On the unitary invariance of the numerical radius

Ivan Filippenko and Marvin David Marcus

Vol. 75 (1978), No. 2, 383–395
Abstract

A characterization is obtained of scalar multiples of unitary matrices in terms of the unitary invariance of a generalized numerical radius. The method of proof involves some rather delicate combinatorial considerations.
