Abstract
Given two complex Hilbert spaces $H$ and $K$, let $S(B(H))$ and $S(B(K))$ denote the unit spheres of the C$^*$-algebras$B(H)$ and $B(K)$ of all bounded linear operators on $H$ and $K$, respectively. We prove that every surjective isometry $f: S(B(K)) \to S(B(H))$ admits an extension to a surjective complex linear or conjugate linear isometry $T: B(K)\to B(H)$. This provides a positive answer to Tingley’s problem in the setting of $B(H)$ spaces.
1. Introduction
Let $X$ and $Y$ be normed spaces, whose unit spheres are denoted by $S(X)$ and $S(Y)$, respectively. Suppose $T: X\to Y$ is a surjective real linear isometry. The restriction $T|_{S(X)} : S(X) \to S(Y)$ defines a surjective isometry. The so-called Tingley’s problem, named after the contribution of D. Tingley Reference 36, asks if every surjective isometry $f:S(X)\to S(Y)$ arises in this way, or equivalently, if every surjective isometry $f : S(X) \to S(Y )$ admits an extension to a surjective real linear isometry $T: X\to Y$. Tingley’s achievements show that, for finite dimensional normed spaces $X$ and $Y$, every surjective isometry $f: S(X)\to S(Y)$ satisfies $f(-x) = -f(x)$ for every $x\in S(X)$ (see Reference 36, THEOREM on page 377).
A solution to Tingley’s problem has been pursued by many researchers during the last thirty years. Positive answers to Tingley’s problem have been established for $\ell ^p (\Gamma )$ spaces with $1\leq p\leq \infty$ (see Reference 7Reference 8Reference 10 and Reference 11), $L^{p}(\Omega , \Sigma , \mu )$ spaces, where $(\Omega , \Sigma , \mu )$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure space and $1\leq p\leq \infty$ (compare Reference 29Reference 30 and Reference 31), and $C_0(L)$ spaces (see Reference 37). Tingley’s problem also admits a positive solution in the case of finite dimensional polyhedral Banach spaces (see Reference 21). The reader is referred to the surveys Reference 12 and Reference 38 for additional details.
In the non-commutative setting, Tingley’s problem has been solved for surjective isometries between the unit spheres of two finite dimensional C$^*$-algebras (see Reference 34) and for surjective isometries between the unit spheres of two finite von Neumann algebras Reference 35. A more recent contribution solves Tingley’s problem for surjective isometries between the unit spheres of spaces, $K(H),$ of compact linear operators on a complex Hilbert space $H$, or more generally, for surjective isometries between the unit spheres of two compact C$^*$-algebrasReference 25, Theorem 3.14. The novelties in Reference 25 are based on the application of techniques of JB$^*$-triples, and in the above-referenced paper Tingley’s problem is also solved for surjective isometries between the unit spheres of two weakly compact JB$^*$-triples of rank greater than or equal to 5. In Reference 17 we establish a complete solution to Tingley’s problem for arbitrary weakly compact JB$^*$-triples. A solution to Tingley’s problem for spaces of trace class operators is presented in Reference 18.
Tingley’s problem for surjective isometries between the unit spheres of two $B(H)$ spaces seems to be the last frontier in the studies on Tingley’s problem. This paper is devoted to providing a complete solution in this case.
The results in Reference 17Reference 25Reference 34 are based, among other techniques, on those theorems describing the (maximal) norm closed proper faces of the closed unit ball of a C$^*$-algebra (see Reference 2) or of a JB$^*$-triple (see Reference 13). Throughout the paper, the closed unit ball of a normed space $X$ will be denoted by $\mathcal{B}_X$. It is shown in Reference 17Reference 25Reference 34 that, for a compact C$^*$-algebra$A$ (respectively, a weakly compact JB$^*$-triple$E$), the norm closed faces of $\mathcal{B}_{A}$ are determined by finite rank partial isometries in $A$ (respectively, by finite rank tripotents in $E$). However, for a general C$^*$-algebra$A$ the maximal proper faces of $\mathcal{B}_{A}$ are determined by minimal partial isometries in $A^{**}$ (see Section 2 for more details). This is a serious obstacle which makes invalid the arguments in Reference 17Reference 25 in the case of $B(H)$.
