We generalize Löwner’s method for proving that matrix monotone functions are operator monotone. The relation x ≤ y on bounded operators is our model for a definition for C∗-relations of being residually finite dimensional. Our main result is a meta-theorem about theorems involving relations on bounded operators. If we can show there are residually finite dimensional relations involved, and veri...

The aim of the present paper is to give a new kind of point of view in the theory of variational inequalities. Our approach makes possible the study of both scalar and vector variational inequalities under a great variety of assumptions. One can include here the variational inequalities defined on reflexive or nonreflexive Banach spaces, as well as the vector variational inequalities defined on...

We will prove some inequalities among trigonometric quantities of two and three operators. In particular, we will establish an inequality among joint trigonometric quantities of two operators and trigonometric quantities of each operator. As a corollary, we will find an upper bound and a lower bound for the total joint antieigenvalue of two positive operators in terms of the smallest and larges...

Modifying von Neumann’s alternating projections algorithm, we obtain an alternating method for solving the recently introduced Common Solutions to Variational Inequalities Problem (CSVIP). For simplicity, we mainly con…ne our attention to the two-set CSVIP, which entails …nding common solutions to two unrelated variational inequalities in Hilbert space. Keywords: Alternating method, averaged op...

In this paper our primary concern is with the establishment of weighted Hardy inequalities in L(Ω) and Rellich inequalities in L(Ω) depending upon the distance to the boundary of domains Ω ⊂ R with a finite diameter D(Ω). Improved constants are presented in most cases.

A selfadjoint involutive matrix J endows Cn with an indefinite inner product [·, ·] given by [x,y] = 〈Jx,y〉 , x,y ∈ Cn. Characterizations of the J -chaotic order Log(A) J Log(B) are presented for J -selfadjoint matrices A,B with positive eigenvalues, in terms of operator functions involving the α -power mean and the J -relative entropy. An indefinite complete form of the Furuta inequality and s...
