Functional Calculus of Unbounded Operator (Revise at 10Th August) Functional Calculus of Unbounded Operator (revise at 10th August) Hayato Arai (荒井駿) 321801019 1 Introduction In some of exercises and scattering theory, functional calculus plays an essential role. That is because I proof functional calculus of unbounded operator version for my subject. Functional calculus says that any self adjoint operator (even if on infinity dimension or un- bounded) can calculus like complex function. Therefore we regard spectral decomposition as a kind of integration, represent unbounded operator (such as differential operator or Hamiltonian) as a unitary group which is well-known as Stone's theorem, and so on. 2 Proof of functional calculus First, we check the notation. H= 6 (0) is Hilbert space and B(H) is a bounded linear operators on H. C(H) is densely defined closed linear operators on H which have a domain. σ(S) is the spectral set of S and ρ(S) is the resolvent set of S. If λ 2 ρ(S), then λ − S has inverse and this inverse −1 ~ denoted by (λ − S) or Rλ. σ(S) is defined by onepoint conpactification when σ(S) is unbounded, 1 if σS is unbounded, σ(~S) is defined by σ(S). We write e(s) ≡ 1 and r (s) = ; λ 2 ρ(S) for λ λ − s some S. At first, we show following proposition Proposition 2.1. Let S : H!H be densely defined and symmetric. The following are eauivalent: 1. S = S∗ 2. σ(S) ⊂ R 3. i 2 ρ(S). Proof. Suppose 1 and suppose λ = µ+iν with µ, ν real and ν =6 0. When x 2 D(S), j((λ−S)x; (λ− S)x)j ≥ jλj2jjxjj2 ≥ jνj2jjxjj2. Therefore λ − S is 1-1 and has closed range sinse S = S∗ is closed. Again R(λ − S)? = N((λ − S)∗) = N(λ − S) = (0) with N(S) be a kernel of S. Thus λ − S is onto, so λ 2 ρ(S). 2 ) 3 is clear. Suppose 3. Then N(S∗ + i) = R(S∗ − i)? = (0). This means that S∗ + i, which is an extension of the onto operator S + i, is 1-1. This is only possible if S∗ + i = S + i, which implies S∗ = S. 1 Next, we show the theorem which should be called the "continuous" functional calculus. −1 Theorem 2.2. Let S : H!H be a self adjoint operator. The map e 7! I; rλ 7! (λ − S) has a unique extension and this extension is an isometric algebra isomorphism f 7! f(S): C(~σ(S)) !B. Moreover, this extension preserves adjoint and order, i.e. f(S)∗ = f ∗(S), f(S) ≥ 0 if and only if f ≥ 0, on σ(S). Proof. Let F be the algebra of functions on C generated by e and rλ. When such map exists and ··· let p be a polynomial in n-variables, then the function f defined by f(s) = p(rλ1 (s); ; rλn (s)) ··· F correspond to the operator f(S) = p(Rλ1 ; ;Rλn ). Conversely, this will extend the map to ··· ··· when it is well-defined, i.e. p(rλ1 (s); ; rλn (s)) = 0 imply p(Rλ1 ; ;Rλn ) = 0. ≡ ≡ To show this, we induce on n. For n = 1, p(rλ1 ) 0 imply p is zero polynomial, so p(Rλ1 ) 0. ≤ ··· ≡ Next, suppose the assumption is true in n m, and suppose p(rλ1 (s); ; rλm+1 (s)) 0. Since 1 each rλj = 0 at , the constant term of p is zero. Now, 1 − − (λm+1 s)rλj (s) = (λm+1 s) λj − s 1 1 = λm+1 + 1 − λj λj − s λj − s − = (λm+1 λj)rλj + 1; − ··· ··· so (λm+1 s)p(rλ1 (s); ; rλm+1 (s)) = q(rλ1 (s); ; rλm (s)), with q is polynomial in m-variables because p has no constant term. Similarly, − − (λm+1 