Hyponormal Operator
In mathematics, especially operator theory, a hyponormal operator is a generalization of a normal operator. In general, a bounded linear operator ''T'' on a complex Hilbert space ''H'' is said to be ''p''-hyponormal (0 < p \le 1) if: : (That is to say, is a positive operator.) If , then ''T'' is called a hyponormal operator. If , then ''T'' is called a semi-hyponormal operator. Moreover, ''T'' is said to be log-hyponormal if it is invertible and : An invertible ''p''-hyponormal operator is log-hyponormal. On the other hand, not every log-hyponormal is ''p''-hyponormal. The class of semi-hyponormal operators was introduced by Xia, and the class of p-hyponormal operators was studied by Aluthge, who used what is today called the [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Operator Theory
In mathematics, operator theory is the study of linear operators on function spaces, beginning with differential operators and integral operators. The operators may be presented abstractly by their characteristics, such as bounded linear operators or closed operators, and consideration may be given to nonlinear operators. The study, which depends heavily on the topology of function spaces, is a branch of functional analysis. If a collection of operators forms an algebra over a field, then it is an operator algebra. The description of operator algebras is part of operator theory. Single operator theory Single operator theory deals with the properties and classification of operators, considered one at a time. For example, the classification of normal operators in terms of their spectra falls into this category. Spectrum of operators The spectral theorem is any of a number of results about linear operators or about matrices. In broad terms the spectral theorem provides cond ...

Normal Operator
In mathematics, especially functional analysis, a normal operator on a complex number, complex Hilbert space H is a continuous function (topology), continuous linear operator N\colon H\rightarrow H that commutator, commutes with its Hermitian adjoint N^, that is: N^N = NN^. Normal operators are important because the spectral theorem holds for them. The class of normal operators is well understood. Examples of normal operators are * unitary operators: U^ = U^ * Hermitian operators (i.e., self-adjoint operators): N^ = N * skew-Hermitian operators: N^ = -N * positive operators: N = M^M for some M (so ''N'' is self-adjoint). A normal matrix is the matrix expression of a normal operator on the Hilbert space \mathbb^. Properties Normal operators are characterized by the spectral theorem. A Compact operator on Hilbert space, compact normal operator (in particular, a normal operator on a dimension (vector space), finite-dimensional inner product space) is unitarily diagonalizable.

Linear Operator
In mathematics, and more specifically in linear algebra, a linear map (also called a linear mapping, linear transformation, vector space homomorphism, or in some contexts linear function) is a mapping V \to W between two vector spaces that preserves the operations of vector addition and scalar multiplication. The same names and the same definition are also used for the more general case of modules over a ring; see Module homomorphism. If a linear map is a bijection then it is called a . In the case where V = W, a linear map is called a linear endomorphism. Sometimes the term refers to this case, but the term "linear operator" can have different meanings for different conventions: for example, it can be used to emphasize that V and W are real vector spaces (not necessarily with V = W), or it can be used to emphasize that V is a function space, which is a common convention in functional analysis. Sometimes the term ''linear function'' has the same meaning as ''linear map' ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Hilbert Space
In mathematics, a Hilbert space is a real number, real or complex number, complex inner product space that is also a complete metric space with respect to the metric induced by the inner product. It generalizes the notion of Euclidean space. The inner product allows lengths and angles to be defined. Furthermore, Complete metric space, completeness means that there are enough limit (mathematics), limits in the space to allow the techniques of calculus to be used. A Hilbert space is a special case of a Banach space. Hilbert spaces were studied beginning in the first decade of the 20th century by David Hilbert, Erhard Schmidt, and Frigyes Riesz. They are indispensable tools in the theories of partial differential equations, mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics, quantum mechanics, Fourier analysis (which includes applications to signal processing and heat transfer), and ergodic theory (which forms the mathematical underpinning of thermodynamics).

Subnormal Operator
In mathematics, especially operator theory, subnormal operators are bounded operators on a Hilbert space defined by weakening the requirements for normal operators. Some examples of subnormal operators are isometry, isometries and Toeplitz operators with analytic symbols. Definition Let ''H'' be a Hilbert space. A bounded operator ''A'' on ''H'' is said to be subnormal if ''A'' has a normal extension. In other words, ''A'' is subnormal if there exists a Hilbert space ''K'' such that ''H'' can be embedded in ''K'' and there exists a normal operator ''N'' of the form :N = \begin A & B\\ 0 & C\end for some bounded operators :B : H^ \rightarrow H, \quad \mbox \quad C : H^ \rightarrow H^. Normality, quasinormality, and subnormality Normal operators Every normal operator is subnormal by definition, but the converse is not true in general. A simple class of examples can be obtained by weakening the properties of unitary operators. A unitary operator is an isometry with dense set, de ...

Paranormal Operator
In mathematics, especially operator theory, a paranormal operator is a generalization of a normal operator. More precisely, a bounded linear operator ''T'' on a complex Hilbert space ''H'' is said to be paranormal if: : \, T^2x\, \ge \, Tx\, ^2 for every unit vector ''x'' in ''H''. The class of paranormal operators was introduced by V. Istratescu in 1960s, though the term "paranormal" is probably due to Furuta. Every hyponormal operator (in particular, a subnormal operator, a quasinormal operator and a normal operator) is paranormal. If ''T'' is a paranormal, then ''T''''n'' is paranormal. On the other hand, Halmos gave an example of a hyponormal operator ''T'' such that ''T''2 isn't hyponormal. Consequently, not every paranormal operator is hyponormal. A compact Compact as used in politics may refer broadly to a pact or treaty; in more specific cases it may refer to: * Interstate compact, a type of agreement used by U.S. states * Blood compact, an ancient ritual of the Phi ...
