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).     

On weak positive supercyclicity

A bounded linear operator T on a separable complex Banach space X is called weakly supercyclic if there exists a vector x ∈ X such that the projective orbit {λT ⁿ x: n ∈ ℕ λ ∈ ℂ} is weakly dense in X. Among other results, it is proved that an operator T such that σ _p (T ^*) = 0, is weakly supercyclic if and only if T is positive weakly supercyclic, that is, for every supercyclic vector x ∈ X, only considering the positive projective orbit: {rT ⁿ x: n ∈ ℂ, r ∈ ℝ₊} we obtain a weakly dense subset in X. As a consequence it is established the existence of non-weakly supercyclic vectors (non-trivial) for positive operators defined on an infinite dimensional separable complex Banach space.

Differential sobordination and Bazilevič functions

LetM(z)=z ⁿ +…,N(z)=z ⁿ +… be analytic in the unit disc Δ and let λ(z)=N(z)/zN′(z). The classical result of Sakaguchi-Libera shows that Re(M′(z)/N′(z))<0 implies Re(M(z)/N(z))>0 in Δ whenever Re(λ(z))>0 in Δ. This can be expressed in terms of differential subordination as follows: for anyp analytic in Δ, withp(0)=1,p(z)+λ(z)zp′(z)<1+z/1−z impliesp(z)<1+z/1−z, for Reλ(z)>0,z∈Δ. In this paper we determine different type of general conditions on λ(z),h(z) and ϕ(z) for which one hasp(z)+λ(z)zp′(z)<h(z) impliesp(z)<ϕ(z)<h(z) z∈Δ. Then we apply the above implication to obtain new theorems for some classes of normalized analytic funotions. In particular we give a sufficient condition for an analytic function to be starlike in Δ.

Additive Maps Preserving Similarity of Operators on Banach Spaces

Let X be an infinite-dimensional complex Banach space and denote by B（X） the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on X. It is shown that a surjective additive map Φ from B（X） onto itself preserves similarity in both directions if and only if there exist a scalar c, a bounded invertible linear or conjugate linear operator A and a similarity invariant additive functional ψ on B（X） such that either Φ（T） = cATA^-1 ＋ ψ（T）I for all T, or Φ（T） = cAT＊A^-1 ＋ ψ（T）I for all T. In the case where X has infinite multiplicity, in particular, when X is an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, the above similarity invariant additive functional ψ is always zero.     

Weyl’s theorem for totally hereditarily normaloid operators

A Banach space operatorT ∈B(χ) is said to behereditarily normaloid, denotedT ∈ ℋN, if every part ofT is normaloid;T ∈ ℋN istotally hereditarily normaloid, denotedT ∈ ℑHN, if every invertible part ofT is also normaloid. Class ℑHN is large; it contains a number of the commonly considered classes of operators. The operatorT isalgebraically totally hereditarily normaloid, denotedT ∈a — ℑHN, both non-constant polynomialp such thatp(T) ∈ ℑHN. For operatorsT ∈a − ℑHN, bothT andT* satisfy Weyl’s theorem; if also either ind(T−μ)≥0 or ind(T−μ)≤0 for all complexμ such thatT−μ is Fredholm, thenf(T) andf(T*) satisfy Weyl’s theorem for all analytic functionsf ∈ ℋ(σ(T)). For operatorsT ∈a — ℑHN such thatT has SVEP,T* satisfiesa-Weyl’s theorem.     

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.

The continuity of superposition operators on some sequence spaces defined by moduli

Let λ and μ be solid sequence spaces. For a sequence of modulus functions Φ = (ϕ k) let λ(Φ) = {x = (x _k ): (ϕk(|x _k |)) ∈ λ}. Given another sequence of modulus functions Ψ = (ψ_k), we characterize the continuity of the superposition operators P _f from λ(Φ) into μ (Ψ) for some Banach sequence spaces λ and μ under the assumptions that the moduli ϕk (k ∈ ℕ) are unbounded and the topologies on the sequence spaces λ(Φ) and μ(Ψ) are given by certain F-norms. As applications we consider superposition operators on some multiplier sequence spaces of Maddox type. This research was supported by Estonian Science Foundation Grant 5376.     

Weyl’s Theorem for Algebraically Quasi-class A Operators

If T or T* is an algebraically quasi-class A operator acting on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space then we prove that Weyl’s theorem holds for f(T) for every f ∈ H(σ(T)), where H(σ(T)) denotes the set of all analytic functions in an open neighborhood of σ(T). Moreover, if T* is algebraically quasi-class A then a-Weyl’s theorem holds for f(T). Also, if T or T* is an algebraically quasi-class A operator then we establish that the spectral mapping theorems for the Weyl spectrum and the essential approximate point spectrum of T for every f ∈ H(σ(T)), respectively.

