Matrix multiplication operators on Banach function spaces

We define a smooth functional calculus for a non-commuting tuple of (unbounded) operators $A_j$ on a Banach space with real spectra and resolvents with temperate growth, by means of an iterated Cauchy formula. The construction is also extended to tuples of more general operators allowing smooth functional calculii. We also discuss the relation to the case with commuting operators.

This preprint concerns Banach spaces of functions converging at infinity. In particular, spaces of continuous functions, Lebesgue spaces and sequence spaces. In each framework we show versions of Riesz's representation theorem.

The following class of retarded integro-differential equations in a Banach space \[ \dot{x}\left(t\right)=Ax\left(t\right)+\int_{0}^{t}b\left(t-\tau\right)Lx_{\tau}d\tau+Kx_{t};\,\,t\geq0, \] are taken into consideration in this study. The delay term $Lx_{\tau}$ of this equation is inserted into the integral as a convolution product with a scalar kernel. We prove the well-posedness of the problem under investigation using the Miyadera-Voigt perturbation and the theory...

We introduce the numerical spectrum $\sigma_n(A)\subset \mathbb{C}$ of an (unbounded) linear operator $A$ on a Banach space $X$ and study its properties. Our definition is closely related to the numerical range $W(A)$ of $A$ and always yields a superset of $W(A)$. In the case of bounded operators on Hilbert spaces, the two notions coincide. However, unlike the numerical range, $\sigma_n(A)$ is always closed, convex and contains the spectrum of $A$. In the paper we strongly em...

The Gleason-Kahane-\.Zelazko theorem states that a linear functional on a Banach algebra that is non-zero on invertible elements is necessarily a scalar multiple of a character. Recently this theorem has been extended to certain Banach function spaces that are not algebras. In this article we present a brief survey of these extensions.

The existence of a Banach limit as a translation invariant positive continuous linear functional on the space of bounded scalar sequences which is equal to 1 at the constant sequence (1,1,...,1,...) is proved in a first course on functional analysis as a consequence of the Hahn Banach extension theorem. Whereas its use as an important tool in classical summability theory together with its application in the existence of certain invariant measures on compact (metric) spaces is...

This work performs a study of the category of complete matrix-normed spaces, called matricial Banach spaces. Many of the usual constructions of Banach spaces extend in a natural way to matricial Banach spaces, including products, direct sums, and completions. Also, while the minimal matrix-norm on a Banach space is well-known, this work characterizes the maximal matrix-norm on a Banach space from the work of Effros and Ruan as a dual operator space. Moreover, building from ...

In this article we extend recent results by the first author on the necessity of $BMO$ for the boundedness of commutators on the classical Lebesgue spaces. We generalize these results to a large class of Banach function spaces. We show that with modest assumptions on the underlying spaces and on the operator $T$, if the commutator $[b,T]$ is bounded, then the function $b$ is in $BMO$.

In view of the fact that some classical methods to construct multi-ideals fail in constructing hyper-ideals, in this paper we develop two new methods to construct hyper-ideals of multilinear operators between Banach spaces. These methods generate new classes of multilinear operators and show that some important well studied classes are Banach or p-Banach hyper-ideals.
