On derivations of algebras with involution

Summary Let X be a complex Hilbert space, let L(X) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on X, and let A(X) ⊂ L(X) be a standard operator algebra, which is closed under the adjoint operation. Suppose there exists a linear mapping D: A(X) → L(X) satisfying the relation D(AA*A) = D(A) A*A + AD(A*)A + AA*D(A), for all A ∈ A(X). In this case D is of the form D(A) = AB-BA, for all A∈ A(X) and some B ∈ L(X), which means that D is a derivation. We apply this result to semisimple H*-algebras.     

A generalization of peripherally-multiplicative surjections between standard operator algebras

Let A and B be standard operator algebras on Banach spaces X and Y, respectively. The peripheral spectrum σ_π (T) of T is defined by σ_π (T) = z ∈ σ(T): |z| = max_w∈σ(T) |w|. If surjective (not necessarily linear nor continuous) maps φ, ϕ: A → B satisfy σ_π (φ(S)ϕ(T)) = σ_π (ST) for all S; T ∈ A, then φ and ϕ are either of the form φ(T) = A ₁ TA ₂ ⁻¹ and ϕ(T) = A ₂ TA ₁ ⁻¹ for some bijective bounded linear operators A ₁; A ₂ of X onto Y, or of the form φ(T) = B ₁ T*B ₂ ⁻¹ and ϕ(T) = B ₂ T*B ⁻¹ for some bijective bounded linear operators B ₁;B ₂ of X* onto Y.      

An algebraic invariant for Jordan automorphisms on β(<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>): The set of idempotents

Let H be an infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space. Denote by B(H) the algebra of all bounded linear operators on H, and by I(H) the set of all idempotents in B(H). Suppose that Φ is a surjective map from B(H) onto itself. If for every λ ∈ -1,1,2,3, and A, B ∈ B(H),A-λB ∈I(H) ⇔ Φ(A) -λΦ(B) ∈I(H, then Φ is a Jordan ring automorphism, i.e. there exists a continuous invertible linear or conjugate linear operator T on H such that Φ(A) = TAT ^-1 for all A ∈ B(H), or Φ(A) = TA*T ^-1 for all A ∈ B(H); if, in addition, A-iB ∈I(H)⇔ Φ(A)-iΦ(B) ∈I(H), here i is the imaginary unit, then Φ is either an automorphism or an anti-automorphism.

A new characterization of Anderson’s inequality in <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Subscript>1</Subscript>-classes

Let ℋ be a separable infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space, and let ℒ(H) denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators on ℋ into itself. Let A = (A ₁, A ₂,..., A _n), B = (B ₁, B ₂,..., B _n) be n-tuples of operators in ℒ(H); we define the elementary operators Δ _A,B : ℒ(H) ↦ ℒ(H) by

On Operators Satisfying T＊｜T2｜T≥ T＊｜T＊｜2T

Let T be a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space H. In this paper we introduce a new class denoted by l-＊-A, of operators satisfying T＊｜T2｜T≥ T＊｜T＊｜2T, and we prove the basic properties of these operators. Using these results, we also prove that if T or T＊ ∈l-＊-A, then w（f（T）） = f（w（T））, σea（f（T）） = f（σea（T）） for every f C H（σ（T））, where g（σ（T）） denotes the set of all analytic functions on an open neighborhood of σ（T）.     

Nonlinear Preserver Problems on B（H）

Let H be a complex Hilbert space of dimension greater than 2, and B(H) denote the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on H. For A, B ∈ B(H), define the binary relation A ≤* B by A*A = A*B and AA* = AB*. Then (B(H), “≤*”) is a partially ordered set and the relation “≤*” is called the star order on B(H). Denote by Bs(H) the set of all self-adjoint operators in B(H). In this paper, we first characterize nonlinear continuous bijective maps on B _s (H) which preserve the star order in both directions. We characterize also additive maps (or linear maps) on B(H) (or nest algebras) which are multiplicative at some invertible operator.     

