Gauging anomalous unitary operators

Generalized Unitary Operators

1. Let C be the complex field and T be the unit circle { \ £ C : | \ | = 1} . For a non-negative integer m or for m = oo, let OCT) be the space of all m-times continuously differentiable functions on T. (Here we consider T as a C°°-manifold in the natural way. Thus, any / £ C m ( r ) can be identified with an m-times continuously differentiable periodic function f (6) of a real variable 0 with ...

Unitary Operators Preserving Wavelets

We characterize a special class of unitary operators that preserve orthonormal wavelets. In the process we also prove that symmetric wavelet sets cover the real line.

Localization for Random Unitary Operators

We consider unitary analogs of 1−dimensional Anderson models on l2(Z) defined by the product Uω = DωS where S is a deterministic unitary and Dω is a diagonal matrix of i.i.d. random phases. The operator S is an absolutely continuous band matrix which depends on a parameter controlling the size of its off-diagonal elements. We prove that the spectrum of Uω is pure point almost surely for all val...

Operator Radii and Unitary Operators

Let ρ ≥ 1 and w ρ (A) be the operator radius of a linear operator A. Suppose m is a positive integer. It is shown that for a given invertible linear operator A acting on a Hilbert space, one has w ρ (A −m) ≥ w ρ (A) −m. The equality holds if and only if A is a multiple of a unitary operator.
