1.1. Over the past 15 years there has grown up quite an extensive theory of operator norms related to the numerical radius

of a Hilbert space operator T. Among the many interesting developments, we may mention:

(a) C. Berger's proof of the “power inequality”

2

(b) R. Bouldin's result that

for any isometry V commuting with T;

(c) the unification by B. Sz.-Nagy and C. Foias, in their theory of ρ-dilations, of the Berger dilation for T with w(T) ≤ 1 and the earlier theory of strong unitary dilations (Nagy-dilations) for norm contractions;

(d) the result by T. Ando and K. Nishio that the operator radii wρ(T) corresponding to the ρ-dilations of (c) are log-convex functions of ρ.