Hereditarily indecomposable Banach algebras of diagonal operators

We provide a characterization of the Banach spaces X with a Schauder basis (e _n ) _n∈ℕ which have the property that the dual space X* is naturally isomorphic to the space L _diag(X) of diagonal operators with respect to (e _n ) _n∈ℕ. We also construct a Hereditarily Indecomposable Banach space $ \mathfrak{X} $ \mathfrak{X} _D with a Schauder basis (e _n ) _n∈ℕ such that $ \mathfrak{X} $ \mathfrak{X} *_D is isometric to L _diag($ \mathfrak{X} $ \mathfrak{X} _D) with these Banach algebras being Hereditarily Indecomposable. Finally, we show that every T ∈ L _diag($ \mathfrak{X} $ \mathfrak{X} _D) is of the form T = λI + K, where K is a compact operator.     

A nilpotent Roth theorem

Let T and S be invertible measure preserving transformations of a probability measure space (X, ℬ, μ). We prove that if the group generated by T and S is nilpotent, then exists in L ²-norm for any u, v∈L ^∞(X, ℬ, μ). We also show that for A∈ℬ with μ(A)>0 one has . By the way of contrast, we bring examples showing that if measure preserving transformations T, S generate a solvable group, then (i) the above limits do not have to exist; (ii) the double recurrence property fails, that is, for some A∈ℬ, μ(A)>0, one may have μ(A∩T _-n A∩S ^{- n} A)=0 for all n∈ℕ. Finally, we show that when T and S generate a nilpotent group of class ≤c, in L ²(X) for all u, v∈L ^∞(X) if and only if T×S is ergodic on X×X and the group generated by T ^-1 S, T ^-2 S ²,..., T ^-c S ^c acts ergodically on X.

Three classes of smooth Banach submanifolds in B(E,F)

Let E, F be two Banach spaces, and B(E, F), Φ(E, F), SΦ(E, F) and R(E,F) be the bounded linear, Fredholm, semi-Frdholm and finite rank operators from E into F, respectively. In this paper, using the continuity characteristics of generalized inverses of operators under small perturbations, we prove the following result Let ∑ be any one of the following sets {T ∈ Φ(E, F) IndexT =const, and dim N(T) = const.}, {T ∈ SΦ(E, F) either dim N(T) = const. ＜ ∞ or codim R(T) = const.＜ ∞} and {T ∈ R(E, F) RankT =const.＜∞}. Then ∑ is a smooth submanifold of B(E, F) with the tangent space TA∑ = {B ∈ B(E,F) BN(A) (∪) R(A)} for any A ∈ ∑. The result is available for the further application to Thom's famous results on the transversility and the study of the infinite dimensional geometry.     

Unitarily covariant maps in approximately finite-dimensional <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis>*-algebras

We consider maps defined on a real space Asa of all self-adjoint elements of a C*-algebra A commuting with the conjugation by unitaries: F(u* au) = u* F(a)u for any a ∈ A _sa, u ∈ (A). In the case where A is a full matrix algebra, there is a functional realization of these maps (in terms of multivariable functions) and analytical properties of these maps can be expressed in terms of corresponding functions. In the present work, these results are generalized to the class of uniformly hyperfinite C*-algebras and to the algebra of all compact operators in a Hilbert space.

The relation of Banach-Alaoglu theorem and Banach-Bourbaki-Kakutani-Šmulian theorem in complete random normed modules to stratification structure

