Dragomir, [email protected] Received 5 September 2008; Accepted 3 December 2008 Recommended by Andros ´ Ront´a The main aim of the present paper is to establish various sharp upper bounds for the Euclidean operator radius of an n-tuple of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. The tools used are provided by several generalizations of Bessel inequality due to Boas-Bellman, Bombieri, and the author. Natural applications for the norm and the numerical radius of bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces are also given. Copyright q 2008 S. S. Dragomir.

1. Introduction Following Popescu’s work 1, we present here some basic properties of the Euclidean operator radius of an n-tuple of operators T1 , . . . , Tn  that are defined on a Hilbert space H; ·, ·. This radius is defined by

We can also consider the following norm and spectral radius on BHn : BH × · · · × BH, by setting 1
