Birkhoff-James Orthogonality and Geometry of Operator Spaces

This book provides an insight into the geometric aspects of the spaces of operators studied by using the notion of Birkhoff-James orthogonality. It studies the norm attainment set of an operator and its properties, the notion of which plays a very important role in the characterization of B-J orthogonality of operators. The structure of the norm attainment set is studied for Hilbert space operators and is yet to be understood completely for operators between Banach spaces. The book explores ...
