We prove that for every closed locally convex subspace $E$ of $L_0$ and for any continuous linear operator $T$ from $L_0$ to $L_0/E$ there is a continuous linear operator $S$ from $L_0$ to $L_0$ such that $T = QS$ where $Q$ is the quotient map from $L_0$ to $L_0/E$.
We prove a version of the Ando-Choi-Effros lifting theorem respecting subspaces, which in turn relies on Oja's principle of local reflexivity respecting subspaces. To achieve this, we first develop a theory of pairs of $M$-ideals. As a first consequence we get a version respecting subspaces of the Michael-Pełczyński extension theorem. Other applications are related to linear and Lipschitz bounded approximation properties for a pair consisting of a Banach space and a subspace. We show that in the separable case, the BAP for such a pair is equivalent to the simultaneous splitting of an associate…
We show that a complemented subspace of a locally convex direct sum of an uncountable collection of Banach spaces is a locally convex direct sum of complemented subspaces of countable subsums. As a corollary we prove that a complemented subspace of a locally convex direct sum of arbitrary collection of $\ell_{1}(Γ)$-spaces is isomorphic to a locally convex direct sum of $\ell_{1}(Γ)$-spaces.
We construct a complete locally convex topological vector space $X$ of countable algebraic dimension and a continuous linear operator $T:X\to X$ such that $T$ has no non-trivial closed invariant subspaces.
A new functional model for pairs of commuting isometries is described. Intertwining operators between such models are then studied in order to approach the classification of invariant subspaces of such pairs.
An operator $T$ is called a 3-isometry if there exists operators $B_1(T^*,T)$ and $B_2(T^*,T)$ such that \[Q(n)=T^{*n}T^n=1+nB_1(T^*,T)+n^2 B_2(T^*,T)\] for all natural numbers $n$. An operator $J$ is a Jordan operator of order $2$ if $J=U+N$ where $U$ is unitary, $N$ is nilpotent order $2$, and $U$ and $N$ commute. An easy computation shows that $J$ is a $3$-isometry and that the restriction of $J$ to an invariant subspace is also a $3$-isometry. Those $3$-isometries which are the restriction of a Jordan operator to an invariant subspace can be identified, using the theory of completely posit…
We provide an unified approach of results of L. Dor on the complementation of the range, and of D. Alspach on the nearness from isometries, of small into isomorphisms of L1. We introduce the notion of small subspace of L1 and show lifting theorems for operators between quotients of L1 by small subspaces. We construct a subspace of L1 which shows that extension of isometries from subspaces of L1 to the whole space are no longer true for isomorphisms, and that nearly isometric isomorphisms from subspaces of L1 into L1 need not be near from any isometry.
An operator T on Hilbert space is a 3-isometry if there exists operators B and D such that (T*)^n T^n = I+nB +n^2 D. An operator J is a Jordan operator if it the sum of a unitary U and nilpotent N of order two which commute. If T is a 3-isometry and c>0, then I-c^{-2} D + sB + s^2D is positive semidefinite for all real s if and only if T is the restriction to an invariant subspace of a Jordan operator J=U+N with the norm of N at most c. As a corollary, an analogous result for 3-symmetric operators, due to Helton and Agler, is recovered.
It is proved that there exist complemented subspaces of countable topological products (locally convex direct sums) of Banach spaces which cannot be represented as topological products (locally convex direct sums) of Banach spaces. (This is a revised version of the paper by the same name formerly contained in the file ostrovskiicompsbsp.atx.)
Let E be a locally solid vector lattice. In this paper, we consider two particular vector subspaces of the space of all order bounded operators on E. With the aid of two appropriate topologies, we show that under some conditions, they establish both, locally solid vector lattices and topologically complete topological algebras.
The main focus of this paper is to study multi-valued linear monotone operators in the contexts of locally convex spaces via the use of their Fitzpatrick and Penot functions. Notions such as maximal monotonicity, uniqueness, negative-infimum, and (dual-) representability are studied and criteria are provided.
A subspace $X$ of a vector space over a field $K$ is hyperinvariant with respect to an endomorphism $f$ of $V$ if it is invariant for all endomorphisms of $V$ that commute with $f$. We assume that $f$ is locally nilpotent, that is, every $ x \in V $ is annihilated by some power of $f$, and that $V$ is an infinite direct sum of $f$-cyclic subspaces. In this note we describe the lattice of hyperinvariant subspaces of $V$. We extend results of Fillmore, Herrero and Longstaff (Linear Algebra Appl. 17 (1977), 125--132) to infinite dimensional spaces.
Let G be a locally compact group. In this note, we characterise non-degenerate *-representations of A_Φ(G) and B_Φ(G). We also study spectral subspaces associated to a non-degenerate Banach space representation of A_Φ(G).
Gelfand-Naimark duality (Commutative $C^*$-algebras $\equiv$ Locally compact Hausdorff spaces) is extended to $C^*$-algebras $\equiv$ Quotient maps on locally compact Hausdorff spaces. Using this duality, we give for an \emph{arbitrary} bounded operator on a complex Hilbert space of several dimensions, a functional calculus and the existence theorem for nontrivial invariant subspace.
