INTRODUCTION The aim of the present note is to extend some classical inverse and implicit function theorems to the nonsmooth situation. Let X and Y be normed spaces and F be a set-valued function acting between them. If a point Ž.x, y belongs to the graph of F, then the modulus of surjection of F at Ž.x, y introduced by Ioffewx 20, 23 is defined by SurŽ.Ž.F, x, yt[supÄ4r G 0:By Ž.Ž.,r;FBxŽ.,t .

As it has been pointed out by Ioffe, a first order local surjection theorem always implies solvability of the inclusion y g FxŽ.under small perturbations y of Ãy. It also turns out that a necessary condition in extremal problems can always be obtained in the form that the constant of surjection is zero for a certain set-valued function obtained from the data of the mathematical program. In the terminology by Penot inwx 35 , a set-valued function F with positive constant of surjection in a neighborhood of Ž.ÃÃx, y is called open around F at a linear rate. It is one of the main results of Penotwx 35 that this property is equivalent to the metric regularity of F at Ž.ÃÃx, y and also to the pseudo-Lipschitzian property of Fy1 at Ž.ŽÃÃy, x . For special cases of this result, see Borweinwx 6 .. The notion of metric regularity was stressed first by Robinsonwx 38 : The set-valued function F is called metrically regular around Ž.ŽÃÃx, y where Ãx g Fy Ž.. à , if there exist positive numbers a, b, g and c ) 0 such that 1 dxŽ.,FyŽ.y FcdŽ.

The classical surjection theorem of Graveswx 17 and Lyusternik wx 29 states that if F s Ä4f where f is a continuously differentiable function X near ÃÃx and fxŽ.is surjective then the constant of surjection of F s Ä4f at ŽŽ..ÃÃx,fx is positive. The sequential procedure of the proof by Lyusternik has been extended in the work of Dmitruk, Milyutin, and Osmolovskiwx 11 . Another approach to surjection theorems is due to Ioffewx 19 , who initiated the application of the Ekeland variational principle in this field. The first application of this principle to set-valued functions is likely due to Aubin wx1 .Ž See also the monograph of Aubin and Frankowskawx 2 .. For further works, where Ekeland's principle is used andror the connec- tion between local surjection, metric regularity, and pseudo-Lipschitzianity 204 ZSOLT PALES is studied, we refer to Borwein and Zhuangwx 7 , Cominetti w 10 x , Frankowska wx14 , Ioffe w 20]22 x , Jourani and Thibault w 25, 26 x , Mordukhovich w 31, 32 x , Penotwx 34, 35 , and Thibault wx 40 . We mention that, in the finite dimensional case, the complete descrip- tion of local openness, metric regularity, and Lipschitzian properties has recently been found by Mordukhovichwx 31 . The characterization is given in terms of the nonconvex subdifferential invented by Mordukhovich. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the Lipschitzian invertibility of single-valued functions in finite dimensional setting has been also found by Kummerwx 27, 28 . Here, Thibault's directional derivative is used to express the result. In the infinite dimensional case, in order to handle the nonsmoothness of a given single valued or set-valued function F we need other substitutes of differentiability of functions. We shall use strict prederivatives as first order approximants to nonsmooth functions. The use of this notion was initiated by Ioffewx 20, 21 . Y A homogeneous set-valued function A : X ª 2 is called a strict pre- deri¨ati¨e of the set-valued function F at Ãx if, for all « ) 0, there exists d ) 0 such that XYXYXY FxŽ.;Fx Ž .qA Žxyx .q«5xyxB5Y XY for x , x g BxŽ.Ã,d in the domain of F.If Fis a single valued function, that is, F s Ä4f , then we also say that A is a strict prederivative for f at Ãx. Then the above inclusion reduces to XY XY XY fxŽ.gfx Ž .qA Žxyx .q«5xyxB5Y. The principle of obtaining a surjection theorem for the function F is that we assume the local first order approximability of F by a strict prederivative A, and then we try to show that the properties of A can be transferred to F. In many cases, the strict prederivative A can be generated by a family of linear operators in the following sense: There exists a family A ; LŽ.X, Y such that AŽ.x s Ä4Ax : A g A .IfAis a family of operators, then we say that it is a strict prederivative of F at Ãx if the set-valued map A defined above is a strict prederivative. From now on, we shall not use distinct notation for A and A. The question whether a homogeneous set-valued function A with closed convex values can be represented by a convex family of linear operators can be tested using the results of Pales wx 33 . If F s Ä4f , where f is a locally Lipschitz function, then the set of operators A g LŽ.X, Y such that 55A F L Žwhere L is the local Lipschitz constant of f at ÃÃx. forms a strict prederivative for f at x. Conversely, if a bounded strict prederivative exists then f must be locally Lipschitz at Ãx.

We note that ­ fx Ž.à is never empty, since f is nondifferentiable only on a set of measure zero by Rademacher's differentiability theorem.. It is knownŽ see Ioffewx 20, Corollary 9.11, Proposition 10.9 that Clarke's generalized Jacobian is a strict prederivative for locally Lipschitz functions. We shall refer to this fact later, when we specialize our results to the finite dimensional setting. A function f admits a one element strict prederivative at Ãx if and only if it is strictly Frechet differentiable, therefore the strict prederivative is the extension of strict Frechet derivative to the case when the latter does not exist. We note that continuous GateauxŽ. Hadamard, Frechet differentia- bility in a neighborhood of a point always implies the strict Frechet differentiability at the point in question. We shall need two numbers associated to any family of linear operators.