Uniqueness theorems for Korenblum type spaces

For a scale of spaces X of functions analytic in the unit disc, including the Korenblum space, and for some natural families ɛ of uniqueness subsets for X, we describe minorants for (X, ɛ), that is, non-decreasing functions M: (0, 1) → (0, ∞) such that f ∈ X, E ∈ ɛ, and log |f(z)| ≤ −M(|z|) on E imply f = 0. We give an application of this result to approximation by simple fractions with restrictions on the coefficients. The first author was partially supported by the ANR project DYNOP.

A descent method for submodular function minimization

We show a descent method for submodular function minimization based on an oracle for membership in base polyhedra. We assume that for any submodular function f: ?→R on a distributive lattice ?⊆2 ^V with ?,V∈? and f(?)=0 and for any vector x∈R ^V where V is a finite nonempty set, the membership oracle answers whether x belongs to the base polyhedron associated with f and that if the answer is NO, it also gives us a set Z∈? such that x(Z)>f(Z). Given a submodular function f, by invoking the membership oracle O(|V|²) times, the descent method finds a sequence of subsets Z ₁,Z ₂,···,Z _k of V such that f(Z ₁)>f(Z ₂)>···>f(Z _k )=min{f(Y) | Y∈?}, where k is O(|V|²). The method furnishes an alternative framework for submodular function minimization if combined with possible efficient membership algorithms.

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）.     

A remark on the range of elementary operators

Let L(H) denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a separable infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space H into itself. Given A ∈ L(H), we define the elementary operator Δ _A : L(H) → L(H) by Δ _A (X) = AXA − X. In this paper we study the class of operators A ∈ L(H) which have the following property: ATA = T implies AT*A = T* for all trace class operators T ∈ C ₁(H). Such operators are termed generalized quasi-adjoints. The main result is the equivalence between this character and the fact that the ultraweak closure of the range of Δ _A is closed under taking adjoints. We give a characterization and some basic results concerning generalized quasi-adjoints operators.

On quasi-similarity of subnormal operators

For a compact subset K in the complex plane, let Rat(K) denote the set of the rational functions with poles off K. Given a finite positive measure with support contained in K, let R2(K,v) denote the closure of Rat(K) in L2(v) and let Sv denote the operator of multiplication by the independent variable z on R2(K, v), that is, Svf = zf for every f∈R2(K, v). SupposeΩis a bounded open subset in the complex plane whose complement has finitely many components and suppose Rat(Ω) is dense in the Hardy space H2(Ω). Letσdenote a harmonic measure forΩ. In this work, we characterize all subnormal operators quasi-similar to Sσ, the operators of the multiplication by z on R2(Ω,σ). We show that for a given v supported onΩ, Sv is quasi-similar to Sσif and only if v/■Ω■σ and log(dv/dσ)∈L1(σ). Our result extends a well-known result of Clary on the unit disk.     

Hankel operators in Schatten ideals

We study membership to Schatten ideals S _E , associated with a monotone Riesz–Fischer space E, for the Hankel operators H _f defined on the Hardy space H ²(∂D). The conditions are expressed in terms of regularity of its symbol: we prove that H _f ∈S _E if and only if f∈B _E , the Besov space associated with a monotone Riesz–Fischer space E(dλ) over the measure space (D,dλ) and the main tool is the interpolation of operators.

The riesz turndown collar theorem giving an asymptotic estimate of the powers of an operator under the ritt condition

For Banach space operatorsT satisfying the Tadmor-Ritt condition ‖(zI−T)⁻¹‖≤C|z−1|⁻¹, |z|>1, we show how to use the Riesz turndown collar theorem to estimate sup _n≥0‖T ⁿ‖. A similar estimate is shown for lim sup _n ‖T ⁿ‖ in terms of the Ritt constantM=lim sup _z→1‖(1−z)(zI−T)⁻¹‖. We also obtain an estimate of the functional calculus for these operators proving, in particular, that ‖f(T)‖≤C _q‖f‖ _Mult , where ‖·‖ _Mult stands for the multiplier norm of the Cauchy-Stieltjes integrals over a Lusin type cone domain depending onC and a parameterq, 0<q<1. Notation.D denotes the open unit disc of the complex plane,D={z∈ℂ:|z|<1}, andT={z∈ℂ:|z|=1} is the unit circle.H ^∞ is the Banach algebra of bounded analytic functions onD equipped with the supremum norm ‖.‖_∞.