In this paper, we construct new important the subspaces $D_{p}^{q}S$, $D_{p}^{q}W$, $D_{p}^{q}F$ and $D_{p}^{q}B$ for a locally convex FK-space $X$ containing $ϕ$, the space of finite sequences. Then we show that there is relation among these subspaces. Also, we study deferred Cesàro conullity of one FK-space with respect to another, and we give some important results. Finally, we examine the deferred Cesàro conullity of the absolute summability domain $l_A$, and show that if $l_A$ is deferred Cesàro conull, then $A$ cannot be $l$-replaceable.
We introduce notions of finite presentation and co-exactness which serve as qualitative and quantitative analogues of finite-dimensionality for operator modules over completely contractive Banach algebras. With these notions we begin the development of a local theory of operator modules by introducing analogues of the local lifting property, nuclearity, and semi-discreteness. For a large class of operator modules we prove that the local lifting property is equivalent to flatness, generalizing the operator space result of Kye and Ruan. We pursue applications to abstract harmonic analysis, where…
Let $M$ be a Hopf--von Neuman algebra with the predual $M_*$ and $WAP(M)$ the subspace in $M$ composed of weakly almost periodic functionals on $M_*$. The main example of such an algebra is $M=L^\infty(\mathbb G)$ for a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb G$. We define a pair of left/right spaces $WAP_{iso,l}(M)$ and $WAP_{iso,r}(M)$ inside $WAP(M)$ and prove that they carry invariant means. These spaces are currently the widest known to admit invariant means in the quantum setting. In the case when $M=L^\infty(G)$ and $G$ is a locally compact group, these spaces are equal to $WAP(G)$.
We prove lifting theorems for complex representations $V$ of finite groups $G$. Let $σ=(σ_1,\dots,σ_n)$ be a minimal system of homogeneous basic invariants and let $d$ be their maximal degree. We prove that any continuous map $\overline{f} \colon {\mathbb R}^m \to V$ such that $f = σ\circ \overline{f}$ is of class $C^{d-1,1}$ is locally of Sobolev class $W^{1,p}$ for all $1 \le p<d/(d-1)$. In the case $m=1$ there always exists a continuous choice $\overline{f}$ for given $f\colon {\mathbb R} \to σ(V) \subseteq {\mathbb C}^n$. We give uniform bounds for the $W^{1,p}$-norm of $\overline{f}$ in t…
We introduce the strong Gelfand-Phillips property for locally convex spaces and give several characterizations of this property. We characterize the strong Gelfand-Phillips property among locally convex spaces admitting a stronger Banach space topology. If $C_{\mathcal T}(X)$ is a space of continuous functions on a Tychonoff space $X$, endowed with a locally convex topology $\mathcal T$ between the pointwise topology and the compact-open topology, then: (a) the space $C_{\mathcal T}(X)$ has the strong Gelfand-Phillips property iff $X$ contains a compact countable subspace $K\subseteq X$ of fin…
The bracket map was originally considered for locally compact abelian groups. In this work we extend the study of bracket maps to the noncommutative setting, providing characterizations of bases and frames for cyclic subspaces of the Heisenberg group. We also indicate how to generalize these results to a class of non-abelian nilpotent Lie groups whose irreducible representations are square integrable modulo the center.
In this note we prove that the reproducing kernel of a Hilbert space satisfying the division property has integrable form, is locally of trace class, and the Hilbert space itself is a Hilbert space of holomorphic functions.
Gelfand duality between unital commutative C*-algebras and Compact Hausdorff spaces is extended to all unital C*-algebras, where the dual objects are what we call compact Hausdorff quantum spaces. We apply this result to obtain, a characterization of unitary groups of C*-algebras, and, for arbitrary bounded Hilbert space operators, (i) A spectral theorem cum continuous functional calculus, and (ii) A proof of the general Invariant Subspace Theorem. Also described is a nonabelian generalization of Pontryagin duality of abelian locally compact groups.
We introduce a "dual-space approach" to mixed Nevanlinna-Pick/Carathéodory-Schur interpolation in Banach spaces X of holomorphic functions on the disk. Our approach can be viewed as complementary to the well-known commutant lifting approach of D. Sarason and B. Nagy-C.Foiaş. We compute the norm of the minimal interpolant in X by a version of the Hahn-Banach theorem, which we use to extend functionals defined on a subspace of kernels without increasing their norm. This Functional extensions lemma plays a similar role as Sarason's Commutant lifting theorem but it only involves the predual of X a…
We characterize Ascoli spaces by showing that a Tychonoff space $X$ is Ascoli iff the canonical map from the free locally convex space $L(X)$ over $X$ into $C_k\big(C_k(X)\big)$ is an embedding of locally convex spaces. We prove that an uncountable direct sum of non-trivial locally convex spaces is not Ascoli. If a $c_0$-barrelled space $X$ is weakly Ascoli, then $X$ is linearly isomorphic to a dense subspace of $\mathbb{R}^Γ$ for some $Γ$. Consequently, a Fréchet space $E$ is weakly Ascoli iff $E=\mathbb{R}^N$ for some $N\leqω$. If $X$ is a $μ$-space and a $k$-space (for example, metrizable),…
