Tracial numerical ranges and linear dependence of operators
Electron. J. Linear Algebra 22, 22-52, electronic only (2011)
Summary
Summary: Linear dependence of two Hilbert space operators is expressed in terms of equality in modulus of certain sesquilinear and quadratic forms associated with the operators. The forms are based on generalized numerical ranges.
