The purpose of the article is to generalize the concept of approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality, in the semi-Hilbertian structure. Given a positive operator $ A $ on a Hilbert space $ \mathbb{H}, $ we define $ (ε,A)- $approximate orthogonality and $ (ε,A)- $approximate orthogonality in the sense of Chmieli$\acute{n}$ski and establish a relation between them. We also characterize $ (ε,A)- $approximate orthogonality in the sense of Chmieli$\acute{n}$ski for $A$-bounded and $A$-bounded compact operators. We further generalize the concept of right symmetric and left symmetric operators on a Hilbert space. The utility of these notions are illustrated by extending some of the previous results obtained by various authors in the setting of Hilbert spaces.
Let $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the $C^{\ast}$-algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\big(\mathcal{H}, \langle\cdot, \cdot\rangle\big)$. Given a positive operator $A\in\B(\h)$, and a number $λ\in [0,1]$, a seminorm ${\|\cdot\|}_{(A,λ)}$ is defined on the set $\B_{A^{1/2}}(\h)$ of all operators in $\B(\h)$ having an $A^{1/2}$-adjoint. The seminorm ${\|\cdot\|}_{(A,λ)}$ is a combination of the sesquilinear form ${\langle \cdot, \cdot\rangle}_A$ and its induced seminorm ${\|\cdot\|}_A$. A characterization of Birkhoff--James orthogonality for operators with respect to th…
In this paper, the concept of Birkhoff--James orthogonality of operators on a Hilbert space is generalized when a semi-inner product is considered. More precisely, for linear operators $T$ and $S$ on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, a new relation $T\perp^B_A S$ is defined if $T$ and $S$ are bounded with respect to the seminorm induced by a positive operator $A$ satisfying ${\|T + γS\|}_A\geq {\|T\|}_A$ for all $γ\in \mathbb{C}$. We extend a theorem due to R. Bhatia and P. Šemrl, by proving that $T\perp^B_A S$ if and only if there exists a sequence of $A$-unit vectors $\{x_n\}$ in $\math…
Two different notions of approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality in nor\-med linear spaces have been introduced by Dragomir and Chmie\-liń\-ski. In the present paper we consider a global and a local approximate symmetry of the Birkhoff-James orthogonality related to each of the two definitions. We prove that the considered orthogonality is approximately symmetric in the sense of Dragomir in all finite-dimensional Banach spaces. For the other case, we prove that for finite-dimensional polyhedral Banach spaces, the approximate symmetry of the orthogonality is equivalent to some newly introduced…
Regarding the geometry of a real normed space ${\mathcal X}$, we mainly introduce a notion of approximate bisectrix-orthogonality on vectors $x, y \in {\mathcal X}$ as follows: $${x\np{\varepsilon}}_W y \mbox{if and only if} \sqrt{2}\frac{1-\varepsilon}{1+\varepsilon}\|x\|\,\|y\|\leq \Big\|\,\|y\|x+\|x\|y\,\Big\|\leq\sqrt{2}\frac{1+\varepsilon}{1-\varepsilon}\|x\|\,\|y\|.$$ We study class of linear mappings preserving the approximately bisectrix-orthogonality ${\np{\varepsilon}}_W$. In particular, we show that if $T: {\mathcal X}\to {\mathcal Y}$ is an approximate linear similarity, then $${x\…
We prove that sub-Riemannian manifolds are infinitesimally Hilbertian (i.e., the associated Sobolev space is Hilbert) when equipped with an arbitrary Radon measure. The result follows from an embedding of metric derivations into the space of square-integrable sections of the horizontal bundle, which we obtain on all weighted sub-Finsler manifolds. As an intermediate tool, of independent interest, we show that any sub-Finsler distance can be monotonically approximated from below by Finsler ones. All the results are obtained in the general setting of possibly rank-varying structures.

We introduce the notion of approximate numerical radius (Birkhoff) orthogonality and investigate its significant properties. Let $T, S\in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ and $\varepsilon \in [0, 1)$. We say that $T$ is approximate numerical radius orthogonal to $S$ and we write $T\perp^{\varepsilon}_ω S$ if $$ω^2(T+λS)\geq ω^2(T)-2\varepsilon ω(T) ω(λS)\,\,\, \text{for all }λ\in\mathbb{C}.$$ We show that $T\perp^{\varepsilon}_ω S$ if and only if $\displaystyle\inf_{θ\in [0, 2π)} D^θ_ω(T, S) \geq -\varepsilon ω(T) ω(S)$ in which $D^θ_ω(T, S)=\displaystyle\lim_{r\to 0^+} \frac{ω^2(T+re^{iθ} S)-ω^2(T)}{…
We introduce a notion of approximate orthogonality preserving mappings between Hilbert $C^*$-modules. We define the concept of $(δ, \varepsilon)$-orthogonality preserving mapping and give some sufficient conditions for a linear mapping to be $(δ, \varepsilon)$-orthogonality preserving. In particular, if $\mathscr{E}$ is a full Hilbert $\mathscr{A}$-module with $\mathbb{K}(\mathscr{H})\subseteq \mathscr{A} \subseteq \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ and $T, S:\mathscr{E}\longrightarrow \mathscr{E}$ are two linear mappings satisfying $\big|\langle Sx, Sy\rangle\big| = \|S\|^2\,|\langle x, y\rangle|$ for …
We study the norm derivatives in the context of Birkhoff-James orthogonality in real Banach spaces. As an application of this, we obtain a complete characterization of the left-symmetric points and the right-symmetric points in a real Banach space in terms of the norm derivatives. We obtain a complete characterization of strong Birkhoff-James orthogonality in $\ell_1^n$ and $\ell_\infty^n$ spaces. We also obtain a complete characterization of the orthogonality relation defined by the norm derivatives in terms of some newly introduced variation of Birkhoff-James orthogonality. We further study …
We introduce the notion of approximate smoothness in a normed linear space. We characterize this property and show the connections between smoothness and approximate smoothness for some spaces. As an application, we consider in particular the Birkhoff-James orthogonality and its right-additivity under the assumption of approximate smoothness.
