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.     

Hereditarily polaroid operators, SVEP and Weyl's theorem

A Banach space operator T∈B(X) is hereditarily polaroid, T∈HP, if every part of T is polaroid. HP operators have SVEP. It is proved that if T∈B(X) has SVEP and R∈B(X) is a Riesz operator which commutes with T, then T+R satisfies generalized a-Browder's theorem. If, in particular, R is a quasi-nilpotent operator Q, then both T+Q and T^∗+Q^∗ satisfy generalized a-Browder's theorem; furthermore, if Q is injective, then also T+Q satisfies Weyl's theorem. If A∈B(X) is an algebraic operator which commutes with the polynomially HP operator T, then T+N is polaroid and has SVEP, f(T+N) satisfies generalized Weyl's theorem for every function f which is analytic on a neighbourhood of σ(T+N), and f^∗(T+N) satisfies generalized a-Weyl's theorem for every function f which is analytic on, and constant on no component of, a neighbourhood of σ(T+N).     

Variations on Weyl's theorem

In this note we study the property (w), a variant of Weyl's theorem introduced by Rako?evi?, by means of the localized single-valued extension property (SVEP). We establish for a bounded linear operator defined on a Banach space several sufficient and necessary conditions for which property (w) holds. We also relate this property with Weyl's theorem and with another variant of it, a-Weyl's theorem. We show that Weyl's theorem, a-Weyl's theorem and property (w) for T (respectively T^*) coincide whenever T^* (respectively T) satisfies SVEP. As a consequence of these results, we obtain that several classes of commonly considered operators have property (w).     

Weyl's theorem for algebraically totally hereditarily normaloid operators

A Banach space operator T∈B(X) is said to be totally hereditarily normaloid, T∈THN, if every part of T is normaloid and every invertible part of T has a normaloid inverse. The operator T is said to be an H(q) operator for some integer q?1, T∈H(q), if the quasi-nilpotent part H₀(T−λ)=(T−λ)^−q(0) for every complex number λ. It is proved that if T is algebraically H(q), or T is algebraically THN and X is separable, then f(T) satisfies Weyl's theorem for every function f analytic in an open neighborhood of σ(T), and T^∗ satisfies a-Weyl's theorem. If also T^∗ has the single valued extension property, then f(T) satisfies a-Weyl's theorem for every analytic function f which is non-constant on the connected components of the open neighborhood of σ(T) on which it is defined.     

Topological uniform descent and Weyl type theorem

The generalized Weyl’s theorem holds for a Banach space operator T if and only if T or T^∗ has the single valued extension property in the complement of the Weyl spectrum (or B-Weyl spectrum) and T has topological uniform descent at all λ which are isolated eigenvalues of T. Also, we show that the generalized Weyl’s theorem holds for analytically paranormal operators.     

Weyl's theorem in several variables

In this note we consider Weyl's theorem and Browder's theorem in several variables. The main result is as follows. Let T be a doubly commuting n-tuple of hyponormal operators acting on a complex Hilbert space. If T has the quasitriangular property, i.e., the dimension of the left cohomology for the Koszul complex Λ(T−λ) is greater than or equal to the dimension of the right cohomology for Λ(T−λ) for all λ∈Cn, then ‘Weyl's theorem’ holds for T, i.e., the complement in the Taylor spectrum of the Taylor Weyl spectrum coincides with the isolated joint eigenvalues of finite multiplicity.     

Polaroid operators,SVEP and perturbed Browder,Weyl theorems

A Banach space operatorT ɛB(X) is polaroid,T ɛP, if the isolated points of the spectrum ofT are poles of the resolvent ofT. LetPS denote the class of operators inP which have have SVEP, the single-valued extension property. It is proved that ifT is polynomiallyPS andA ɛB(X) is an algebraic operator which commutes withT, thenf(T+A) satisfies Weyl’s theorem andf(T ^*+A ^*) satisfiesa-Weyl’s theorem for everyf which is holomorphic on a neighbourhood of σ(T+A).     

