This paper investigates the effect of structure-preserving perturbations on the eigenvalues of linearly and nonlinearly structured eigenvalue problems. Particular attention is paid to structures that form Jordan algebras, Lie algebras, and automorphism groups of a scalar product. Bounds and computable expressions for structured eigenvalue condition numbers are derived for these classes of matri...

Let Φ be a trace-preserving, positivity-preserving linear map on the algebra of complex 2 × 2 matrices, and let Ω be any finite-dimensional completely positive map. For p = 2 and p ≥ 4, we prove that the maximal p-norm of the product map Φ⊗Ω is the product of the maximal p-norms of Φ and Ω. Restricting Φ to the class of completely positive maps, this settles the multiplicativity question for al...

Let A and B be Banach algebras with bounded approximate identities let Φ:A→B a surjective continuous linear map which preserves two-sided zero products (i.e., Φ(a)Φ(b)=Φ(b)Φ(a)=0 whenever ab=ba=0). We show that Φ is weighted Jordan homomorphism provided product determined weakly amenable. These conditions are in particular fulfilled when the group algebra L1(G) G any locally compact group. also...

Let X,Y be locally compact Hausdorff spaces and M,N be Banach algebras. Let θ : C0(X,M) → C0(Y,N ) be a zero-product preserving bounded linear map with dense range. We show that θ is given by a continuous field of algebra homomorphisms from M into N if N is irreducible. As corollaries, such a surjective θ arises from an algebra homomorphism, provided thatM is a W*-algebra and N is a semi-simple...

We propose a new approach to analyzing dynamical systems that combine hyperbolic and non-hyperbolic (“center”) behavior, e.g. partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. A number of applications illustrate its power. We find that any ergodic automorphism of the 4-torus with two eigenvalues in the unit circle is stably Bernoulli among symplectic maps. Indeed, any nearby symplectic map has no zero Lyap...

In this paper we characterize the left Jordan derivations on Banach algebras. Also, it is shown that every bounded linear map $d:mathcal Ato mathcal M$ from a von Neumann algebra $mathcal A$ into a Banach $mathcal A-$module $mathcal M$ with property that $d(p^2)=2pd(p)$ for every projection $p$ in $mathcal A$ is a left Jordan derivation.

Let $mathcal{A}$ and $mathcal{B}$ be two $C^{*}$-algebras such that $mathcal{B}$ is prime. In this paper, we investigate the additivity of maps $Phi$ from $mathcal{A}$ onto $mathcal{B}$ that are bijective, unital and satisfy $Phi(AP+eta PA^{*})=Phi(A)Phi(P)+eta Phi(P)Phi(A)^{*},$ for all $Ainmathcal{A}$ and $Pin{P_{1},I_{mathcal{A}}-P_{1}}$ where $P_{1}$ is a nontrivial projection in $mathcal{A...

In this paper we investigate the Lipschitz equivalence of dust-like self-similar sets in Rd. One of the fundamental results by Falconer and Marsh [On the Lipschitz equivalence of Cantor sets, Mathematika, 39 (1992), 223– 233] establishes conditions for Lipschitz equivalence based on the algebraic properties of the contraction ratios of the self-similar sets. In this paper we extend the study by...
