In this paper, we give conditions forcing nilpotent operators (everywhere bounded or closed) to be null. More precisely, it is mainly shown any closed or everywhere defined bounded nilpotent operator with a positive (self-adjoint) real part is automatically null.
In this article, we give conditions guaranteeing the commutativity of a bounded self-adjoint operator with an unbounded closed symmetric operator.
In this paper, we prove and disprove several generalizations of unbounded versions of the Fuglede-Putnam theorem.

We show that a densely defined closable operator $A$ such that the resolvent set of $A^2$ is not empty is necessarily closed. This result is then extended to the case of a polynomial $p(A)$. We also generalize a recent result by Sebestyén-Tarcsay concerning the converse of a result by J. von Neumann. Other interesting consequences are also given, one of them being a proof that if $T$ is a quasinormal (unbounded) operator such that $T^n$ is normal for some $n\geq2$, then $T$ is normal. By a recent result by Pietrzycki-Stochel, we infer that a closed subnormal operator such that $T^n$ is normal, must be normal. Another remarkable result is the fact that a hyponormal operator $A$, bounded or not, such that $A^p$ and $A^q$ are self-adjoint for some co-prime numbers $p$ and $q$, is self-adjoint. It is also shown that an invertible operator (bounded or not) $A$ for which $A^p$ and $A^q$ are normal for some co-prime numbers $p$ and $q$, is normal. These two results are shown using Bézout's theorem in arithmetic.
Let $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and let $A$ be a closed linear operator (everywhere bounded or unbounded). In this paper, we study (among others) equations of the type $A^*A=A^n$ where $n\geq2$ and see when they yield $A=A^*$ (or a weaker class of operators). In case $n\geq3$, we have in fact a new class of operators which could placed right after orthogonal projections and just before normal operators.
In this paper, we show a new and classic version of the celebrated Fuglede Theorem in an unbounded setting. A related counterexample is equally presented. In the second strand of the paper, we give a pair of a closed and self-adjoint (unbounded) operators which is not intertwined by any (bounded or closed) operator except the zero operator.
In this paper, we give an example of a closed unbounded operator whose square's domain and adjoint's square domain are equal and trivial. Then, we come up with an essentially self-adjoint whose square has a trivial domain.
The primary purpose of the present paper is to investigate when relations of the types $|AB|=|A||B|$, $|A\pm B|\leq |A|+|B|$, $||A|-|B||\leq |A\pm B|$ and $|\overline{\text{Re} A}|\leq |A|$ (among others) hold in an unbounded operator setting. As interesting consequences, we obtain a characterization of (unbounded) self-adjointness as well as a characterization of invertibility for the class of unbounded normal operators.
In this paper, we improve the famous Reid Inequality related to linear operators. Some monotony results for positive operators are also established with a different approach from what is known in the existing literature. Lastly, Reid and Halmos-Reid inequalities are extended to unbounded operators.
This paper is mainly concerned with proving $σ(AB)=σ(BA)$ for two linear and non necessarily bounded operators $A$ and $B$. The main tool is left and right invertibility of bounded and unbounded operators.
In this paper, we establish results about operators similar to their adjoints. This is carried out in the setting of bounded and also unbounded operators on a Hilbert space. Among the results, we prove that an unbounded closed operator similar to its adjoint, via a cramped unitary operator, is self-adjoint. The proof of this result works also as a new proof of the celebrated result by Berberian on the same problem in the bounded case. Other results on similarity of hyponormal unbounded operators and their self-adjointness are also given, generalizing famous results by Sheth and Williams.
