Some facts from descriptive set theory concerning essential spectra and applications
Let X be a separable Banach space and denote by 𝓛(X) (resp. 𝒦(ℂ)) the set of all bounded linear operators on X (resp. the set of all compact subsets of ℂ). We show that the maps from 𝓛(X) into 𝒦(ℂ) which assign to each element of 𝓛(X) its spectrum, approximate point spectrum, essential spectrum, Weyl essential spectrum, Browder essential spectrum, respectively, are Borel maps, where 𝓛(X) (resp. 𝒦(ℂ)) is endowed with the strong operator topology (resp. Hausdorff topology). This enables us...
