A note on the convexity of the indefinite joint numerical range
نویسندگان
چکیده
This note investigates the convexity of the indefinite joint numerical range of a tuple of Hermitian matrices in the setting of Krein spaces. Its main result is a necessary and sufficient condition for convexity of this set. A new notion of “quasi-convexity” is introduced as a refinement of pseudo-convexity.

Some results on the polynomial numerical hulls of matrices
In this note we characterize polynomial numerical hulls of matrices $A in M_n$ such that$A^2$ is Hermitian. Also, we consider normal matrices $A in M_n$ whose $k^{th}$ power are semidefinite. For such matriceswe show that $V^k(A)=sigma(A)$.
متن کاملGENERALIZED JOINT HIGHER-RANK NUMERICAL RANGE
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...
متن کاملGeneralized numerical ranges of matrix polynomials
In this paper, we introduce the notions of C-numerical range and C-spectrum of matrix polynomials. Some algebraic and geometrical properties are investigated. We also study the relationship between the C-numerical range of a matrix polynomial and the joint C-numerical range of its coefficients.
متن کاملEla Shells of Matrices in Indefinite Inner Product Spaces
The notion of the shell of a Hilbert space operator, which is a useful generalization (proposed by Wielandt) of the numerical range, is extended to operators in spaces with an indefinite inner product. For the most part, finite dimensional spaces are considered. Geometric properties of shells (convexity, boundedness, being a subset of a line, etc.) are described, as well as shells of operators ...