We combine functional analytic and geometric viewpoints on approximate Birkhoff and isosceles orthogonality in generalized Minkowski spaces which are finite-dimensional vector spaces equipped with a gauge. This is the first approach to orthogonality types in such spaces.
A mapping $f: {\mathcal M} \to {\mathcal N}$ between Hilbert $C^*$-modules approximately preserves the inner product if \[\|< f(x), f(y)> - < x, y> \| \leq ϕ(x, y),\] for an appropriate control function $ϕ(x,y)$ and all $x, y \in {\mathcal M}$. In this paper, we extend some results concerning the stability of the orthogonality equation to the framework of Hilbert $C^*$-modules on more general restricted domains. In particular, we investigate some asymptotic behavior and the Hyers--Ulam--Rassias stability of the orthogonality equation.
We prove that a bounded linear Hilbert space operator has the unit circle in its essential approximate point spectrum if and only if it admits an orbit satisfying certain orthogonality and almost-orthogonality relations. This result is obtained via the study of numerical ranges of operator tuples where several new results are also obtained. As consequences of our numerical ranges approach, we derive in particular wide generalizations of Arveson's theorem as well as show that the weak convergence of operator powers implies the uniform convergence of their compressions on an infinite-dimensional…
In this paper, we obtain some characterizations of the (strong) Birkhoff--James orthogonality for elements of Hilbert $C^*$-modules and certain elements of $\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$. Moreover, we obtain a kind of Pythagorean relation for bounded linear operators. In addition, for $T\in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ we prove that if the norm attaining set $\mathbb{M}_T$ is a unit sphere of some finite dimensional subspace $\mathscr{H}_0$ of $\mathscr{H}$ and $\|T\|_{{\mathscr{H}_0}^\perp} < \|T\|$, then for every $S\in\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$, $T$ is the strong Birkhoff--James orthogonal to $S$ if a…
In solving scientific, engineering or pure mathematical problems one is often faced with a need to approximate the function of a given class by the linear combination of a preferably small number of functions that are localised one way or another both in the time and frequency domain. Over the last seventy years or so a range of systems of thus localised functions have been developed to allow the decomposition and synthesis of functions of various classes. The most prominent examples of such systems are Gabor functions, wavelets, ridgelets, curvelets, shearlets and wave atoms. We recently intr…
We begin the study of characterizations of recently defined approximate Schauder frame (ASF) and its duals for separable Banach spaces. We show that, under some conditions, both ASF and its dual frames can be characterized for Banach spaces. We also give an operator-theoretic characterization for similarity of ASFs. Our results encode the results of Holub, Li, Balan, Han, and Larson. We also address orthogonality of ASFs.
We investigate linear operators between C$^\ast$-algebras which approximately preserve involution and orthogonality, the latter meaning that for some $\varepsilon>0$ we have $\|ϕ(x)ϕ(y)\|\leq\varepsilon\|x\|\|y\|$ for all positive $x,y$ with $xy=0$. We establish some structural properties of such maps concerning approximate Jordan-like equations and almost commutation relations. In some situations (e.g. when the codomain is finite-dimensional), we show that $ϕ$ can be approximated by an approximate Jordan $^\ast$-homomorphism, with both errors depending only on $\|ϕ\|$ and $\varepsilon$.
We show that the approximate quasiorthogonality of two operator algebras is equivalent to the algebras being approximately private relative to their conditional expectation quantum channels. Our analysis is based on a characterization of the measure of orthogonality in terms of Choi matrices and Kraus operators for completely positive maps. We present examples drawn from different areas of quantum information.
We give an operator-algebraic treatment of theory of p-approximate Schuader frames which includes the theory of operator-valued frames by Kaftal, Larson, and Zhang [\textit{Trans. AMS., 2009}], G-frames by Sun [JMAA, 2006], factorable weak operator-valued frames by Krishna and Johnson [\textit{Annals of FA, 2022}] and p-approximate Schauder frames by Krishna and Johnson [\textit{J. Pseudo-Differ. Oper. Appl, 2021}] as particular cases. We show that a sufficiently rich theory can be developed even for Banach spaces. We achieve this by defining various concepts and characterizations in Banach sp…
