Ergodic properties of operators in some semi-Hilbertian spaces
2012
This article deals with linear operators T on a complex Hilbert space ℋ, which are bounded with respect to the seminorm induced by a positive operator A on ℋ. The A-adjoint and A 1/2-adjoint of T are considered to obtain some ergodic conditions for T with respect to A. These operators are also employed to investigate the class of orthogonally mean ergodic operators as well as that of A-power bounded operators. Some classes of orthogonally mean ergodic or A-ergodic operators, which come from the theory of generalized Toeplitz operators are considered. In particular, we give an example of an A-ergodic operator (with an injective A) which is not Cesaro ergodic, such that T * is not a quasiaff…
Metric operators, generalized hermiticity and partial inner product spaces
2015
A quasi-Hermitian operator is an operator in a Hilbert space that is similar to its adjoint in some sense, via a metric operator, i.e., a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. Motivated by the recent developments of pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics, we analyze the structure of metric operators, bounded or unbounded, in a Hilbert space. We introduce several generalizations of the notion of similarity between operators and explore to what extent they preserve spectral properties. Next we consider canonical lattices of Hilbert spaces generated by unbounded metric operators. Since such lattices constitute the simplest case of a partial inner product space (PIP space), we can exploit the te…
Metric Operators, Generalized Hermiticity and Lattices of Hilbert Spaces
2015
Pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics (QM) is a recent, unconventional, approach to QM, based on the use of non-self-adjoint Hamiltonians, whose self-adjointness can be restored by changing the ambient Hilbert space, via a so-called metric operator. The PT-symmetric Hamiltonians are usually pseudo-Hermitian operators, a term introduced a long time ago by Dieudonné for characterizing those bounded operators A that satisfy a relation of the form GA = A G, where G is a metric operator, that is, a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. This chapter explores further the structure of unbounded metric operators, in particular, their incidence on similarity. It examines the notion of similarity betw…
Weyl type theorems for bounded linear operators on Banach spaces
2011
In 1909 H. Weyl [59] studied the spectra of all compact linear perturbations of a self-adjoint operator defined on a Hilbert space and found that their intersection consisted precisely of those points of the spectrum where are not isolated eigenvalues of nite multiplicity. Later, the property established by Weyl for self-adjoint operators has been observed for several other classes of operators, for instance hyponormal operators on Hilbert spaces, Toeplitz operators,convolution operators on group algebras, and many other classes of operators ned on Banach spaces . In the literature, a bounded linear operator defined on a Banach space which satisfies this property is said to satisfy Weyl's t…
Some characterizations of operators satisfying a-Browder's theorem
2005
Abstract We characterize the bounded linear operators T defined on Banach spaces satisfying a-Browder's theorem, or a-Weyl's theorem, by means of the discontinuity of some maps defined on certain subsets of C . Several other characterizations are given in terms of localized SVEP, as well as by means of the quasi-nilpotent part, the hyper-kernel or the analytic core of λ I − T .
Homeomorphisms of Finite Distortion
2013
In this chapter we establish the optimal regularity of the inverse mapping in higher dimensions and optimal Sobolev regularity for composites. Moreover, we establish optimal moduli of continuity for mappings in our classes and we discuss orientation preservation and approximation of Sobolev homeomorphisms.
Bounded weak solutions to superlinear Dirichlet double phase problems
2023
AbstractIn this paper we study a Dirichlet double phase problem with a parametric superlinear right-hand side that has subcritical growth. Under very general assumptions on the data, we prove the existence of at least two nontrivial bounded weak solutions to such problem by using variational methods and critical point theory. In contrast to other works we do not need to suppose the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition.
Finite-Timel1-Gain Control for Positive Switched Systems with Time-Varying Delay via Delta Operator Approach
2014
This paper is concerned with the problem of finite-timel1-gain control for positive switched systems with time-varying delay via delta operator approach. Firstly, sufficient conditions which can guarantee thel1-gain finite-time boundedness of the underlying system are given by using the average dwell time approach and constructing an appropriate copositive type Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional in delta domain. Moreover, the obtained conditions can unify some previously suggested relevant results seen in literature of both continuous and discrete systems into the delta operator framework. Then, based on the results obtained, a state feedback controller is designed to ensure that the resulting …
Robust H∞ reliable control for delta operator switched systems with time-varying delays under asynchronous switching
2014
The problem of robust H∞ reliable control for a class of delta operator switched systems with time-varying delays and actuator faults under asynchronous switching is considered in this paper. Asynchronous switching means that the switches between the candidate controllers and system modes are asynchronous. Based on the average dwell time approach and delta operator theory, a state feedback controller is designed such that the closed-loop system is exponentially stable with H∞ performance in the presence of actuator faults. The obtained results are formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, a numerical example is provided to demonstrate explicitly the feasibility …
Stability and -Gain Control of Positive Switched Systems with Time-Varying Delays via Delta Operator Approach
2013
This paper investigates the problems of stability and -gain controller design for positive switched systems with time-varying delays via delta operator approach. The purpose is to design a switching signal and a state feedback controller such that the resulting closed-loop system is exponentially stable with -gain performance. Based on the average dwell time approach, a sufficient condition for the existence of an -gain controller for the considered system is established by constructing an appropriate copositive type Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional in delta domain. Moreover, the obtained conditions can unify some previously suggested relevant methods in the literature of both continuous- and…
