Is the weighted shift strong frequently hypercyclic?
One sided Shift
Let be $M$ separable metric space. Consider $X=M^{\mathbb{N}}$ the sequence space equipped with the product metric $d(x,y)=\sum_{i=1}^\infty |x_i-y_i|/2^i$ . Define the shift map $\...

Are these kinds of "crossed product" studied?
Let $M$ be a von Neumann algebra acting in a Hilbert space $H$, and let $\rho$ be a representation of a group $G$ on a Hilbert space $K$. Define $M\rtimes_\rho G$ to be a von Neumann algebra acting in ...

An example of non trivial projections in a group von Neumann algebra
Let $G$ and $\text{vN}(G)$ be a torsion free group and its group von Neumann algebra. Is there a characterization of non trivial projections in $\text{vN}(G)$? If not, is a certain class of them ...

Reference for explicit quasicentral BAI in K(H) as ideal in B(H)?
As observed by Arveson and Akemann+Pedersen, if $J$ is an ideal in a ${\rm C}^\ast$-algebra $B$, then one can always find a contractive approximate identity for $J$, call it $(e_\lambda)_{\lambda\in\...

Totally non hereditary $C^{*}$-subalgebras
Assume that $B$ is a $C^{*}$ subalgebra of $A$. We say $B$ is totally non hereditary subalgebra of $A$ if not only $B$ is not a hereditary subalgebra but also it is not isomorphic to any ...

Reference request on operator matrices [closed]
I'm looking for a reference on linear, bounded, self-adjoint operators defined on the product space, $T:E\times F\to E\times F$ such that
$$Tx = \begin{pmatrix}A & B \\
C & D
\end{pmatrix}\...
