Numerical radius of normal operators #

For a star-normal operator, the spectral radius equals the operator norm. Since the spectrum lies in the closed numerical-range disk, the numerical radius therefore equals the operator norm.

The numerical radius of a normal operator equals its operator norm.

A selfadjoint operator has numerical radius equal to its norm.

A unitary operator on a nontrivial Hilbert space has numerical radius one.
