Abstract

In this introductory chapter we present some fundamental facts about the numerical range and the numerical radius of bounded linear operators in Hilbert spaces that are used throughout the book. Some famous inequalities due to Berger, Holbrook, Fong and Holbrook and Bouldin are given. More recent results obtained by Kittaneh, El-Haddad and Kittanek and Yamazaki are provided as well.
