On the Isolated Points of the Spectrum of Paranormal Operators

For paranormal operator T on a separable complex Hilbert space we show that (1) Weyl’s theorem holds for T, i.e., σ(T) \ w(T) = π₀₀(T) and (2) every Riesz idempotent E with respect to a non-zero isolated point λ of σ(T) is self-adjoint (i.e., it is an orthogonal projection) and satisfies that ranE = ker(T − λ) = ker(T − λ)^*.     

Common properties of operatorsRS andSR andp-hyponormal operators

LetR andS be bounded linear operators on a Bananch space. We discuss the spectral and subdecomposable properties and properties concerning invariant subspaces common toRS andSR. We prove that, by these properties,p-hyponormal and log-hyponormal operators and their generalized Aluthge transformations are all subdecomposable operators;T andT(r, 1–r)(0<r<1) have same spectral structure and equal spectral parts ifT denotesp-hyponormal or dominant operator; for everyT L(H), 0<r<1,T has nontrivial (hyper-)invariant subspace ifT(r, 1–r) does.This research was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.     

A lattice approach to narrow operators

It is known that if a rearrangement invariant function space E on [0,1] has an unconditional basis then each linear continuous operator on E is a sum of two narrow operators. On the other hand, the sum of two narrow operators in L₁ is narrow. To find a general approach to these results, we extend the notion of a narrow operator to the case when the domain space is a vector lattice. Our main result asserts that the set N_r(E, F) of all narrow regular operators is a band in the vector lattice L_r(E, F) of all regular operators from a non-atomic order continuous Banach lattice E to an order continuous Banach lattice F. The band generated by the disjointness preserving operators is the orthogonal complement to N_r(E, F) in L_r(E, F). As a consequence we obtain the following generalization of the Kalton-Rosenthal theorem: every regular operator T : E → F from a non-atomic Banach lattice E to an order continuous Banach lattice F has a unique representation as T = T_D + T_N where T_D is a sum of an order absolutely summable family of disjointness preserving operators and T_N is narrow.

Some Properties of Essential Spectra of a Positive Operator

Let E be a Banach lattice, T be a bounded operator on E. The Weyl essential spectrum σ_ew(T) of the operator T is a set , where is a set of all compact operators on E. In particular for a positive operator T next subsets of the spectrum

Norms of Moore-Penrose Inverses of Fredholm Toeplitz Operators

In this paper we estimate the norm of the Moore-Penrose inverse T(a)⁺ of a Fredholm Toeplitz operator T(a) with a matrix-valued symbol a∈L_{N × N}^∞ defined on the complex unit circle. In particular, we show that in the ”generic case” the strict inequality ||T(a)⁺|| > ||a⁻¹||_∞ holds. Moreover, we discuss the asymptotic behavior of ||T(t^ra)⁺|| for . The results are illustrated by numerical experiments.     

Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operators with time periodic coefficients

We study the realization of the differential operator in the space of continuous time periodic functions, and in L ² with respect to its (unique) invariant measure. Here L(t) is an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in , such that L(t + T) = L(t) for each .      

Some Geometric Aspects of Operators Acting from L 1

We study some properties of the space (L₁,X) of all continuous linear operators acting from L₁ to a Banach space X. It is proved that every operator T ∈ (L₁, X) ``almost' attains its norm at the entire positive cone of functions supported at some suitable measurable subset , μ(A) > 0. Using this fact and a new elementary technique we prove that every operator T∈ (L₁) = (L₁, L₁) is uniquely represented in the form T= R+S, R, S∈ (L₁) , where R is representable and S possess a special property (*). Moreover, this representation generates a decomposition of the space (L₁) into complemented subspaces by means of contractive projections (the fact that the subspace of all representable operators is complemented in (L₁) was proved before by Z. Liu).     

Weyl Spectrum of Class A(n) and n-Paranormal Operators

Let n be a positive integer, an operator T belongs to class A(n) if , which is a generalization of class A and a subclass of n-paranormal operators, i.e., for unit vector x. It is showed that if T is a class A(n) or n-paranormal operator, then the spectral mapping theorem on Weyl spectrum of T holds. If T belongs to class A(n), then the nonzero points of its point spectrum and joint point spectrum are identical, the nonzero points of its approximate point spectrum and joint approximate point spectrum are identical.

Riesz Idempotent and Algebraically M-hyponormal Operators

Let T be an M-hyponormal operator acting on infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space and let be the Riesz idempotent for λ₀, where D is a closed disk of center λ₀ which contains no other points of σ (T). In this note we show that E is self-adjoint and As an application, if T is an algebraically M-hyponormal operator then we prove : (i) Weyl’s theorem holds for f(T) for every (ii) a-Browder’s theorem holds for f(S) for every and f ∈ H(σ(S)); (iii) the the spectral mapping theorem holds for the Weyl spectrum of T and for the essential approximate point spectrum of T.     

On the approximation of positive operators and the behaviour of the spectra of the approximants

LetT be a positive linear operator on the Banach latticeE and let (S _n ) be a sequence of bounded linear operators onE which converge strongly toT. Our main results are concerned with the question under which additional assumptions onS _n andT the peripheral spectra (S _n ) ofS _n converge to the peripheral spectrum (T) ofT. We are able to treat even the more general case of discretely convergent sequences of operators.     

