[Abstract-pdf]

Let $H$ be a separable infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space, and let $ L(H)$ denote the algebra of bounded linear operators on $H$ into itself. Let $ A=(A_{1},A_{2}...,A_{n})$, $B =(B_{1},B_{2}...,B_{n})$ be n-tuples of operators in $L(H)$. We define the elementary operator $\Delta _{A,B}: L(H) \mapsto L(H)$ by $\Delta _{A,B}(X)=\sum_{i=1}^{n}A_{i}XB_{i}-X.$ In this paper we minimize the map $F_{p}(X)= \left\| T -\Delta _{A,B}(X) \right\| _{p}^{p}$, where $T\in \ker\Delta _{A,B}\cap C_{p}$, and we classify its critical points.

Keywords: Orthogonality, derivation, elementary operators.