On the Equivalence and Generalized of Weyl Theorem Weyl Theorem

We know that an operator T acting on a Banach space satisfying generalized Weyl＇s theorem also satisfies Weyl＇s theorem. Conversely we show that if all isolated eigenvalues of T are poles of its resolvent and if T satisfies Weyl＇s theorem, then it also satisfies generalized Weyl＇s theorem. We give also a sinlilar result for the equivalence of a-Weyl＇s theorem and generalized a-Weyl＇s theorem. Using these results, we study the case of polaroid operators, and in particular paranormal operators.     

On p-quasi-hyponormal operators

A Hilbert space operator A ∈ B(H) is said to be p-quasi-hyponormal for some 0 < p ? 1, A ∈ p − QH, if A^∗(∣A∣^2p − ∣A^∗∣^2p)A ? 0. If H is infinite dimensional, then operators A ∈ p − QH are not supercyclic. Restricting ourselves to those A ∈ p − QH for which A⁻¹(0) ⊆ A^∗-1(0), A ∈ p_∗ − QH, a necessary and sufficient condition for the adjoint of a pure p_∗ − QH operator to be supercyclic is proved. Operators in p_∗ − QH satisfy Bishop’s property (β). Each A ∈ p_∗ − QH has the finite ascent property and the quasi-nilpotent part H₀(A − λI) of A equals (A − λI)^-1(0) for all complex numbers λ; hence f(A) satisfies Weyl’s theorem, and f(A^∗) satisfies a-Weyl’s theorem, for all non-constant functions f which are analytic on a neighborhood of σ(A). It is proved that a Putnam-Fuglede type commutativity theorem holds for operators in p_∗ − QH.     

Eigenvalue problems for second-order nonlinear dynamic equations on time scales

This paper is concerned with the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions of the second-order nonlinear dynamic equation uΔΔ(t)+λa(t)f(u(σ(t)))=0, t∈[0,1], satisfying either the conjugate boundary conditions u(0)=u(σ(1))=0 or the right focal boundary conditions u(0)=uΔ(σ(1))=0, where a and f are positive. We show that there exists a λ^∗>0 such that the above boundary value problem has at least two, one and no positive solutions for 0<λ<λ^∗, λ=λ^∗ and λ>λ^∗, respectively. Furthermore, by using the semiorder method on cones of the Banach space, we establish an existence and uniqueness criterion for positive solution of the problem. In particular, such a positive solution uλ(t) of the problem depends continuously on the parameter λ, i.e., uλ(t) is nondecreasing in λ, limλ→⁰⁺‖uλ‖=0 and limλ→+∞‖uλ‖=+∞.     

Existence and regularity of extremal solutions for a mean-curvature equation

We study a class of mean curvature equations −Mu=H+λup where M denotes the mean curvature operator and for p?1. We show that there exists an extremal parameter λ^∗ such that this equation admits a minimal weak solutions for all λ∈[0,λ^∗], while no weak solutions exists for λ>λ^∗ (weak solutions will be defined as critical points of a suitable functional). In the radially symmetric case, we then show that minimal weak solutions are classical solutions for all λ∈[0,λ^∗] and that another branch of classical solutions exists in a neighborhood (λ_∗−η,λ^∗) of λ^∗.     

Property (aw) and Weyl’s Theorem

In this note we study the property (aw), a variant of Weyl’s theorem introduced by Berkani and Zariouh, by means of the localized single valued extension property (SVEP). We establish for a bounded linear operator defined on a Banach space several sufficient and necessary conditions for which property (aw) holds. We also relate this property with Weyl’s theorem, a-Weyl’s theorem and property (w). Finally, we show that if T is a-polaroid and either T or T* has SVEP then f(T) satisfies property (aw) for each ${f \in H_1(\sigma(T))}$ .     

Spectral concentration near embedded eigenvalues

Techniques of Rayleigh-Schrödinger perturbation theory usually employed for perturbation of isolated eigenvalues are used to obtain theorems on spectral concentration near eigenvalues which are not assumed to be isolated. If {H_ϰ} is a family of self adjoint operators convergent in the strong resolvent sense to a self adjoint operator H₀ and λ₀ is an eigenvalue of finite multiplicity of H₀, then the spectrum of {H_κ} is concentrated near λ₀. Moreover, conditions under which concentration still occurs near λ₀ without the assumption of finite multiplicity are obtained in the semibounded case.     

