Joint Resolution

Let A = (Ax)x ∈ Xbe a family of commuting normal operators in a separable Hilbert space H0. Obtaining the spectral expansion of A involves constructing of the corresponding joint resolution of identity E. The support supp E is not, in general, a set of full measure. This causes numerous difficulties, in particular, when proving the projection spectral theorem, i.e. the main theorem about the expansion in generalized joint eigenvectors. In this work, we show that supp E has a full outer measure under the conditions of the projection spectral theorem. Using this result, we simplify the proof of the theorem and refine its assertions.

Finite Dimensional Case

We recall that a bounded linear operator T in a Hilbert space or finite-dimensional unitary space is said to be normal if T commutes with its adjoint operator T*, i.e. TT* = T*T. Most of the proofs given in the literature for the spectral theorem for normal operators, even in the finite-dimensional case, appeal to the corresponding results for Hermitian or unitary operators.

Normal Operators

Let B(H) be the algebra of bounded linear operators on a complex separable Hilbert space H. The problem of operator approximation is to determine how closely each operator T ∈B(H) can be approximated in the norm by operators in a subset L of B(H). This problem is initiated by P. R. Halmo [3] when heconsidered approximating operators by the positive ones. Since then, this problem has been attacked with various classes L: the class of normal operators whose spectrum is included in a fixed nonempty closed subset of the complex plane [4], the classes of unitary operators [6] and invertible operators [1]. The purpose of this paper is to study the approximation by partial isometries.

Necessary And Sufficient

Which bounded linear operator on a complex, separable Hilbert space can be expressed as the product of finitely many normal operators? What is the answer if “normal” is replaced by “Hermitian”, “nonnegative” or “positive”? Recall that an operator T is nonnegative (resp. positive) if (Tx, x) ≧ 0 (resp. (Tx, x) ≥ 0) for any x ≠ 0 in the underlying space. The purpose of this paper is to provide complete answers to these questions.If the space is finite-dimensional, then necessary and sufficient conditions for operators expressible as such are already known. For normal operators, this is easy. By the polar decomposition, every operator is the product of two normal operators. An operator is the product of Hermitian operators if and only if its determinant is real; moreover, in this case, 4 Hermitian operators suffice and 4 is the smallest such number (cf. [10]).

Abelian Von Neumann Algebra

It has been known for some time that one can construct a proof of the spectral theorem for a normal operator on a Hilbert space by applying the Gelfand representation theorem to the Abelian von Neumann algebra generated by the normal operator, and using the fact that the maximal ideal space of an Abelian von Neumann algebra is extremely disconnected. This, in fact, is the spirit of the monograph (8). On the other hand, it is difficult to find in print accounts of the spectral theorem from this viewpoint and, in particular, the treatment in (8) uses a considerable amount of measure theory and does not have the proof of the spectral theorem as its main objective.

One of the most important results of operator theory is the spectral theorem for normal operators. This states that a normal operator (that is, a Hilbert space operator T such that T*T= TT*), can be represented as an integral with respect to a countably additive spectral measure,Here E is a measure that associates an orthogonal projection with each Borel subset of ℂ. The countable additivity of this measure means that if x Eℋ can be written as a sum of eigenvectors then this sum must converge unconditionally.

AbstractWe introduce a notion of absorption operators in the context of quantum Markov processes. The absorption problem in invariant domains (enclosures) is treated for a quantum Markov evolution on a separable Hilbert space, both in discrete and continuous times: We define a well-behaving set of positive operators which can correspond to classical absorption probabilities, and we study their basic properties, in general, and with respect to accessibility structure of channels, transience and recurrence. In particular, we can prove that no accessibility is allowed between the null and positive recurrent subspaces. In the case, when the positive recurrent subspace is attractive, ergodic theory will allow us to get additional results, in particular about the description of fixed points.