S)Rλj = (λm+1 λj)Rλj + I; − ··· ··· so (λm+1 S)p(Rλ1 ; ;Rλm+1 ) = q(Rλ1 ; ;Rλm ) and this is equal to 0 by the assumption of − − induction. Finally, p has no constant terms, each Rλj has range D(S), and λm+1 Sis 1 1, so ··· ≡ these impies p(Rλ1 ; ;Rλm+1 ) 0. Thus there is a unique extension to an algebra homomorphism f 7! f(S): F!B(H). Next, we show that for f 2 F,σ(f(S)) = f(~σ(S)). To show this, note that F consists precisely of all bounded rational functions which are holomorphic on σ(S). Suppose x 62 f(~σ(S)). Then put (x − f(s))−1 = h(s) 2 F and by homomophismness, (x − f(S))h(S) = e(S) = I = h(S)(x − f(S)): Thus x 62 σ(f(S)). Conversely if λ 2 σ(S) and x = f(λ), then s − f(s) = (λ − s)g(s), where g(s) 2 F and g(1) = 0byboundness. Therefore, using the fractions decomposition of g we get g(S)(λ − S) ⊂ (λ − S)g(S) = s − f(S): Since λ 2 σ(S), λ − S is either not 1-1 or not onto, so the same is true of x 2 σ(f(S)). Thus f(~σ(S)) ⊂ σ(f(S)). Next, we show isometry and uniqueness. Recall that operator norm is specified its spectral. we get jjf(S)jj = supff(λ); λ 2 σ(~S)g = jjfjj; f 2 F 2 Therefore this map is an isometry of F, considered as a subalgebra of C(~σ(S)), into B(H). On ⊂ R ∗ F σ(S) , rλ = rλ. Therefore is a closed complex conjugation. The Stone-Weierstrass theorem show that F is dense in C(~σ(S)), so f 7! f(S)has a unique extension to an algebra isometry. − ∗ −1 − −1 ∗ ∗ ∗ Finally, we show the other relations. (λ S ) = ((λ S) ) imply rλ(S) = rλ = rλ(S) . Thus f ∗(S) = f(S)∗; 8f 2 F. This relation is carried to C(~σ(S)). suppose f ≥ 0; f 2 C(~σ(S)),, then there exists g 2 C(~σ(S)); g ≥ 0, such that f = g2. Then f(S) = g(S)2 = g(S)∗g(S) ≥ 0. Conversely if f(S) ≥ 0, then f(~σ(S)) = σ(f(S)) ⊂ 0; 1), (Recall that put a self adjoint operator S, then σ(S) ⊂ [α; β], where α = inff(Sx; x); jjxjj = 1g; β = supf(Sx; x); jjxjj = 1g.) Thus f ≥ 0. Corollary 2.3. S is a self adjoint operator. Then S is bounded if and only if σ(S) is bounded. Proof. If S bounded, σ(S) ⊂ [α; β], where α = inff(Sx; x); jjxjj = 1g; β = supf(Sx; x); jjxjj = 1g is bounded. Conversely suppose σ(S) is bounded. Let f(s) ≡ s. Then f 2 C(σ(S)). Moreover, (f − λ)rλ = e,λ 2 ρ(S), so (f(S) − λ)Rλ = Rλ(f(S) − λ) = I. Therefore f(S) − λ = S − λ, so S = f(S) 2 B(H). Now, we have functional calculus which have only continuous functions, so we extends this calculus for some general functions. Definition 2.4. First, let σ be a closed subset of R, and let A0(σ) be the algebra continuous complex valued function on σ which is 0 at 1. Next, let A+(σ) be the set of bounded functions on σ which are pointwise limits of increasing sequence of non-negative functions in A0. Finally, let A1 be the algebra generated by A1. If σ is a bounded, A0 equal to algebra of continuous function C(σ). All bounded continuous non- negative functions are written as pointwise limits of increasing sequence of non-negative functions, so A+ contains all of them. Similarly, A1 contained all bounded continuous function on σ. Write fn % f is real valued and ffn(s)gn is increase sequence, all s 2 σ. Definition 2.5. fSg ⊂ B(H) is called full if _R(S) = H −1 Note that if S is self adjoint, f(λ − S) gλ is full. Then, next lemma is essential to extend functional calculus. Lemma 2.6. Let σ is a closed subset in R, and let A0 : A0(σ) !B(H) be an isometric algebra isomorphism which preserve adjoints. Then A0 has a unique extension to an algebra homomorphism A1 : A1 !B(H) with property that if ffng ⊂ A+ and fn % f 2 A+, then A1(fn) ! A1(f). jj jj ≤ j j Moreover, the extention A1 also preserving adjoint and order, and A1(f) sups2σ f(s) . The image of A0 is full if and only if A1(e) = I. Proof. First, the same argument in theorem 2.1 shows that A0 preserves order. Now, we will define A1(f) which has uniqueness step by step, and then proof the other relation. Suppose 0 ≤ fn % f, where fn 2 A0, f is bounded. Then fA0(fn)g is a bounded increase sequence of operators in B(H), so A0(fn) ! S 2 B(H). Suppose also gn 2 A0; 0 ≤ gn % f. Then A0(gn) ! T 2 B(H). Let fn ^ gm(s) := minffn(s); gm(s)g. Then fn ^ gm % fn as m ! 1. These functions are continuous and 0 at 1 (if σ is unbounded), so the convergence is uniform. Thus T = lim A0(gm) ≥ lim A0(fn ^ gm) = A0(fn), all n, so T ≥ S. Also we get S ≥ T . Therefore the 3 limitS = T =: A1(f) is independent of the approximating sequence. If f 2 A0 \A+, set fn ≡ f. Then A1(f) = lim A0(fn) = A0(f). Suppose fn; gn 2 A0, 0 ≤ fn % f 2 A+, 0 ≤ gn % g 2 A+.

  • Inverse and Implicit Function Theorems for Noncommutative
    Inverse and Implicit Function Theorems for Noncommutative Functions on Operator Domains Mark E. Mancuso Abstract Classically, a noncommutative function is defined on a graded domain of tuples of square matrices. In this note, we introduce a notion of a noncommutative function defined on a domain Ω ⊂ B(H)d, where H is an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. Inverse and implicit function theorems in this setting are established. When these operatorial noncommutative functions are suitably continuous in the strong operator topology, a noncommutative dilation-theoretic construction is used to show that the assumptions on their derivatives may be relaxed from boundedness below to injectivity. Keywords: Noncommutive functions, operator noncommutative functions, free anal- ysis, inverse and implicit function theorems, strong operator topology, dilation theory. MSC (2010): Primary 46L52; Secondary 47A56, 47J07. INTRODUCTION Polynomials in d noncommuting indeterminates can naturally be evaluated on d-tuples of square matrices of any size. The resulting function is graded (tuples of n × n ma- trices are mapped to n × n matrices) and preserves direct sums and similarities. Along with polynomials, noncommutative rational functions and power series, the convergence of which has been studied for example in [9], [14], [15], serve as prototypical examples of a more general class of functions called noncommutative functions. The theory of non- commutative functions finds its origin in the 1973 work of J. L. Taylor [17], who studied arXiv:1804.01040v2 [math.FA] 7 Aug 2019 the functional calculus of noncommuting operators. Roughly speaking, noncommutative functions are to polynomials in noncommuting variables as holomorphic functions from complex analysis are to polynomials in commuting variables.

