Boundedness of a matrix operator in a norm

I would like to ask a simple question. How do I show that a matrix is a bounded linear operator, for example this matrix $$A=\begin{bmatrix} t~~0\\ 0~~\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} \end{bmatrix}$$ I know that ...

Multiplicity of bilateral shift on a Banach space

Let $\mathbb{X}$ be a Banach space. A bijective linear map $V: \mathbb{X} \to \mathbb{X}$ is said to be a bilateral shift if there is a closed subspace $\mathbb{L}$ of $\mathbb{X}$ such that $\mathbb{...

Prove that for every $n \in \mathbb{N}$, the mapping $A_n$ is a bounded linear operator from $C[0,1]$ to $C[0,1]$ and calculate its norm.

Let $C[0,1]$ be a normed space equipped with the norm $\|\cdot\|_\infty$, and let for every $n \in \mathbb{N}$, the mapping $A_n$ be given by the prescription $ (A_n(f))(x) = \begin{cases} f(x), &...

We are interested in finding for which $\lambda$ the operator $A - \lambda I$ is not surjective.

We are in the space $X = C[1/2, b]$ for some $b < 1$. We are interested in finding for which $\lambda$ the operator $A - \lambda I$ is not surjective. The operator $A: X \to X$ is given as $(Af)(x) ...

Thus $MV - VM = V^2$. So the spectrum of $V^2$ is $\sigma(V^2) = (\sigma(V))^2=0$. Why??

I am curious if this statement holds (it doesn't make much sense to me, but it was written in solutions in this form): $\sigma(A)=0\implies\sigma(A^2)=(\sigma(A))^2=0.$ Can anybody explain to me why ...

Reference for isomorphism theorem for Banach spaces

Let $X,Y$ be Banach spaces, and a linear continuous operator $T:X \rightarrow Y$ then we have that, denote by $N =\text{ker }T$ and by $\text{Ran }T$ the closed range of T then, $$ X / N \cong \text{...

Vector Norm $\vert\vert v\vert\vert_V$ expressed as supremum of $\vert Lv\vert$ over all bounded operators L with $\vert\vert L\vert\vert_{op}\leq 1$

Let $V$ be a normed vector space with norm $\vert\vert\cdot\vert\vert_V$. How can I show that for all $v\in V$ we have $$\vert\vert v\vert\vert_V = \sup\{\vert Lv\vert \:\colon\: L\in \text{Hom}(V,\...

unbounded operator satisfying $||T(x_n)|| \to \infty$

Let $E,F$ be a normed space, and $T:D(T) (\subset E) \rightarrow F$ be a densely defined unbounded linear operator. By unbounedness, for all $x \in E$, there is a sequence $(x_n) \subset D(T)$ such ...

Estimate norm of convolution operator

I'm trying to find the operator norm for $T: L^2([0,1])\to L^2([0,1])$, defined as $Tf(x)=\int_{[0,1]}|\sin(x-y)|^{-\alpha}f(y)dy$, where $0<\alpha<1$. Using an upper bound on $|\sin(x)|\geq |x|/...

How can you show that the trace class norm $\|A\|_1:=\mathrm{Tr}(|A|)$ satisfies the triangle inequality?

Exact wording of my question is a bit oxymoronic, since a norm by definition is a metric, and thus requires proper context. Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space over the field $\mathbb{K}$. I am aware ...

Functional doesn't reach its norm [duplicate]

I'm trying to prove that for $X=L_1([0,1])$ and the linear functional $\phi(f)=\int_0^1tf(t)dt$, the linear functional doesn't reach its norm. I already figured out that $\|\phi\|\leq1$, however I don'...

Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for an Operator to be Zero [closed]

Let $H$ be a Hilbert space, $<,>$ be its norm, and $A:H\to H$ be an operator. Is it true $A=0 \Leftrightarrow\langle\Psi, A \Psi\rangle=0\ \left(^\forall \Psi\in H\right)$?

Compute the norm of the operator $A$.

Let the operator $A: X \rightarrow X(X=\{f \in C([0,3]) ; f(3)=0\})$ be given by the the formula $$ (A f)(x)=(x+5) f(x) $$ Compute the norm of the operator $A$. I have done the following to solve the ...
