Numerical ranges of C0(N)C_0(N) contractions

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

A conjecture of Halmos proved by Choi and Li states that the closure of the numerical range of a contraction on a Hilbert space is the intersection of the closure of the numerical ranges of all its unitary dilations. We show that for C0(N)C_0(N) contractions one can restrict the intersection to a smaller family of dilations. This generalizes a finite dimensional result of Gau and Wu.