  • The Notion of Observable and the Moment Problem for ∗-Algebras and Their GNS Representations
    The notion of observable and the moment problem for ∗-algebras and their GNS representations Nicol`oDragoa, Valter Morettib Department of Mathematics, University of Trento, and INFN-TIFPA via Sommarive 14, I-38123 Povo (Trento), Italy. [email protected], [email protected] February, 17, 2020 Abstract We address some usually overlooked issues concerning the use of ∗-algebras in quantum theory and their physical interpretation. If A is a ∗-algebra describing a quantum system and ! : A ! C a state, we focus in particular on the interpretation of !(a) as expectation value for an algebraic observable a = a∗ 2 A, studying the problem of finding a probability n measure reproducing the moments f!(a )gn2N. This problem enjoys a close relation with the selfadjointness of the (in general only symmetric) operator π!(a) in the GNS representation of ! and thus it has important consequences for the interpretation of a as an observable. We n provide physical examples (also from QFT) where the moment problem for f!(a )gn2N does not admit a unique solution. To reduce this ambiguity, we consider the moment problem n ∗ (a) for the sequences f!b(a )gn2N, being b 2 A and !b(·) := !(b · b). Letting µ!b be a n solution of the moment problem for the sequence f!b(a )gn2N, we introduce a consistency (a) relation on the family fµ!b gb2A. We prove a 1-1 correspondence between consistent families (a) fµ!b gb2A and positive operator-valued measures (POVM) associated with the symmetric (a) operator π!(a). In particular there exists a unique consistent family of fµ!b gb2A if and only if π!(a) is maximally symmetric.

INTRODUCTION In this paper a functional calculus for an n-tuple of noncommuting self-adjoint operators on a Banach space will be proposed and examined. The von Neumann spectral theorem for self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space leads to a functional calculus which assigns to a self- adjoint operator A and a real Borel-measurable function f of a real variable, another self-adjoint operatorf(A). This calculus generalizes in a natural way to an n-tuple of com- muting self-adjoint operators A = (A, ,..., A,), because their spectral families commute.

  • Riesz-Like Bases in Rigged Hilbert Spaces, in Preparation [14] Bonet, J., Fern´Andez, C., Galbis, A
    RIESZ-LIKE BASES IN RIGGED HILBERT SPACES GIORGIA BELLOMONTE AND CAMILLO TRAPANI Abstract. The notions of Bessel sequence, Riesz-Fischer sequence and Riesz basis are generalized to a rigged Hilbert space D[t] ⊂H⊂D×[t×]. A Riesz- like basis, in particular, is obtained by considering a sequence {ξn}⊂D which is mapped by a one-to-one continuous operator T : D[t] → H[k · k] into an orthonormal basis of the central Hilbert space H of the triplet. The operator T is, in general, an unbounded operator in H. If T has a bounded inverse then the rigged Hilbert space is shown to be equivalent to a triplet of Hilbert spaces. 1. Introduction Riesz bases (i.e., sequences of elements ξn of a Hilbert space which are trans- formed into orthonormal bases by some bounded{ } operator withH bounded inverse) often appear as eigenvectors of nonself-adjoint operators. The simplest situation is the following one. Let H be a self-adjoint operator with discrete spectrum defined on a subset D(H) of the Hilbert space . Assume, to be more definite, that each H eigenvalue λn is simple. Then the corresponding eigenvectors en constitute an orthonormal basis of . If X is another operator similar to H,{ i.e.,} there exists a bounded operator T withH bounded inverse T −1 which intertwines X and H, in the sense that T : D(H) D(X) and XT ξ = T Hξ, for every ξ D(H), then, as it is → ∈ easily seen, the vectors ϕn with ϕn = Ten are eigenvectors of X and constitute a Riesz basis for .

