Binormal Operator and *-Aluthge Transformation

Let T = U｜T｜ be the polar decomposition of a bounded linear operator T on a Hilbert space. The transformation T = ｜T｜^1/2 U｜T｜^1/2 is called the Aluthge transformation and Tn means the n-th Aluthge transformation. Similarly, the transformation T（＊）=｜T＊｜^1/2 U｜T＊｜＆1/2 is called the ＊-Aluthge transformation and Tn^（＊） means the n-th ＊-Aluthge transformation. In this paper, firstly, we show that T（＊） = UV｜T^（＊）｜ is the polar decomposition of T（＊）, where ｜T｜^1/2 ｜T^＊｜^1/2 = V｜｜T｜^1/2 ｜T^＊｜^1/2｜ is the polar decomposition. Secondly, we show that T（＊） = U｜T^（＊）｜ if and only if T is binormal, i.e., [｜T｜, ｜T^＊｜]=0, where [A, B] = AB - BA for any operator A and B. Lastly, we show that Tn^（＊） is binormal for all non-negative integer n if and only if T is centered, and so on.

极分解与广义*-Aluthge变换

首先给出了Hilbert空间上有界线性算子极分解的的若干性质.其次指出广义的*-Aluthge变换与*-Aluthge变换具有许多相似性质;例如,T_(α,β)^((*))=U|T_(α,β)^((*))|当且仅当T是双正规的,即[|T|,|T*|]=0,其中对任意两个算子A和B,[A,B]=AB-BA.
