Scalar translations of the numerical radius #

On a nontrivial Hilbert space, scalar operators have their expected numerical radius. Consequently scalar translation changes numerical radius by at most the modulus of the scalar, and centered numerical radii are Lipschitz in the center.

A scalar operator has numerical radius equal to the scalar modulus.

Adding a scalar operator changes numerical radius by at most the scalar modulus.

Subtracting a scalar operator changes numerical radius by at most the scalar modulus.

The centered numerical radius differs from the modulus of its center by at most w(A).

In particular, the centered numerical radius grows at least linearly in the modulus of the center.

Centering at two scalars changes numerical radius by at most the distance between the centers.

The numerical radius of A - cI is 1-Lipschitz as a function of the center c.

The centered numerical radius depends continuously on the center.

The numerical radius of the scalar translate A-cI is convex as a function of the center c.

Every sublevel set of the centered numerical radius is convex.

Every sublevel set of the centered numerical radius is compact.

The centered numerical radius tends to infinity as the center leaves compact subsets of the complex plane.

There is a center minimizing the numerical radius of the scalar translate A-cI.
