimeasurability introduced by A. Grothendieck. We introduce corresponding ideals of operators and find characterizations of them in terms of continuity of operators in certain topologies. The following result (Corollary 9) follows from the basic theorems: Let T be a continuous linear operator from a Banach space X to a Banach space Y. The following assertions are equivalent:

1. T is an operator of type RN;
2. for any Banach space Z, for any number p, p > 0, and any p-absolutely summing operator U:Z → X the operator TU is approximately p-Radonifying;
3. for any Banach space Z and any absolutely summing operator U:Z → X the operator TU is approximately 1-Radonifying.

We note that the implication I)?2), is apparently new even if the operator T is weakly compact.     

Compact adjoint operators and approximation properties

This paper is concerned with the space of all compact adjoint operators from dual spaces of Banach spaces into dual spaces of Banach spaces and approximation properties. For some topology on the space of all bounded linear operators from separable dual spaces of Banach spaces into dual spaces of Banach spaces, it is shown that if a bounded linear operator is approximated by a net of compact adjoint operators, then the operator can be approximated by a sequence of compact adjoint operators whose operator norms are less than or equal to the operator norm of the operator. Also we obtain applications of the theory and, in particular, apply the theory to approximation properties.     

Abstract Lebesgue-Radon-Nikodym theorems

Summary In this paper generalizations of the classical Lebesgue-Radon-Nikodym type decomposition of additive set functions are obtained for pairs of vector measures when both measures take values in possibly different Banach spaces. Some applications of these results are made to (i) the representation of wearly compact operators on the spaces of integrable scalar functions relative to a vector measure to an arbitrary Banach space, and (ii) a problem of comparison of measures in inference theory. The abstract conditional expectations of operator valued strongly measurable and integrable random variables on a σ-finite space are briefly treated. Supported, in part, under the NSF Grants GP-1349 and GP-5921.     

Some properties of maximal monotone operators on nonreflexive Banach spaces

Important properties of maximal monotone operators on reflexive Banach spaces remain open questions in the nonreflexive case. The aim of this paper is to investigate some of these questions for the proper subclass of locally maximal monotone operators. (This coincides with the class of maximal monotone operators in reflexive spaces.) Some relationships are established with the maximal monotone operators of dense type, which were introduced by J.-P. Gossez for the same purpose.     

Sum theorems for monotone operators and convex functions

In this paper, we derive sufficient conditions for the sum of two or more maximal monotone operators on a reflexive Banach space to be maximal monotone, and we achieve this without any renorming theorems or fixed-point-related concepts. In the course of this, we will develop a generalization of the uniform boundedness theorem for (possibly nonreflexive) Banach spaces. We will apply this to obtain the Fenchel Duality Theorem for the sum of two or more proper, convex lower semicontinuous functions under the appropriate constraint qualifications, and also to obtain additional results on the relation between the effective domains of such functions and the domains of their subdifferentials. The other main tool that we use is a standard minimax theorem.

Factoring multi-sublinear maps

Using Rademacher type, maximal estimates are established for k-sublinear operators with values in the space of measurable functions. Maurey–Nikishin factorization implies that such operators factor through a weak-type Lebesgue space. This extends known results for sublinear operators and improves some results for bilinear operators. For example, any continuous bilinear operator from a product of type 2 spaces into the space of measurable functions factors through a Banach space. Also included are applications for multilinear translation invariant operators.     

Weaker Constraint Qualifications in Maximal Monotonicity

We give a sufficient condition, weaker than the others known so far, that guarantees that the sum of two maximal monotone operators on a reflexive Banach space is maximal monotone. Then we give a weak constraint qualification assuring the Brézis–Haraux-type approximation of the range of the sum of the subdifferentials of two proper convex lower-semicontinuous functions in nonreflexive Banach spaces, extending and correcting an earlier result due to Riahi.     

Construction of Pathological Maximally Monotone Operators on Non-reflexive Banach Spaces

In this paper, we construct maximally monotone operators that are not of Gossez’s dense-type (D) in many nonreflexive spaces. Many of these operators also fail to possess the Brønsted-Rockafellar (BR) property. Using these operators, we show that the partial inf-convolution of two BC–functions will not always be a BC–function. This provides a negative answer to a challenging question posed by Stephen Simons. Among other consequences, we deduce—in a uniform fashion—that every Banach space which contains an isomorphic copy of the James space \({\ensuremath{\mathbf{J}}}\) or its dual \({\ensuremath{\mathbf{J}}}^{\ast}\), or c ₀ or its dual ?¹, admits a non type (D) operator. The existence of non type (D) operators in spaces containing ?¹ or c ₀ has been proved recently by Bueno and Svaiter.     

Strongly irreducible operators on Banach spaces

This paper firstly discusses the existence of strongly irreducible operators on Banach spaces. It shows that there exist strongly irreducible operators on Banach spaces with w*-separable dual. It also gives some properties of strongly irreducible operators on Banach spaces. In particular, if T is a strongly irreducible operator on an infinite-dimensional Banach space, then T is not of finite rank and T is not an algebraic operator. On Banach spaces with subsymmetric bases, including infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert spaces, it shows that quasisimilarity does not preserve strong irreducibility. In addition, we show that the strong irreducibility of an operator does not imply the strong irreducibility of its conjugate operator, which is not the same as the property in Hilbert spaces.     

Super-Ergodic operators

The aim of this work is to study operators naturally connected to Ergodic operators in infinite-dimensional Banach spaces, such as Uniform-Ergodic, Cesaro-bounded and Power-bounded operators, as well as stable and superstable operators. In particular, super-Ergodic operators are introduced and shown to be strictly between Ergodic and Uniform-Ergodic operators, and that any power bounded operator is super-Ergodic in a superreflexive space. New relationships between these operators are shown, others are proven to be optimal or can be ameliorated according to structural properties of the Banach space, such as the superreflexivity or with unconditional basis.

     

Elementary rotations of operators on regular Banach spaces

In this paper, we prove the existence of an elementary rotation (a Julia operator) for any continuous, linear, adjointable operator in a regular Banach space with inner product. The proof is based on a more general theorem of the author on the existence of an elementary rotation for any linear operator in a category with quadratic splitting. This result is a generalization of a well-known result about the existence of an elementary rotation for any continuous linear operator in a Krein space. The result can be useful for constructing isometric and unitary dilations as well as characteristic functions of continuous linear operators acting in regular Banach spaces with inner product. __________ Translated from Fundamentalnaya i Prikladnaya Matematika, Vol. 12, No. 6, pp. 175–192, 2006.     

A note on banach partial *-algebras

A Banach partial *-algebra is a locally convex partial *-algebra whose total space is a Banach space. A Banach partial *-algebra is said to be of type (B) if it possesses a generating family of multiplier spaces that are also Banach spaces. We describe the basic properties of such objects and display a number of examples, namely L ^p -like function spaces and spaces of operators on Hilbert scales.
