It is well-known, that if $A = \mathrm{id} + S$ is a bounded operator on a separable Hilbert Space $H$ with $S$ trace-class, then there is a well-defined notion of determinant, e.g. in terms of the si …

Let $S$ be the (say, left) shift operator on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$. For a non-zero vector $x \in \ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$, consider the set $$X = \{ S^n v \mid n \in \mathbb{Z} \}.$$ Is this always a total …

If an operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $H$ generates a strongly continuous semigroup, does then the operator $B$ on $H \oplus H$ given by the matrix $$ B := \begin{pmatrix} 0 & \mathrm{id} \\ A & 0\end …

I recently encountered the following somewhat random-looking problem in my research. At first I thought that should not be too hard, but now, the more I think about it, the more interesting it seems. …

In Kriegl/Michor's "Convenient Setting for Global Analysis", they put on the set $L(E, F)$ of bounded linear operators between locally convex spaces $E$, $F$ the subspace topology induced by the inclu …

An bouneded linear operator $A \in L(X, Y)$ (here $X$, $Y$ are Banach spaces) is called absolutely $2$-summable if there exists a $C>0$ such that $$ \left( \sum_{j=1}^N \| A x_j\|_X^2 \right)^{1/2} \l …

For a locally convex Hausdorff spaces $E$, consider the canonical map $$\overline{\psi}:E^\prime \hat{\otimes}_\pi E \longrightarrow L(E_\sigma)$$ that maps the projective tensor product to the space …

The Billiard flow $S_t$ on a Riemannian manifold with boundary (with corners) is the group of operators defined on continuous functions on the Co-sphere bundle as follows: To determine $S_t u(\xi)$, e …

It is known that weak convergence implies norm convergence in $\ell^1(\mathbb{N})$, see e.g. here. Because of the typical analogies of the Schatten ideals $C_p \subset B(H)$ (where $H$ is a Hilbert s …

Consider an operator $A: H \longrightarrow X$ ($H$ is a Hilbert space and $X$ is a Banach space) that has a representation $$ A = \sum_{j=0}^\infty a_j \langle \cdot, e_j\rangle \cdot x_j,$$ where $(e …

Let $X$ be a vector field on a manifold $M$ that induces a complete flow $\Theta_t$. Then the operator family $\Theta_t^*$, $$\Theta_t^*u(x) = u(\Theta_t(x))$$ is a strongly continuous semigroup of op …
