The polar decomposition of $T$ is characterized as $T=U(T^*T)^\\frac12$ and $\\mathcal{R}(U^*)=\\overline{\\mathcal{R}(T^*)}$, where $U$ is a partial isometry, $\\mathcal{R}(U^*)$ and $\\overline{\\mathcal{R}(T^*)}$ denote the range of $U^*$ and the norm closure of the range of $T^*$, respectively. Based on this new characterization of the polar decomposition, an application to the study of centered operators is carried out."},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1807.01598","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