  • 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.

Suppose σ(b) has at most countably many connected components. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for b to possess a discontinuous functional calculus. Throughout, let B be a commutative Banach algebra with unit 1 and let rad (B) denote the radical of B. Let b be a fixed element of B. Let έ? denote the LF space of germs of functions analytic in a neighborhood of σ(6). By a functional calculus for b we mean an algebra homomorphism θr from έ? to B such that θ\z) = b and θ\l) = 1. We do not require θr to be continuous.

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. In particular, if v is an eigenvector of A, ,..., A, with eigenvalues A, ,..., A, , respectively, and f a continuous function of n real variables, f(A 1 ,..., A,) u = f(b , . U 0.

  • 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).

  • On Compatibility Properties of Quantum Observables Represented by Positive Operator-Valued Measures
    On Compatibility Properties of Quantum Observables represented by Positive Operator-Valued Measures Bachelorthesis Mathematics Radboud University Nijmegen Yari Kraak Supervisor: Klaas Landsman July 2018 Abstract In a rigorous post-von Neumann mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics, ob- servables are represented by normalized positive operator-valued measures instead of self-adjoint operators. In this formalism, the notion of joint measurability of two ob- servables is more complex then in the von Neumann formalism, where observables are jointly measurable if and only if they commute. We look into various notions of compatibility, among which joint measurability, coexistence, commutativity, and joint measurability of binarizations, and investigate for which classes of observables these are equivalent.

But in certain cases there are observables that cannot be fully described by self-adjoint operators [7, 9, 15, 17]. An example of such an observable is the covariant phase space observable in a single-mode optical field. Therefore, a new formalism of quantum mechanics has been formulated, where observables are repre- sented by positive operator-valued measures (POVMs).

  • The Functional Calculus Approach to the Spectral Theorem
    The Functional Calculus Approach to the Spectral Theorem Markus Haase1 Kiel University Mathematisches Seminar Ludewig-Meyn-Str.4 24118 Kiel, Germany Abstract A consistent functional calculus approach to the spectral theorem for strongly commuting normal operators on Hilbert spaces is presented. In contrast to the common approaches using projection-valued measures or multiplication oper- ators, here the functional calculus is not treated as a subordinate but as the central concept. Based on five simple axioms for a “measurable functional calculus”, the theory of such calculi is developed in detail, including spectral theory, uniqueness results and construction principles. Finally, the functional calculus form of the spectral theorem is stated and proved, with some proof variants being discussed. Keywords: Spectral theorem, measurable functional calculus, Fuglede’s theorem 2000 MSC: 47B15, 46A60 1. Introduction The spectral theorem (for normal or self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space) is certainly one of the most important results of 20th century mathematics. It comes in different forms, two of which are the most widely used: the multiplica- tion operator (MO) form and the one using projection-valued measures (PVMs). arXiv:2003.06130v2 [math.FA] 25 Sep 2020 Associated with this variety is a discussion about “What does the spectral the- orem say?”(Halmos [9]), where the pro’s and con’s of the different approaches are compared. In this article, we would like to add a slightly different stance to this debate by advocating a consistent functional calculus approach to the spectral theorem. Since in any exposition of the spectral theorem one also will find results about functional calculus, some words of explanation are in order.

  • The Holomorphic Functional Calculus Approach to Operator Semigroups
    Chapter 8 The Holomorphic Functional Calculus Approach to Operator Semigroups In Chapter 6 we have associated with a given C0-semigroup an operator, called its generator, and a functional calculus, the Hille{Phillips calculus. Here we address the converse problem: which operators are generators? The classical answer to this question and one of our goals in this chapter is the so- called Hille{Yosida theorem, which gives a characterization of the generator property in terms of resolvent estimates. However, instead of following the standard texts like [1], we shall approach the problem via a suitable functional calculus construction. Our method is generic, in that we learn here how to use Cauchy integrals over infinite con- tours in order to define functional calculi for unbounded operators satisfying resolvent estimates. (The same approach shall be taken later for defining holomorphic functional calculi for sectorial and strip-type operators.) This chapter is heavily based on the first part of [2], which in turn goes back to the unpublished note [3]. 8.1 Operators of Half-Plane Type Recall from Chapter 6 that if B generates a C0-semigroup of type (M; !), then s(B) is contained in the closed half-plane [ Re z ≤ ! ] and M kR(λ, B)k ≤ (Re λ > !): Re λ − ! In particular, if ! < α then R(·;A) is uniformly bounded for Re λ ≥ α. This \spectral data" is our model for what we shall call below an operator of \left half-plane type". Recall, however, that the associated Hille-Phillips calculus for the semi- group generated by B is actually a calculus for the negative generator 135 136 8 The Holomorphic Functional Calculus Approach to Operator Semigroups A := −B.
