Abstract

We study the maximal algebraic degree of principal ortho-compressions of linear operators that constitute spatial matricial numerical ranges of higher order. We demonstrate (amongst other things) that for a (possibly unbounded) operator L on a Hilbert space, every principal m-dimensional ortho-compression of L has algebraic degree less than m if and only if rank(L − λI) ≤ m − 2 for some λ ∈ C
