Soit $T$ un opérateur compact dans une algèbre de Von Neumann. On montre que le sous-espace sup ker$(1-T{)}^n$ est relativement fini.

The spectral problem (s²I - ϕ(V)*ϕ(V))f = 0 for an arbitrary complex polynomial ϕ of the classical Volterra operator V in L₂(0,1) is considered. An equivalent boundary value problem for a differential equation of order 2n, n = deg(ϕ), is constructed. In the case ϕ(z) = 1 + az the singular numbers are explicitly described in terms of roots of a transcendental equation, their localization and asymptotic behavior is investigated, and an explicit formula for the ||I + aV||₂ is given. For all a ≠ 0 this...

Suppose that μ is a Radon measure on ${ℝ}^d$, which may be non-doubling. The only condition assumed on μ is a growth condition, namely, there is a constant C₀ > 0 such that for all x ∈ supp(μ) and r > 0, μ(B(x,r)) ≤ C₀rⁿ, where 0 < n ≤ d. The authors provide a theory of Triebel-Lizorkin spaces ${Ḟ}_{pq}^s\left(\mu \right)$ for 1 < p < ∞, 1 ≤ q ≤ ∞ and |s| < θ, where θ > 0 is a real number which depends on the non-doubling measure μ, C₀, n and d. The method does not use the vector-valued maximal function inequality...

In [2] and [3] upper and lower estimates and asymptotic results were obtained for the approximation numbers of the operator $T:L^p\left({ℝ}^{+}\right)\to L^p\left({ℝ}^{+}\right)$ defined by $\left(Tf\right)\left(x\right)≔v\left(x\right){ʃ}_0^{\infty }u\left(t\right)f\left(t\right)dt$ when 1 < p < ∞. Analogous results are given in this paper for the cases p = 1,∞ not included in [2] and [3].

We consider the Volterra integral operator $T:L^p\left({ℝ}^{+}\right)\to L^p\left({ℝ}^{+}\right)$ defined by $\left(Tf\right)\left(x\right)=v\left(x\right){ʃ}_0^{x}u\left(t\right)f\left(t\right)dt$. Under suitable conditions on u and v, upper and lower estimates for the approximation numbers $a_n\left(T\right)$ of T are established when 1 < p < ∞. When p = 2 these yield $li{m}_{n\to \infty }n{a}_n\left(T\right)={\pi }^{-1}{ʃ}_0^{\infty }\left|u\left(t\right)v\left(t\right)\right|dt$. We also provide upper and lower estimates for the ${\ell }^{\alpha }$ and weak ${\ell }^{\alpha }$ norms of (an(T)) when 1 < α < ∞.

There exists an absolute constant $c_0$ such that for any n-dimensional Banach space E there exists a k-dimensional subspace F ⊂ E with k≤ n/2 such that $in{f}_{ellipsoid\epsilon \subset B_E}{(vol\left(B_E\right)/vol\left(\epsilon \right))}^{1/n}\le c_{0}in{f}_{zonoidZ\subset B_F}{(vol\left(B_F\right)/vol\left(Z\right))}^{1/k}$ . The concept of volume ratio with respect to ${\ell }_p$-spaces is used to prove the following distance estimate for $2\le q\le p<\infty$: $su{p}_{F\subset {\ell }_p,dimF=n}in{f}_{G\subset L_q,dimG=n}d(F,G){\sim }_{c_{pq}}{n}^{(q/2)(1/q-1/p)}$.
