Convergence of functions of self-adjoint operators and applications

The main result (roughly) is that if Hi converges weakly to H and if also f (Hi) converges weakly to f(H), for a single strictly convex continuous function f, then (Hi) must converge strongly to H. One application is that if f(pr(H)) = pr(f(H)), where pr denotes compression to a closed subspace M, t...

Sumario:The main result (roughly) is that if Hi converges weakly to H and if also f (Hi) converges weakly to f(H), for a single strictly convex continuous function f, then (Hi) must converge strongly to H. One application is that if f(pr(H)) = pr(f(H)), where pr denotes compression to a closed subspace M, then M must be invariant for H. A consequence of this is the verification of a conjecture of Arveson, that Theorem 9.4 of [Arv] remains true in the infinite dimensional case. And there are two applications to operator algebras. If h and f(h) are both quasimultipliers, then h must be a multiplier. Also (still roughly stated), if h and f(h) are both in pAsap, for a closed projection p, then h must be strongly q-continuous on p.
