Resolvent of the Toeplitz operator may increase arbitrarily fast

It is proved that for every sequence of points _n from the unit circle, _n1, and for an arbitrary sequence of positive numbers A_n, A_n, there exists a continuous real function u, such that for the Toeplitz operator T (acting in the Hardy space H²) with the symbol =e ^iu we have the estimates (T–_nI)^–1>A_n, n.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.
