We define the complete numerical radius norm for homomorphisms from any operator algebra into B(H), and show that this norm can be computed explicitly in terms of the completely bounded norm. This is used to show that if K is a complete Cspectral set for an operator T , then it is a complete M -numerical radius set, where M = 12 (C + C −1). In particular, in view of Crouzeix’s theorem, there is...

We investigate the use of asymptotically null slices combined with stretching or compactification of the radial coordinate for the numerical simulation of asymptotically flat spacetimes. We consider a 1-parameter family of coordinates characterised by the asymptotic relation r ∼ R between the physical radius R and coordinate radius r, and the asymptotic relation K ∼ R for the extrinsic curvatur...

the rank-k numerical range has a close connection to the construction of quantum error correction code for a noisy quantum channel. for noisy quantum channel, a quantum error correcting code of dimension k exists if and only if the associated joint rank-k numerical range is non-empty. in this paper the notion of joint rank-k numerical range is generalized and some statements of [2011, generaliz...

We study the range S(A) := {xT Ay : x, y are orthonormal in Rn}, where A is an n×n complex skew symmetric matrix. It is a compact convex set. Power inequality s(A) ≤ s(A), k ∈ N, for the radius s(A) := maxξ∈S(A) |ξ| is proved. When n = 3, 4, 5, 6, relations between S(A) and the classical numerical range and the k-numerical range are given. Axiomatic characterization of S(A) is given. Sharp poin...

The numerical range W (A) of a bounded linear operator A on a Hilbert space is the collection of complex numbers of the form (Av, v) with v ranging over the unit vectors in the Hilbert space. In terms of the location of W (A), inclusion regions are obtained for W (Ak) for positive integers k, and also for negative integers k if A−1 exists. Related inequalities on the numerical radius w(A) = sup...

Let Mn be the semigroup of n× n complex matrices under the usual multiplication, and let S be different subgroups or semigroups in Mn including the (special) unitary group, (special) general linear group, the semigroups of matrices with bounded ranks. Suppose Λk(A) is the rank-k numerical range and rk(A) is the rank-k numerical radius of A ∈ Mn. Multiplicative maps φ : S → Mn satisfying rk(φ(A)...

Multiplicative preservers of C-numerical ranges and radii on certain groups and semigroups of complex n × n matrices are characterized. The general and special linear groups are considered, as well as the semigroups of matrices having ranks not exceeding k, with k fixed in advance. For a fixed C, it turns out that typically the multiplicative preservers of the C-numerical range (or radius) have...
