Abstract:ABSTRACT. We study properties of Jordan representations of H-dissipative operators in a finite-dimensional indefinite H-space. An algebraic proof is given of the fact that such operators always have maximal semidefinite invariant subspaces.KEy WORDS: indefinite metric, dissipative operators, Jordan representations, invariant subspaces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
