Commutators of quasinilpotents and invariant subspaces

A. Katavolos, C. Stamatopoulos (1998)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

It is proved that the set Q of quasinilpotent elements in a Banach algebra is an ideal, i.e. equal to the Jacobson radical, if (and only if) the condition [Q,Q] ⊆ Q (or a similar condition concerning anticommutators) holds. In fact, if the inner derivation defined by a quasinilpotent element p maps Q into itself then p ∈ Rad A. Higher commutator conditions of quasinilpotents are also studied. It is shown that if a Banach algebra satisfies such a condition, then every quasinilpotent element...

Narrow operators and rich subspaces of Banach spaces with the Daugavet property

Vladimir M. Kadets, Roman V. Shvidkoy, Dirk Werner (2001)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let X be a Banach space. We introduce a formal approach which seems to be useful in the study of those properties of operators on X which depend only on the norms of the images of elements. This approach is applied to the Daugavet equation for norms of operators; in particular we develop a general theory of narrow operators and rich subspaces of spaces X with the Daugavet property previously studied in the context of the classical spaces C(K) and L₁(μ).

First results on spectrally bounded operators

M. Mathieu, G. J. Schick (2002)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

A linear mapping T from a subspace E of a Banach algebra into another Banach algebra is defined to be spectrally bounded if there is a constant M ≥ 0 such that r(Tx) ≤ Mr(x) for all x ∈ E, where r(·) denotes the spectral radius. We study some basic properties of this class of operators, which are sometimes analogous to, sometimes very different from, those of bounded operators between Banach spaces.

The algebraic size of the family of injective operators

Luis Bernal-González (2017)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper, a criterion for the existence of large linear algebras consisting, except for zero, of one-to-one operators on an infinite dimensional Banach space is provided. As a consequence, it is shown that every separable infinite dimensional Banach space supports a commutative infinitely generated free linear algebra of operators all of whose nonzero members are one-to-one. In certain cases, the assertion holds for nonseparable Banach spaces.