To avoid the difficulties mentioned in the previous paragraph, our first geometric result shows that a surjective isometry $f$ from the unit sphere of a C$^*$-algebra$A$ onto the unit sphere of $B(H)$ maps minimal partial isometries in $A$ into minimal partial isometries in $B(H)$ (see Theorem 2.5). Apart from the just commented geometric tools, our arguments are based on techniques of functional analysis and linear algebra. In our main result we prove that, given two complex Hilbert spaces $H$ and $K$, every surjective isometry $f: S(B(K)) \to S(B(H))$ admits an extension to a surjective complex linear or conjugate linear isometry $T: B(K) \to B(H)$ (see Theorem 3.2). In the final result we show that the same conclusion remains true when $B(H)$ spaces are replaced by $\ell _{\infty }$-sums of $B(H)$ spaces (see Theorem 3.4). The next natural question beyond these conclusions is whether Tingley’s problem admits or not a positive answer for Cartan factors and atomic JBW$^*$-triples.
It should be remarked here that the solution to Tingley’s problem for surjective isometries between the unit spheres of $K(H)$-spaces in Reference 17Reference 25 and the solution presented in this note for surjective isometries between the unit spheres of $B(H)$-spaces are completely independent results.
2. Surjective isometries between the unit spheres of two C$^*$-algebras
In this section we carry out a study of the geometric properties of those surjective isometries between the unit spheres of two C$^*$-algebras with special interest on C$^*$-algebras of the form $B(H)$. We begin by gathering some technical results and concepts needed for later purposes.
An interesting generalization of the Mazur-Ulam theorem was established by P. Mankiewicz in Reference 22, who proved that, given two convex bodies $V\subset X$ and $W\subset Y$, every surjective isometry $g$ from $V$ onto $W$ can be uniquely extended to an affine isometry from $X$ onto $Y$. Consequently, every surjective isometry between the closed unit balls of two Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ extends uniquely to a real linear isometric isomorphism from $X$ into $Y$.
Let $a$ and $b$ be two elements in a C$^*$-algebra$A$. We recall that $a$ and $b$ are orthogonal($a\perp b$ for short) if $ab^* = b^* a =0$. Symmetric elements in $A$ are orthogonal if and only if their product is zero.
For each element $a$ in a C$^*$-algebra$A$, the symbol $|a|$ will denote the element $(a^* a)^{\frac{1}{2}}\in A$. Throughout this note, for each $x\in A$,$\sigma (x)$ will denote the spectrum of the element $x$. We observe that $\sigma (|a|)\cup \{0\} = \sigma (|a^*|)\cup \{0\}$, for every $a\in A$. Let $a = v |a|$ be the polar decomposition of $a$ in $A^{**}$, where $v$ is a partial isometry in $A^{**}$, which, in general, does not belong to $A$ (compare Reference 27). It is further known that $v^*v$ is the range projection of $|a|$($r(|a|)$ for short), and for each $h\in C(\sigma (|a|)),$ with $h(0)=0$ the element $v h(|a|)\in A$ (see Reference 1, Lemma 2.1).
Proposition 2.1 points out the importance of an appropriate description of the maximal proper faces of the closed unit ball $\mathcal{B}_A$ of a C$^*$-algebra$A$. A complete study was established by C. A. Akemann and G. K. Pedersen in Reference 2. When $A$ is a von Neumann algebra, weak$^*$-closed faces in $\mathcal{B}_A$ were originally determined by C. M. Edwards and G. T. Rüttimann in Reference 14, who proved that general weak$^*$-closed faces in $\mathcal{B}_A$ have the form
for some partial isometry $v$ in $A$. Actually, the mapping $v\mapsto F_v$ is an anti-order isomorphism from the complete lattice of partial isometries in $A$ onto the complete lattice of weak$^*$-closed faces of $\mathcal{B}_A$, where the partial order in the set of partial isometries of $A$ is given by $v\leq u$ if and only if $u = v + (1-vv^*) u (1-v^*v)$ (see Reference 14, Theorem 4.6).
