Spectral Set
In operator theory, a set X\subseteq\mathbb is said to be a spectral set for a (possibly unbounded) linear operator T on a Banach space if the spectrum of T is in X and von-Neumann's inequality holds for T on X - i.e. for all rational functions r(x) with no poles Poles,, ; singular masculine: ''Polak'', singular feminine: ''Polka'' or Polish people, are a West Slavic nation and ethnic group, who share a common history, culture, the Polish language and are identified with the country of Poland in Ce ... on X :\left\Vert r(T) \right\Vert \leq \left\Vert r \right\Vert_ = \sup \left\ This concept is related to the topic of analytic functional calculus of operators. In general, one wants to get more details about the operators constructed from functions with the original operator as the variable.

Operator Theory
In mathematics, operator theory is the study of linear operators on function spaces, beginning with differential operators and integral operators. The operators may be presented abstractly by their characteristics, such as bounded linear operators or closed operators, and consideration may be given to nonlinear operators. The study, which depends heavily on the topology of function spaces, is a branch of functional analysis. If a collection of operators forms an algebra over a field, then it is an operator algebra. The description of operator algebras is part of operator theory. Single operator theory Single operator theory deals with the properties and classification of operators, considered one at a time. For example, the classification of normal operators in terms of their spectra falls into this category. Spectrum of operators The spectral theorem is any of a number of results about linear operators or about matrices. In broad terms the spectral theorem provides cond ...

Spectrum Of An Operator
In mathematics, particularly in functional analysis, the spectrum of a bounded linear operator (or, more generally, an unbounded linear operator) is a generalisation of the set of eigenvalues of a matrix. Specifically, a complex number \lambda is said to be in the spectrum of a bounded linear operator T if T-\lambda I is not invertible, where I is the identity operator. The study of spectra and related properties is known as spectral theory, which has numerous applications, most notably the mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics. The spectrum of an operator on a finite-dimensional vector space is precisely the set of eigenvalues. However an operator on an infinite-dimensional space may have additional elements in its spectrum, and may have no eigenvalues. For example, consider the right shift operator ''R'' on the Hilbert space ℓ2, :(x_1, x_2, \dots) \mapsto (0, x_1, x_2, \dots). This has no eigenvalues, since if ''Rx''=''λx'' then by expanding this expression we see ...

Von Neumann's Inequality
In operator theory, von Neumann's inequality, due to John von Neumann, states that, for a fixed contraction ''T'', the polynomial functional calculus map is itself a contraction. Formal statement For a contraction ''T'' acting on a Hilbert space and a polynomial ''p'', then the norm of ''p''(''T'') is bounded by the supremum of , ''p''(''z''), for ''z'' in the unit disk." Proof The inequality can be proved by considering the unitary dilation In operator theory, a dilation of an operator ''T'' on a Hilbert space ''H'' is an operator on a larger Hilbert space ''K'', whose restriction to ''H'' composed with the orthogonal projection onto ''H'' is ''T''. More formally, let ''T'' be a boun ... of ''T'', for which the inequality is obvious. Generalizations This inequality is a specific case of Matsaev's conjecture. That is that for any polynomial ''P'' and contraction ''T'' on L^p :, , P(T), , _ \le , , P(S), , _{\ell^p\to\ell^p} where ''S'' is the right-shift operator. The von Ne ...

Pole (complex Analysis)
In complex analysis (a branch of mathematics), a pole is a certain type of singularity of a complex-valued function of a complex variable. In some sense, it is the simplest type of singularity. Technically, a point is a pole of a function if it is a zero of the function and is holomorphic in some neighbourhood of (that is, complex differentiable in a neighbourhood of ). A function is meromorphic in an open set if for every point of there is a neighborhood of in which either or is holomorphic. If is meromorphic in , then a zero of is a pole of , and a pole of is a zero of . This induces a duality between ''zeros'' and ''poles'', that is fundamental for the study of meromorphic functions. For example, if a function is meromorphic on the whole complex plane plus the point at infinity, then the sum of the multiplicities of its poles equals the sum of the multiplicities of its zeros. Definitions A function of a complex variable is holomorphic in an open domai ...
