On inequalities for powers of linear operators and for quadratic forms
SynopsisLetHbe a Hilbert space in which a symmetric operatorSwith a dense domainDsis given and letShave a finite deficiency index (r, s). This paper contains a necessary and sufficient condition for validity of the following inequalities of Kolmogorov typeand a method for calculating the best possible constantsCn,m(S).Moreover, let φ be a symmetric bilinear functional with a dense domainDφsuch thatDs⊂Dφand φ(f, g) = (Sf, g) for allf∈Ds,g∈Dφ. A necessary and sufficient condition for validity of the inequalityas well as a method for calculating the best possible constantKare obtained. Then an analogous approach is worked out in order to obtain the best possible additive inequalities of the formThe paper is concluded by establishing the best possible constants in the inequalitieswhereTis an arbitrary dissipative operator. The theorems are extensions of the results of Ju. I. Ljubič, W. N. Everitt, and T. Kato.
