Using ideas of Pisier, the concept of complete positivity is generalized in a different direction in this paper, where the Hilbert spaceℋis replaced with a Banach space and its conjugate linear dual. The extreme point results of Arveson are reformulated in this more general setting.

Let H be a fixed Hilbert space and B(H, H) be the Banach space of bounded linear operators from H to H with the uniform operator topology. Oscillation criteria are obtained for the operator differential equationwhere the coefficients A, C are linear operators from B(H, H) to B(H, H), for each t ≤ 0. A solution Y: R+ → B(H, H) is said to be oscillatory if there exists a sequence of points ti ∈ R+, so that ti → ∞ as i → ∞, and Y(ti) fails to have a bounded inverse. The main theorem states that a solution Y is oscillatory if an associated scalar differential equation is oscillatory.

Each bounded linear operator a on a Hilbert space K has a hermitian left-support projection p such that and (1 – p)K = ker α* = ker αα*. I demonstrate here that certain operators on Banach spaces also have left supports.Throughout this paper X will be a complex Banach space with norm-dual X', and L(X) will be the Banach algebra of bounded linear operators on X. Two linear subspaces Y and Z of X are orthogonal (in the sense of G. Birkhoff) if ∥ y ∥ ≦ ∥ y + z ∥ (y ∈Y, z ∈ Z); this orthogonality relation is not, in general, symmetric. It is easy to see that pX is orthogonal to (1 – p)X if and only if the norm of p is 0 or 1, when p is a projection on X.

We extend the well-known characterizations of convergence in the spaces l p ( 1 ≤ p < ∞ ) of p -summable sequence and c 0 of vanishing sequences to a general characterization of convergence in a Banach space with a Schauder basis and obtain as instant corollaries characterizations of convergence in an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space and the space c of convergent sequences.“The method in the present paper is abstract and is phrased in terms of Banach spaces, linear operators, and so on. This has the advantage of greater simplicity in proof and greater generality in applications.” Jacob T. Schwartz

AbstractLet 𝓖D(𝓗) denote the generalized effect algebra consisting of all positive linear operators defined on a dense linear subspace D of a Hilbert space 𝓗. The D-weak operator topology (introduced by other authors) on 𝓖D(𝓗) is investigated. The corresponding closure of the set of bounded elements of 𝓖D(𝓗) is the whole 𝓖D(𝓗). The closure of the set of all unbounded elements of 𝓖D(𝓗) is also the set 𝓖D(𝓗). If Q is arbitrary unbounded element of 𝓖D(𝓗), it determines an interval in 𝓖D(𝓗), consisting of all operators between 0 and Q (with the usual ordering of operators). If we take the set of all bounded elements of this interval, the closure of this set (in the D-weak operator topology) is just the original interval. Similarly, the corresponding closure of the set of all unbounded elements of the interval will again be the considered interval.

AbstractIn this paper, we introduce the polynomial numerical index of order $k$ of a Banach space, generalizing to $k$-homogeneous polynomials the ‘classical’ numerical index defined by Lumer in the 1970s for linear operators. We also prove some results. Let $k$ be a positive integer. We then have the following:(i) $n^{(k)}(C(K))=1$ for every scattered compact space $K$.(ii) The inequality $n^{(k)}(E)\geq k^{k/(1-k)}$ for every complex Banach space $E$ and the constant $k^{k/(1-k)}$ is sharp.(iii) The inequalities$$ n^{(k)}(E)\leq n^{(k-1)}(E)\leq\frac{k^{(k+(1/(k-1)))}}{(k-1)^{k-1}}n^{(k)}(E) $$for every Banach space $E$.(iv) The relation between the polynomial numerical index of $c_0$, $l_1$, $l_{\infty}$ sums of Banach spaces and the infimum of the polynomial numerical indices of them.(v) The relation between the polynomial numerical index of the space $C(K,E)$ and the polynomial numerical index of $E$.(vi) The inequality $n^{(k)}(E^{**})\leq n^{(k)}(E)$ for every Banach space $E$.Finally, some results about the numerical radius of multilinear maps and homogeneous polynomials on $C(K)$ and the disc algebra are given.

In this paper we adopt the notion of orthogonality in Banach spaces introduced by the author in [6]. There, the author showed that in any two-dimensional subspace F of E, every nonzero element admits at most one orthogonal direction. The problem of existence of such orthogonal direction was not addressed before. Our main purpose in this paper is the investigation of this problem in the case where E is a real Banach space. As a result we obtain a characterisation of Hilbert spaces stating that, if in every two-dimensional subspace F of E every nonzero element admits an orthogonal direction, then E is isometric to a Hilbert space. We conclude by presenting some open problems.

AbstractA recent result of Leung (Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2015) states that the Banach algebra ℬ(X) of bounded, linear operators on the Banach space X = (⊕n∈$\mathbb{N}$ ℓ∞n)ℓ1 contains a unique maximal ideal. We show that the same conclusion holds true for the Banach spaces X = (⊕n∈$\mathbb{N}$ ℓ∞n)ℓp and X = (⊕n∈$\mathbb{N}$ ℓ1n)ℓp whenever p ∈ (1, ∞).

Giles and Joseph (Bull. Austral. Math. Soc. 11 (1974), 31–36), proved that the numerical range of an unbounded operator on a Banach space has a certain density property. They showed, in particular, that the numerical range of an unbounded operator on certain Banach spaces is dense in the scalar field. We prove that the numerical range of an unbounded operator on a Banach space is always dense in the scalar field.

We introduce the class of m-isometric operators on Banach spaces. This generalizes to Banach space the m-isometric operators on Hilbert space introduced by Agler and Stankus. We establish some basic properties and we introduce the notion of m-invertibility as a natural generalization of the invertibility on Banach spaces.

In this work we generalize Markov's inequality for any derivative of a polynomial on a real Hilbert space and provide estimates for the second and third derivatives of a polynomial on a real Banach space. Our result on a real Hilbert space answers a question raised by L. A. Harris in his commentary on problem 74 in the Scottish Book [20]. We also provide generalizations of previously obtained inequalities of the Bernstein and Markov-type for polynomials with curved majorants on a real Hilbert space.
