Berezin number inequalities for operators

Abstract

Abstract The Berezin transform à of an operator A, acting on the reproducing kernel Hilbert space ℋ = ℋ (Ω) over some (non-empty) set Ω, is defined by Ã(λ) = 〉Aǩ λ, ǩ λ〈 (λ ∈ Ω), where k⌢λ=kλ‖ kλ ‖ ${\mathord{\buildrel{\lower3pt\hbox{$\scriptscriptstyle\frown$}}\over k} _\lambda } = {{{k_\lambda }} \over {\left\| {{k_\lambda }} \right\|}}$ is the normalized reproducing kernel of ℋ. The Berezin number of an operator A is defined by ber(A)=supλ∈Ω| A˜(λ) |=supλ∈Ω| 〈 Ak⌢λ,k⌢λ 〉 | ${\bf{ber}}{\rm{(}}A) = \mathop {\sup }\limits_{\lambda \in \Omega } \left| {\tilde A(\lambda )} \right| = \mathop {\sup }\limits_{\lambda \in \Omega } \left| {\left\langle {A{{\mathord{\buildrel{\lower3pt\hbox{$\scriptscriptstyle\frown$}}\over k} }_\lambda },{{\mathord{\buildrel{\lower3pt\hbox{$\scriptscriptstyle\frown$}}\over k} }_\lambda }} \right\rangle } \right|$ . In this paper, we prove some Berezin number inequalities. Among other inequalities, it is shown that if A, B, X are bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space ℋ, then ber(AX±XA)⩽ber12(A*A+AA*)ber12(X*X+XX*) $${\bf{ber}}(AX \pm XA) \leqslant {\bf{be}}{{\bf{r}}^{{1 \over 2}}}\left( {A*A + AA*} \right){\bf{be}}{{\bf{r}}^{{1 \over 2}}}\left( {X*X + XX*} \right)$$ and ber2(A*XB)⩽‖ X ‖2ber(A*A)ber(B*B). $${\bf{be}}{{\bf{r}}^2}({A^*}XB) \leqslant {\left\| X \right\|^2}{\bf{ber}}({A^*}A){\bf{ber}}({B^*}B).$$ We also prove the multiplicative inequality ber(AB)⩽ber(A)ber(B) $${\bf{ber}}(AB){\bf{ber}}(A){\bf{ber}}(B)$$