  • The Holomorphic Functional Calculus Approach to Operator Semigroups
    THE HOLOMORPHIC FUNCTIONAL CALCULUS APPROACH TO OPERATOR SEMIGROUPS CHARLES BATTY, MARKUS HAASE, AND JUNAID MUBEEN In honour of B´elaSz.-Nagy (29 July 1913 { 21 December 1998) on the occasion of his centenary Abstract. In this article we construct a holomorphic functional calculus for operators of half-plane type and show how key facts of semigroup theory (Hille- Yosida and Gomilko-Shi-Feng generation theorems, Trotter-Kato approxima- tion theorem, Euler approximation formula, Gearhart-Pr¨usstheorem) can be elegantly obtained in this framework. Then we discuss the notions of bounded H1-calculus and m-bounded calculus on half-planes and their relation to weak bounded variation conditions over vertical lines for powers of the resolvent. Finally we discuss the Hilbert space case, where semigroup generation is char- acterised by the operator having a strong m-bounded calculus on a half-plane. 1. Introduction The theory of strongly continuous semigroups is more than 60 years old, with the fundamental result of Hille and Yosida dating back to 1948. Several monographs and textbooks cover material which is now canonical, each of them having its own particular point of view. One may focus entirely on the semigroup, and consider the generator as a derived concept (as in [12]) or one may start with the generator and view the semigroup as the inverse Laplace transform of the resolvent (as in [2]). Right from the beginning, functional calculus methods played an important role in semigroup theory. Namely, given a C0-semigroup T = (T (t))t≥0 which is uni- formly bounded, say, one can form the averages Z 1 Tµ := T (s) µ(ds) (strong integral) 0 for µ 2 M(R+) a complex Radon measure of bounded variation on R+ = [0; 1).

  • A Nonstandard Proof of the Spectral Theorem for Unbounded Self-Adjoint
    A NONSTANDARD PROOF OF THE SPECTRAL THEOREM FOR UNBOUNDED SELF-ADJOINT OPERATORS ISAAC GOLDBRING Abstract. We generalize Moore’s nonstandard proof of the Spectral theorem for bounded self-adjoint operators to the case of unbounded operators. The key step is to use a definition of the nonstandard hull of an internally bounded self-adjoint operator due to Raab. 1. Introduction Throughout this note, all Hilbert spaces will be over the complex numbers and (following the convention in physics) inner products are conjugate-linear in the first coordinate. The goal of this note is to provide a nonstandard proof of the Spectral theorem for unbounded self-adjoint operators: Theorem 1.1. Suppose that A is an unbounded self-adjoint operator on the Hilbert space H. Then there is a projection-valued measure P : Borel(R) B(H) such that A = id dP. → ZR Here, Borel(R) denotes the σ-algebra of Borel subsets of R and id denotes the identity function on R. All of the terms appearing in the previous theorem will arXiv:2104.01949v1 [math.FA] 5 Apr 2021 be defined precisely in the next section. We refer to the expression A = R id dP as a spectral resolution of A. Thus, the theorem says that every unboundedR self-adjoint operator admits a spectral resolution. In fact, this spectral resolu- tion is unique (that is, the projection-valued measure yielding the resolution is unique), although we will not address the uniqueness issue here. The Spectral theorem for unbounded operators is especially important in quantum mechan- ics, for it provides one with the probability distributions for measuring observ- ables with continuous spectra such as position and momentum.

    Spectrum (functional analysis) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrum_(functional_analysis) Spectrum (functional analysis) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In functional analysis, the concept of the spectrum of a bounded operator is a generalisation of the concept of eigenvalues for matrices. Specifically, a complex number λ is said to be in the spectrum of a bounded linear operator T if λI − T 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, This has no eigenvalues, since if Rx=λx then by expanding this expression we see that x1=0, x2=0, etc. On the other hand 0 is in the spectrum because the operator R − 0 (i.e. R itself) is not invertible: it is not surjective since any vector with non-zero first component is not in its range. In fact every bounded linear operator on a complex Banach space must have a non-empty spectrum. The notion of spectrum extends to densely-defined unbounded operators. In this case a complex number λ is said to be in the spectrum of such an operator T:D→X (where D is dense in X) if there is no bounded inverse (λI − T)−1:X→D.