Let (Ω,A,μ) be a probability space, K the scalar field R of real numbers or C of complex numbers,and (S,X) a random normed space over K with base (ω,A,μ). Denote the support of (S,X) by E, namely E is the essential supremum of the set {A ∈ A: there exists an element p in S such that X _p (ω) > 0 for almost all ω in A}. In this paper, Banach-Alaoglu theorem in a random normed space is first established as follows: The random closed unit ball S ^*(1) = {f ∈ S ^*: X ^* _f ⩽ 1} of the random conjugate space (S ^*,X ^*) of (S,X) is compact under the random weak star topology on (S ^*,X ^*) iff E∩A=: {E∩A | A ∈ A} is essentially purely μ-atomic (namely, there exists a disjoint family {A _n : n ∈ N} of at most countably many μ-atoms from E ∩ A such that E = ∪ _n=1^∞ A _n and for each element F in E ∩ A, there is an H in the σ-algebra generated by {A _n : n ∈ N} satisfying μ(FΔH) = 0), whose proof forces us to provide a key topological skill, and thus is much more involved than the corresponding classical case. Further, Banach-Bourbaki-Kakutani-Šmulian (briefly, BBKS) theorem in a complete random normed module is established as follows: If (S,X) is a complete random normed module, then the random closed unit ball S(1) = {p ∈ S: X _p ⩽ 1} of (S,X) is compact under the random weak topology on (S,X) iff both (S,X) is random reflexive and E ∩ A is essentially purely μ-atomic. Our recent work shows that the famous classical James theorem still holds for an arbitrary complete random normed module, namely a complete random normed module is random reflexive iff the random norm of an arbitrary almost surely bounded random linear functional on it is attainable on its random closed unit ball, but this paper shows that the classical Banach-Alaoglu theorem and BBKS theorem do not hold universally for complete random normed modules unless they possess extremely simple stratification structure, namely their supports are essentially purely μ-atomic. Combining the James theorem and BBKS theorem in complete random normed modules leads directly to an interesting phenomenum: there exist many famous classical propositions that are mutually equivalent in the case of Banach spaces, some of which remain to be mutually equivalent in the context of arbitrary complete random normed modules, whereas the other of which are no longer equivalent to another in the context of arbitrary complete random normed modules unless the random normed modules in question possess extremely simple stratification structure. Such a phenomenum is, for the first time, discovered in the course of the development of random metric theory.     

Controllability in a filled domain for the multidimensional wave equation with a singular boundary control

In accordance with the demands of the so-called local approach to inverse problems, the set of “waves” u^f (·, T) is studied, where u^f (x,t) is the solution of the initial boundary-value problem u_tt−Δu=0 in Ω×(0,T), u|_t<0=0, u|_∂Ω×(0,T)=f, and the (singular) control f runs over the class L²((0,T); H^−m (∂Ω)) (m>0). The following result is established. Let Ω^T={x ∈ Ω : dist(x, ∂Ω)<T)} be a subdomain of Ω ⊂ ℝⁿ (diam Ω<∞) filled with waves by a final instant of time t=T, let T_*=inf{T : Ω^T=Ω} be the time of filling the whole domain Ω. We introduce the notation D_m=Dom((−Δ)^m/2), where (−Δ) is the Laplace operator, Dom(−Δ)=H²(Ω)∩H ₀ ¹ (Ω);D_−m=(D_m)′;D_−m(Ω^T)={y∈D_−m:supp y ⋐ Ω^T. If T<T., then the reachable set R _m ^T ={u^t(·, T): f ∈ L₂((0,T), H^−m (∂Ω))} (∀m>0), which is dense in D_−m(Ω^T), does not contain the class C ₀ ^∞ (Ω^T). Examples of a ∈ C ₀ ^∞ , a ∈ R _m ^T , are presented. Translated fromZapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI, Vol. 210, 1994, pp. 7–21. Translated by T. N. Surkova.     

Banach spaces of operators that are complemented in their biduals

Let [A, a] be a normed operator ideal. We say that [A, a] is boundedly weak*-closed if the following property holds: for all Banach spaces X and Y, if T: X → Y** is an operator such that there exists a bounded net (T _i ) _i∈I in A(X, Y) satisfying lim _i 〈y*, T _i x y*〉 for every x ∈ X and y* ∈ Y*, then T belongs to A(X, Y**). Our main result proves that, when [A, a] is a normed operator ideal with that property, A(X, Y) is complemented in its bidual if and only if there exists a continuous projection from Y** onto Y, regardless of the Banach space X. We also have proved that maximal normed operator ideals are boundedly weak*-closed but, in general, both concepts are different.      

