AbstractWe consider the problem of variation of spectral subspaces for bounded linear self-adjoint operators in a Hilbert space. Using metric properties of the set of orthogonal projections as a length space, we obtain a new estimate on the norm of the operator angle associated with two spectral subspaces for isolated parts of the spectrum of the perturbed and unperturbed operators, respectively. In particular, recent results by Kostrykin, Makarov and Motovilov from [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 131, 3469–3476] and [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 359, 77–89] are strengthened.

The main result of this paper is that every normal operator on an infinitedimensional (complex) Hilbert space ℋ is the product of four self-adjoint operators; our Theorem 4 is an actually stronger result. A large class of normal operators will be given which cannot be expressed as the product of three self-adjoint operators.This work was motivated by a well-known resul t of Halmos and Kakutani (3) that every unitary operator on ℋ is the product of four symmetries, i.e., operators that are self-adjoint and unitary.1. By “operator” we shall mean bounded linear operator. The space ℋ will be infinite-dimensional (separable or non-separable) unless otherwise specified. We shall denote the class of self-adjoint operators on ℋ by and that of symmetries by .

Let ℋ be a Hilbert space, let ℬ = (ℋ, ℋ) be the B*-algebra of bounded linear operators from ℋ to ℋ with the uniform operator topology, and let ℒ be the subset of ℬ consisting of the self-adjoint operators. This article is concerned with the second order self-adjoint differential equation

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.

AbstractThe paper deals with iterative methods for solving linear operator equations ${x = Bx + f}$ and ${Ax = f}$ with self-adjoint operators in Hilbert space X in the critical case when ${\rho (B) = 1}$ and ${0 \in \operatorname{Sp} A}$. The results obtained are based on a theorem by M. A. Krasnosel'skii on the convergence of the successive approximations, their modifications and refinements.

<p>In this talk, to be given at a conference at Seconda Università degli Studi di Napoli in September 2001, we shall describe the set of analytic bounded point evaluations for an arbitrary cyclic bounded linear operator T on a Hilbert space H and shall answer some questions due to L. R. Williams.</p>

It is explained how the localization technique introduced by the author in [19] leads to a useful reformulation of the multivariate moment problem in terms of extension of positive semidefinite linear functionals to positive semidefinite linear functionals on the localization of $\mathsf{R}[\underline{x}]$ at $p = \prod_{i=1}^n(1+x_i^2)$ or $p' = \prod_{i=1}^{n-1}(1+x_i^2)$. It is explained how this reformulation can be exploited to prove new results concerning existence and uniqueness of the measure $\mu$ and density of $\mathsf{C}[\underline{x}]$ in $\mathscr{L}^s(\mu)$ and, at the same time, to give new proofs of old results of Fuglede [11], Nussbaum [21], Petersen [22] and Schmüdgen [27], results which were proved previously using the theory of strongly commuting self-adjoint operators on Hilbert space.

In this paper, we introduce an exponential of an operator defined on a Hilbert space H, and we study its properties and find some of properties of T inherited to exponential operator, so we study the spectrum of exponential operator e^T according to the operator T.
