Frames and weak frames for unbounded operators
2020
In 2012 G\u{a}vru\c{t}a introduced the notions of $K$-frame and of atomic system for a linear bounded operator $K$ in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, in order to decompose its range $\mathcal{R}(K)$ with a frame-like expansion. In this article we revisit these concepts for an unbounded and densely defined operator $A:\mathcal{D}(A)\to\mathcal{H}$ in two different ways. In one case we consider a non-Bessel sequence where the coefficient sequence depends continuously on $f\in\mathcal{D}(A)$ with respect to the norm of $\mathcal{H}$. In the other case we consider a Bessel sequence and the coefficient sequence depends continuously on $f\in\mathcal{D}(A)$ with respect to the graph norm of $A$.
Algebras of unbounded operators and physical applications: a survey
2009
After a historical introduction on the standard algebraic approach to quantum mechanics of large systems we review the basic mathematical aspects of the algebras of unbounded operators. After that we discuss in some details their relevance in physical applications.
O* - Dynamical Systems and * - Derivations of Unbounded Operator Algebras
1999
A spatial theory is developed for * - derivations of an algebra of unbounded operators, in terms of the concept of O*-dynamical systems. Three notions of spatiality emerge, depending on the nature of the corresponding generator. Special emphasis is put on O*-dynamical systems generated by one-parameter groups of *-automorphisms and their *-derivations.
Weak commutation relations of unbounded operators and applications
2011
Four possible definitions of the commutation relation $[S,T]=\Id$ of two closable unbounded operators $S,T$ are compared. The {\em weak} sense of this commutator is given in terms of the inner product of the Hilbert space $\H$ where the operators act. Some consequences on the existence of eigenvectors of two number-like operators are derived and the partial O*-algebra generated by $S,T$ is studied. Some applications are also considered.
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 .
Weak commutation relations of unbounded operators: Nonlinear extensions
2013
We continue our analysis of the consequences of the commutation relation $[S,T]=\Id$, where $S$ and $T$ are two closable unbounded operators. The {\em weak} sense of this commutator is given in terms of the inner product of the Hilbert space $\H$ where the operators act. {We also consider what we call, adopting a physical terminology}, a {\em nonlinear} extension of the above commutation relations.