However, partial isometries in a general C$^*$-algebra$A$ are not enough to determine all the norm-closed faces in $\mathcal{B}_A$, even more after recalling the existence of C$^*$-algebras containing no partial isometries. In the general case, certain partial isometries in the second dual, $A^{**}$, are required to determine the facial structure of $\mathcal{B}_A$. We recall that a projection $p$ in $A^{**}$ is called open if $A\cap (p A^{**} p)$ is weak$^*$-dense in $p A^{**} p$ (see Reference 24, §3.11 and Reference 28, §III.6). A projection $p \in A^{**}$ is said to be closed if $1-p$ is open. A closed projection $p\in A^{**}$ is compact if $p\leq x$ for some positive norm-one element $x \in A$. A partial isometry $v\in A^{**}$belongs locally to $A$ if $v^*v$ is a compact projection and there exists a norm-one element $x$ in $A$ satisfying $v = x v^*v$ (compare Reference 2, Remark 4.7).
It is shown in Reference 2, Lemma 4.8 and Remark 4.11 that “the partial isometries that belong locally to $A$ are obtained by taking an element $x$ in $A$ with norm 1 and polar decomposition $x = u |x|$ (in $A^{**}$), and then letting $v = ue$ for some compact projection $e$ contained in the spectral projection $\chi _{_{\{1\}}}(|x|)$ of $|x|$ corresponding to the eigenvalue 1”.
It should be noted that a partial isometry $v$ in $A^{**}$ belongs locally to $A$ if and only if it is compact in the sense introduced by C. M. Edwards and G. T. Rüttimann in Reference 15, Theorem 5.1.
The facial structure of the unit ball of a C$^*$-algebra is completely described by the following result due to C. A. Akemann and G. K. Pedersen.
A non-zero partial isometry $e$ in a C$^*$-algebra$A$ is called minimal if $ee^*$ (equivalently, $e^* e$) is a minimal projection in $A$, that is, $ee^* A e e^* =\mathbb{C} ee^*.$ By Kadison’s transitivity theorem minimal partial isometries in $A^{**}$ belong locally to $A$, and hence every maximal proper face of the unit ball of a C$^*$-algebra$A$ is of the form
Our main goal in this section is to show that a surjective isometry $f : S(A)\to S(B)$ between the unit spheres of two C$^*$-algebras maps minimal partial isometries into minimal partial isometries. In a first step we shall show that, for each minimal partial isometry $e$ in $A$, 1 is isolated in the spectrum of $|f(e)|$.
In the problem of dealing with maximal faces of the unit ball of a C$^*$-algebra$A$ we need to handle minimal partial isometries in $A^{**}$ (compare Theorem 2.2). We now present a technical result, which will be used later to facilitate the arguments depending on the facial structure of $\mathcal{B}_A$.
We are now in position to show that a surjective isometry between the unit spheres of two C$^*$-algebras maps minimal partial isometries to minimal partial isometries.
The next technical lemma is obtained with basic techniques of linear algebra.
Next, we shall establish several consequences of the above theorem.
3. Synthesis of a surjective real linear isometry
In order to produce a real linear extension of our surjective isometry between $B(H)$ spaces, the next identity principle, which generalizes Reference 25, Proposition 3.9, will play a central role.
We have developed enough tools to prove our main result.
We are now in position to extend Theorem 3.2 for $\ell _{\infty }$-sums of $B(H)$ spaces. In the proof presented here we revise the arguments in the proof of Reference 25, Theorem 3.12 and we insert the appropriate modifications.
Since Proposition 2.1, Theorems 2.2 and 2.3, and Lemma 2.4 are valid for general Banach spaces and general C$^*$-algebras, respectively, the proof of Theorem 2.5 can be literally applied to prove the following result.
It should be noted here that statements (a) and (h) in Theorem 2.7 need not be true when $B(K)$ and $B(H)$ are replaced with von Neumann algebras of the form $\bigoplus _j^{\ell _{\infty }} B(K_j)$ and $\bigoplus _i^{\ell _{\infty }} B(H_i)$, respectively. However, this obstacle will be avoided in the proof of our last result with an appropriate version of Theorem 2.7.
