摘要

Let H be a complex Hilbert space and let B(H) denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators on H. For A. B is an element of B(H), the Jordan elementary operator U-A,U-B is defined by U-A,U-B(X) = AXB + BXA, for all X is an element of B(H). In this short note, we discuss the norm of U-A,U-B. We show that if dim H = 2 and parallel to U-A,U- (B)parallel to = parallel to A parallel to parallel to B parallel to, then either AB* or B*A is 0. We give some examples of Jordan elementary operators parallel to U-A,U- (B)parallel to such that parallel to U-A,U- (B)parallel to = parallel to A parallel to parallel to B parallel to but AB* not equal 0 and B*A not equal 0, which answer negatively a question posed by M. Boumazgour in [M. Boumazgour, Norm inequalities for sums of two basic elementary operators, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 342 (2008) 386-393)].
