Recently, Takahashi has introduced the James and von Neumann-Jordan type constants. In this paper, we present some sufficient conditions for uniform normal structure and therefore the fixed point property of a Banach space in terms of the James and von Neumann-Jordan type constants and the Ptolemy constant. Our main results of the paper significantly generalize and improve many known results in...

For von Neumann algebras M,N not isomorphic to C C and without type I2 summands, we show that for an order-isomorphism f : AbSub M! AbSub N between the posets of abelian von Neumann subalgebras of M and N , there is a unique Jordan ⇤-isomorphism g : M! N with the image g[S] equal to f(S) for each abelian von Neumann subalgebra S of M. The converse also holds. This shows the Jordan structure of ...

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.

In two papers entitled “On a new foundation [Neue Begründung] of quantum mechanics,” Pascual Jordan (1927b,g) presented his version of what came to be known as the Dirac-Jordan statistical transformation theory. As an alternative that avoids the mathematical difficulties facing the approach of Jordan and Paul A. M. Dirac (1927), John von Neumann (1927a) developed the modern Hilbert space formal...

For any λ ≥ 1, Rλ is Banaś-Fra̧czek space, the exact value of the Jordan–von Neumann constant CNJ(Rλ) is investigated. By careful calculations, CNJ(Rλ) = 2− 1 λ2 is given.

In this paper, we study the generalized Jordan-von Neumann constant and obtain its estimates for the normal structure coefficient N(X), improving the known results of S. Dhompongsa.
