Generalized derivation and numerical range

From MaRDI portal





Let \(L(H)\) denote the algebra of operators on a Hilbert space \(H\), and let \(\delta_{A,B}: L(H)\rightarrow L(H)\) denote the derivation \(\delta_{A,B}(X) = AX - XB\). The authors show that if \(A -\lambda\) and \(B - \lambda \in L(H)\) are normaloid for all complex numbers \(\lambda\), then the numerical range of \(\delta_{A,B}\) coincides with the convex hull of the spectrum of \(\delta_{A,B}\). The authors also consider some conditions under which the identity map is in the closure of the range of \(\delta_A(=\delta_{A,A})\).