An elementary operator with log-hyponormal, p-hyponormal entries

A Hilbert space operator A∈B(H) is p-hyponormal, A∈(p-H), if |A^∗|^2p?|A|^2p; an invertible operator A∈B(H) is log-hyponormal, A∈(?-H), if log(TT^∗)?log(T^∗T). Let d_AB=δ_AB or ?_AB, where δ_AB∈B(B(H)) is the generalised derivation δ_AB(X)=AX-XB and ?_AB∈B(B(H)) is the elementary operator ?_AB(X)=AXB-X. It is proved that if A,B^∗∈(?-H)∪(p-H), then, for all complex λ, , the ascent of (d_AB-λ)?1, and d_AB satisfies the range-kernel orthogonality inequality ‖X‖?‖X-(d_AB-λ)Y‖ for all X∈(d_AB-λ)^-1(0) and Y∈B(H). Furthermore, isolated points of σ(d_AB) are simple poles of the resolvent of d_AB. A version of the elementary operator E(X)=A₁XA₂-B₁XB₂ and perturbations of d_AB by quasi-nilpotent operators are considered, and Weyl’s theorem is proved for d_AB.     

Peripheral spectrum of positive quasi-compact operators onC 0(X)

LetX be a locally compact space, andT, a quasi-compact positive operator onC ₀(X), with positive spectral radius,r. Then the peripheral spectrum ofT is a finite set of poles containingr, and the residue of the resolvent ofT at each peripheral pole is of finite rank. Using the concept of closed absorbing set, we develop an iterative process that gives the order,p, ofr, some special bases of the algebraic eigenspaces ker(T-r) ^p and ker(T ^*-r) ^p , and finally the dimension of the algebraic eigenspace associated to each peripheral pole.     

Polaroid operators satisfying Weyl’s theorem

A Banach space operator T is polaroid and satisfies Weyl’s theorem if and only if T is Kato type at points λ ∈ iso σ(T) and has SVEP at points λ not in the Weyl spectrum of T. For such operators T, f(T) satisfies Weyl’s theorem for every non-constant function f analytic on a neighborhood of σ(T) if and only if f(T^∗) satisfies Weyl’s theorem.     

On the Range of Elementary Operators

Let B(H) denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a separable infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space H into itself. Let A = (A₁,A₂,.., A_n) and B = (B₁, B₂,.., B_n) be n-tuples in B(H), we define the elementary operator by In this paper we initiate the study of some properties of the range of such operators.     

Weyl’s Theorems for Some Classes of Operators

We introduce the class of operators on Banach spaces having property (H) and study Weyl’s theorems, and related results for operators which satisfy this property. We show that a- Weyl’s theorem holds for every decomposable operator having property (H). We also show that a-Weyl’s theorem holds for every multiplier T of a commutative semi-simple regular Tauberian Banach algebra. In particular every convolution operator T_μ of a group algebra L¹(G), G a locally compact abelian group, satisfies a-Weyl’s theorem. Similar results are given for multipliers of other important commutative Banach algebras.     

Maps preserving peripheral spectrum of Jordan semi-triple products of operators

Let A and B be (not necessarily unital or closed) standard operator algebras on complex Banach spaces X and Y, respectively. For a bounded linear operator A on X, the peripheral spectrum σ_π(A) of A is the set σ_π(A)={z∈σ(A):|z|=max_ω∈σ(A)|ω|}, where σ(A) denotes the spectrum of A. Assume that Φ:A→B is a map the range of which contains all operators of rank at most two. It is shown that the map Φ satisfies the condition that σ_π(BAB)=σ_π(Φ(B)Φ(A)Φ(B)) for all A,B∈A if and only if there exists a scalar λ∈C with λ³=1 and either there exists an invertible operator T∈B(X,Y) such that Φ(A)=λTAT^-1 for every A∈A; or there exists an invertible operator T∈B(X^∗,Y) such that Φ(A)=λTA^∗T^-1 for every A∈A. If X=H and Y=K are complex Hilbert spaces, the maps preserving the peripheral spectrum of the Jordan skew semi-triple product BA^∗B are also characterized. Such maps are of the form A?UAU^∗ or A?UA^tU^∗, where U∈B(H,K) is a unitary operator, A^t denotes the transpose of A in an arbitrary but fixed orthonormal basis of H.

On the Decomposition of the Riesz Operator and the Expansion of the Riesz Semigroup

For a Riesz operator T on a reflexive Banach space X with nonzero eigenvalues denote by E(λ_i; T) the eigen-projection corresponding to an eigenvalue λ_i. In this paper we will show that if the operator sequence is uniformly bounded, then the Riesz operator T can be decomposed into the sum of two operators T_p and T_r: T = T_p + T_r, where T_p is the weak limit of T_n and T_r is quasi-nilpotent. The result is used to obtain an expansion of a Riesz semigroup T(t) for t ≥ τ. As an application, we consider the solution of transport equation on a bounded convex body.

A Note on the Spectrum of Invertible p-hyponormal Operators

A bounded linear operator T is clalled p-hyponormal if (T*T)^p ≥ (TT)^p, 0 < p < 1. It is known that for semi-hyponormal operators (p = 1/2), the spectrum of the operator is equal to the union of the spectra of the general polar symbols of the operator. In this paper we prove a somewhat weaker result for invertible p-hyponormal operators for 0 < p < 1/2.
