Sufficient criteria for $X \subset \mathcal{H}$ to be a Lipschitz (or unif. cont.) retract of $\mathcal{H}$

I am interested in sufficient criteria which ensure that a subset $X$ of a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is a Lipschitz (or at least uniformly continuous) retract of $\mathcal{H}$. Under which ...

Is this subspace of $B(\mathcal{H})$ known?

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a Hilbert space. Suppose that I take a fixed ONB of $\mathcal{H}$ let us call it $\{ e_i \}_{i\in \mathbb{N}}$ and then I define \begin{align*} \|T \|_{D} = \sup_{l_i, m_i} \sum_{...

Exterior powers and singular values on Hilbert spaces

I am currently writing an article relating to multiplicative ergodic theorems for cocycles of bounded operators acting on a Hilbert space, and in parts of the argument it is necessary for me to refer ...

On a paper of von Neumann

Let $H$ be a Hilbert space and $T: H \to H$ be a contraction. In Eine Spektraltheorie für allgemeine Operatoren eines unitären Raumes, von Neumann proved the inequality $$ \lVert p(T)\rVert \leq \sup \...

What is a $C^\infty$ diffeomorphism from $\ell_2\setminus\{0\}$ to $\ell_2$ which is the identity outside a ball?

Let $\ell_2:=\{x=(x_n)_{n\in\mathbb N}:\ \|x\|^2:=\sum_n|x_n|^2<\infty\}$ with its natural norm. According to Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuiper%27s_theorem and to other sources, it is ...

Examples of RKHS that are "classical"

Among the so-called "classical" Hilbert spaces ($L^2$, Sobolev, Hardy, Bergman, etc.), which are very well-studied, which are RKHSs? It is easy to construct example of RKHSs by applying the ...

Orthonormal Basis for Convex Functions

Are there any orthonormal bases for strictly convex functions $f: \mathbb{R}^n\ni x \mapsto \mathbb{R},\ x\ne y\implies f\left(\alpha x+\left(1-\alpha\right)y\right) \lt \alpha f(x)+(1-\alpha)f(y) \...

Weak topology on subsets of a normed space

I have few questions about the subsets of a normed space $X$ endowed with the weak topology. Let $E$ be such subset. When is the norm a continuous function on $E$? When is the metric induced by the ...

Convergence and sequential compactness for nonlinear operators

I have a family of operators $T_n\colon X \to Y$ where $X,Y$ are Hilbert spaces. These operators are nonlinear. What kind of notions of convergence does one have for such operators? I'm specifically ...

Properties of Sobolev spaces $W^{k,p}(\Omega, E)$ where $E$ is a Banach space

$\newcommand{\R}{\mathbb R}$Let $E$ be a Banach space with norm $\|\cdot\|_E$ and let $\Omega\subset \R^n$ be an open set. For $k\geq 0, p\geq 1$ we define $W^{k,p}(\Omega, E)$, the Sobolev space of ...

Multivarate "RKHS" Examples

I've been reading about RKHSs and Hilbert spaces of functions these days a bit these days and I haven't yet come across an example of a hilbert space $H$ whose elements are all functions $f:\mathbb{R}^...

Embedding random variables in infinite-dimensional spaces

Let $H$ be a reproducing kernel Hilbert space of functions $f:E\to F$ with kernel $k$. A point in $E$ may be embedded into $H$ via the canonical embedding $x\mapsto k(x,\cdot)$. Similarly, a random ...

reference request: conditions for pointwise and operator-norm convergence of kernel projections

At a very high level, I’m interested in the following question. Suppose $X$ is a (separable) Hilbert space, and $T_n : X \rightarrow X$ is a sequence of finite rank self-adjoint maps that converges (...

Isolated points of the spectra of self-adjoint operators on Hilbert spaces

Let $T$ be a (everywhere defined) self-adjoint operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. I am interested in results that give (non-trivial, possibly mild) sufficient conditions on $T$ to ...

General form of a symplectic map

A symplectic automorphism of a Hilbert space has the form $T=U(\cosh S+J\sinh S)$ for a unitary $U$, an antilinear involution $J$ and a positive operator $S$. In fact a version of this goes through in ...
