Aluthge Transform
In mathematics and more precisely in functional analysis, the Aluthge transformation is an operation defined on the set of bounded operators of a Hilbert space. It was introduced by Ariyadasa Aluthge to study p-hyponormal linear operators. Definition Let H be a Hilbert space and let B(H) be the algebra of linear operators from H to H. By the polar decomposition In mathematics, the polar decomposition of a square real or complex matrix A is a factorization of the form A = U P, where U is an orthogonal matrix and P is a positive semi-definite symmetric matrix (U is a unitary matrix and P is a positive se ... theorem, there exists a unique partial isometry U such that T=U, T, and \ker(U)\supset\ker(T), where , T, is the square root of the operator T^*T. If T\in B(H) and T=U, T, is its polar decomposition, the Aluthge transform of T is the operator \Delta(T) defined as: : \Delta(T)=, T, ^U, T, ^. More generally, for any real number \lambda\in ,1/math>, the \ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Functional Analysis
Functional analysis is a branch of mathematical analysis, the core of which is formed by the study of vector spaces endowed with some kind of limit-related structure (e.g. Inner product space#Definition, inner product, Norm (mathematics)#Definition, norm, Topological space#Definition, topology, etc.) and the linear transformation, linear functions defined on these spaces and respecting these structures in a suitable sense. The historical roots of functional analysis lie in the study of function space, spaces of functions and the formulation of properties of transformations of functions such as the Fourier transform as transformations defining continuous function, continuous, unitary operator, unitary etc. operators between function spaces. This point of view turned out to be particularly useful for the study of differential equations, differential and integral equations. The usage of the word ''functional (mathematics), functional'' as a noun goes back to the calculus of variati ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bounded Operators
In functional analysis and operator theory, a bounded linear operator is a linear transformation L : X \to Y between topological vector spaces (TVSs) X and Y that maps bounded subsets of X to bounded subsets of Y. If X and Y are normed vector spaces (a special type of TVS), then L is bounded if and only if there exists some M > 0 such that for all x \in X, \, Lx\, _Y \leq M \, x\, _X. The smallest such M is called the operator norm of L and denoted by \, L\, . A bounded operator between normed spaces is continuous and vice versa. The concept of a bounded linear operator has been extended from normed spaces to all topological vector spaces. Outside of functional analysis, when a function f : X \to Y is called " bounded" then this usually means that its image f(X) is a bounded subset of its codomain. A linear map has this property if and only if it is identically 0. Consequently, in functional analysis, when a linear operator is called "bounded" then it is never meant in this a ...

Hilbert Space
In mathematics, Hilbert spaces (named after David Hilbert) allow generalizing the methods of linear algebra and calculus from (finite-dimensional) Euclidean vector spaces to spaces that may be infinite-dimensional. Hilbert spaces arise naturally and frequently in mathematics and physics, typically as function spaces. Formally, a Hilbert space is a vector space equipped with an inner product that defines a distance function for which the space is a complete metric space. The earliest Hilbert spaces were studied from this point of view 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, quantum mechanics, Fourier analysis (which includes applications to signal processing and heat transfer), and ergodic theory (which forms the mathematical underpinning of thermodynamics). John von Neumann coined the term ''Hilbert space'' for the abstract concept that under ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
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] |
Polar Decomposition
In mathematics, the polar decomposition of a square real or complex matrix A is a factorization of the form A = U P, where U is an orthogonal matrix and P is a positive semi-definite symmetric matrix (U is a unitary matrix and P is a positive semi-definite Hermitian matrix in the complex case), both square and of the same size. Intuitively, if a real n\times n matrix A is interpreted as a linear transformation of n-dimensional space \mathbb^n, the polar decomposition separates it into a rotation or reflection U of \mathbb^n, and a scaling of the space along a set of n orthogonal axes. The polar decomposition of a square matrix A always exists. If A is invertible, the decomposition is unique, and the factor P will be positive-definite. In that case, A can be written uniquely in the form A = U e^X , where U is unitary and X is the unique self-adjoint logarithm of the matrix P. This decomposition is useful in computing the fundamental group of (matrix) Lie groups. The polar deco ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Partial Isometry
In functional analysis a partial isometry is a linear map between Hilbert spaces such that it is an isometry on the orthogonal complement of its kernel. The orthogonal complement of its kernel is called the initial subspace and its range is called the final subspace. Partial isometries appear in the polar decomposition. General The concept of partial isometry can be defined in other equivalent ways. If ''U'' is an isometric map defined on a closed subset ''H''1 of a Hilbert space ''H'' then we can define an extension ''W'' of ''U'' to all of ''H'' by the condition that ''W'' be zero on the orthogonal complement of ''H''1. Thus a partial isometry is also sometimes defined as a closed partially defined isometric map. Partial isometries (and projections) can be defined in the more abstract setting of a semigroup with involution; the definition coincides with the one herein. In finite-dimensional vector spaces, a matrix A is a partial isometry if and only if A^* A is the proje ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Square Root Of A Matrix
In mathematics, the square root of a matrix extends the notion of square root from numbers to matrices. A matrix is said to be a square root of if the matrix product is equal to . Some authors use the name ''square root'' or the notation only for the specific case when is positive semidefinite, to denote the unique matrix that is positive semidefinite and such that (for real-valued matrices, where is the transpose of ). Less frequently, the name ''square root'' may be used for any factorization of a positive semidefinite matrix as , as in the Cholesky factorization, even if . This distinct meaning is discussed in '. Examples In general, a matrix can have several square roots. In particular, if A = B^2 then A=(-B)^2 as well. The 2×2 identity matrix \textstyle\begin1 & 0\\ 0 & 1\end has infinitely many square roots. They are given by :\begin \pm 1 & 0\\ 0 & \pm 1\end and \begin a & b\\ c & -a\end where (a, b, c) are any numbers (real or complex) such that a^2+bc= ...