Minimum and Surjectivity Moduli Preserving in Banach Space

Let m(T) and q(T) be respectively the minimum and the surjectivity moduli of T∈ℬ(X), where ℬ(X) denotes the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex Banach space X. If there exists a semi-invertible but non-invertible operator in ℬ(X) then, given a surjective unital linear map φ: ℬ(X)⟶ℬ(X), we prove that m(T)=m(φ(T)) for all T∈ℬ(X), if and only if, q(T)=q(φ(T)) for all T∈ℬ(X), if and only if, there exists a bijective isometry U∈ℬ(X) such that φ(T)=UTU ⁻¹ for all T∈ℬ(X).     

Optimal properties of contraction semigroups in banach spaces

Suppose that(T _t )_t>0 is aC ₀ semi-group of contractions on a Banach spaceX, such that there exists a vectorx∈X, ‖x‖=1 verifyingJ ⁻¹(Jx)={x}, whereJ is the duality mapping fromX toP(X ^*). If |<T _t x,f>|→1, whent→+∞ for somef∈X ^*, ‖f‖≤1 thenx is an eigenvector of the generatorA, associated with a purcly imaginary eigenvalue. Because of Lin's example [L], the hypothesis onx∈X is the best possible. If the hypothesisJ ⁻¹(Jx)={x} is not verified, we can prove that ifJx is a singleton and ifJ ⁻¹(Jx) is weakly compact, then if |<T _t x, f>|→1, whent→+∞ for somef∈X ^*, ‖f‖≤1, there existsy∈J ⁻¹(Jx) such thaty is an eigenvector of the generatorA, associated with a purely imaginary eigenvalue. We give also a counter-example in the case whereX is one of the spaces ℓ₁ orL ₁.     

Differentiability of convolutions, integrated semigroups of bounded semi-variation, and the inhomogeneous Cauchy problem

If T = {T (t); t ≥ 0} is a strongly continuous family of bounded linear operators between two Banach spaces X and Y and f ∈ L ¹(0, b, X), the convolution of T with f is defined by . It is shown that T * f is continuously differentiable for all f ∈ C(0, b, X) if and only if T is of bounded semi-variation on [0, b]. Further T * f is continuously differentiable for all f ∈ L ^p (0, b, X) (1 ≤ p < ∞) if and only if T is of bounded semi-p-variation on [0, b] and T(0) = 0. If T is an integrated semigroup with generator A, these respective conditions are necessary and sufficient for the Cauchy problem u′ = Au + f, u(0) = 0, to have integral (or mild) solutions for all f in the respective function vector spaces. A converse is proved to a well-known result by Da Prato and Sinestrari: the generator A of an integrated semigroup is a Hille-Yosida operator if, for some b > 0, the Cauchy problem has integral solutions for all f ∈ L ¹(0, b, X). Integrated semigroups of bounded semi-p-variation are preserved under bounded additive perturbations of their generators and under commutative sums of generators if one of them generates a C ₀-semigroup.

Additive Maps Preserving Nilpotent Operators or Spectral Radius

Let X be a （real or complex） Banach space with dimension greater than 2 and let B0（X） be the subspace of B（X） spanned by all nilpotent operators on X. We get a complete classification of surjective additive maps Ф on B0（X） which preserve nilpotent operators in both directions. In particular, if X is infinite-dimensional, we prove that Ф has the form either Ф（T） = cATA^-1 or Ф（T） = cAT＇A^-1, where A is an invertible bounded linear or conjugate linear operator, c is a scalar, T＇ denotes the adjoint of T. As an application of these results, we show that every additive surjective map on B（X） preserving spectral radius has a similar form to the above with ｜c｜ = 1.     

Some new generalized difference sequence spaces defined by a sequence of moduli

The idea of difference sequence sets X( ) = {x = (x k ) : x ∈ X} with X = l ∞ , c and c 0 was introduced by Kizmaz [12]. In this paper, using a sequence of moduli we define some generalized difference sequence spaces and give some inclusion relations.