Algebraic extension of *-A operator

In this paper, we study various properties of algebraic extension of *-A operator. Specifically, we show that every algebraic extension of *-A operator has SVEP and is isoloid. And if T is an algebraic extension of *-A operator, then Weyl's theorem holds for f(T), where f is an analytic functions on some neighborhood of σ(T) and not constant on each of the components of its domain.     

Property (R) under Perturbations

Property (R) holds for a bounded linear operator ${T \in L(X)}$ , defined on a complex infinite dimensional Banach space X, if the isolated points of the spectrum of T which are eigenvalues of finite multiplicity are exactly those points λ of the approximate point spectrum for which λI ? T is upper semi-Browder. In this paper we consider the permanence of this property under quasi nilpotent, Riesz, or algebraic perturbations commuting with T.     

Tensor products, multiplications and Weyl’s theorem

Tensor productsZ=T ₁⊗T ₂ and multiplicationsZ=L _{T 1} R _{T 2} do not inherit Weyl’s theorem from Weyl’s theorem forT ₁ andT ₂. Also, Weyl’s theorem does not transfer fromZ toZ*. We prove that ifT _i,i=1, 2, has SVEP (=the single-valued extension property) at points in the complement of the Weyl spectrumσ _w(T_i) ofT _i, and if the operatorsT _i are Kato type at the isolated points ofσ(T_i), thenZ andZ* satisfy Weyl’s theorem.     

Browder-Weyl theorems, tensor products and multiplications

A Banach space operator T∈B(X) satisfies Browder's theorem if the complement of the Weyl spectrum σw(T) of T in σ(T) equals the set of Riesz points of T; T is polaroid if the isolated points of σ(T) are poles (no restriction on rank) of the resolvent of T. Let Φ(T) denote the set of Fredholm points of T. Browder's theorem transfers from A,B∈B(X) to S=LARB (resp., S=A⊗B) if and only if A and B^∗ (resp., A and B) have SVEP at points μ∈Φ(A) and ν∈Φ(B) for which λ=μν∉σw(S). If A and B are finitely polaroid, then the polaroid property transfers from A∈B(X) and B∈B(Y) to LARB; again, restricting ourselves to the completion of X⊗Y in the projective topology, if A and B are finitely polaroid, then the polaroid property transfers from A∈B(X) and B∈B(Y) to A⊗B.     

Lieb-Thirring type inequalities and Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities for systems

This paper is devoted to inequalities of Lieb-Thirring type. Let V be a nonnegative potential such that the corresponding Schrödinger operator has an unbounded sequence of eigenvalues (λi(V))_i∈N^∗. We prove that there exists a positive constant C(γ), such that, if γ>d/2, then

New characterizations of EP, generalized normal and generalized Hermitian elements in rings

We present a number of new characterizations of EP elements in rings with involution in purely algebraic terms. Then, we study equivalent conditions for an element a in a ring with involution to satisfy aⁿa^∗ = a^∗aⁿ or aⁿ = (a^∗)ⁿ for arbitrary n ∈ N. For n = 1, we present some new characterizations of normal and Hermitian elements in rings with involution.     

Positive solutions of the p-Laplacian involving a superlinear nonlinearity with zeros

Using a combination of several methods, such as variational methods, the sub and supersolutions method, comparison principles and a priori estimates, we study existence, multiplicity, and the behavior with respect to λ of positive solutions of p-Laplace equations of the form −Δpu=λh(x,u), where the nonlinear term has p-superlinear growth at infinity, is nonnegative, and satisfies h(x,a(x))=0 for a suitable positive function a. In order to manage the asymptotic behavior of the solutions we extend a result due to Redheffer and we establish a new Liouville-type theorem for the p-Laplacian operator, where the nonlinearity involved is superlinear, nonnegative, and has positive zeros.
