For bounded operators, the theory of the joint numerical range has been developed by various authors [1,2,3,4,5]. Especially, the properties of commuting normal n-tuples are discussed in detail. Our purpose here is to show that many results in the above references still hold in the case of unbounded normal operators (see Theorem 2.3, Corrollary 3.5, Theorem 4.1, Theorem 4.2). Besides, the operator algebras are closely related to the theory of joint spectrum and joint numerical ranges in the boundedcase (cf. [1,3]). How about unbounded operators? It seems that one must consider unbounded operator algebras. Some work has been done in this direction for the joint spectrum of unbounded normal operators [9]. In the last section of this paper, we provide some intimate relations between the joint numerical range and the unbounded operator algebras for unbounded normal operators.

Our purpose is to study the relationship between the joint numerical range and joint essential numerical range. We give an example of an operator such that the set of all extreme points of the closure of its essential numerical range is not a subset of the set of all exti:eme points of its numerical range. We shall investigate the extreme points of a convex joint essential numerical range.

AbstractWe denote the numerical range of the normal operator T by W(T). A characterization is given to the points in W(T) that lie on the boundary. The collection of such boundary points together with the interior of the the convex hull of the spectrum of T will then be the set W(T). Moreover, it is shown that such boundary points reveal a lot of information about the normal operator. For instance, such a boundary point always associates with an invariant (reducing) subspace of the normal operator. It follows that a normal operator acting on a separable Hilbert space cannot have a closed strictly convex set as its numerical range. Similar results are obtained for the Davis-Wielandt shell of a normal operator. One can deduce additional information of the normal operator by studying the boundary of its Davis-Wielandt shell. Further extension of the result to the joint numerical range of commuting operators is discussed.

This note investigates the convexity of the indefinite joint numerical range of a tuple of Hermitian matrices in the setting of Krein spaces. Its main result is a necessary and sufficient condition for convexity of this set. A new notion of “quasi-convexity” is introduced as a refinement of pseudo-convexity.
