We introduce the definition of $p$-limited completely continuous operators, $1\le p<\infty$. The question of whether a space of operators has the property that every $p$-limited subset is relative compact when the dual of the domain and the codomain have this property is studied using $p$-limited completely continuous evaluation operators.

For p ≥ 1, a subset K of a Banach space X is said to be relatively p-compact if $K\subset {\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }\alpha ₙxₙ:\alpha ₙ\in Ball\left(l_{p^{\text{'}}}\right)$, where p’ = p/(p-1) and $xₙ\in l_p^s\left(X\right)$. An operator T ∈ B(X,Y) is said to be p-compact if T(Ball(X)) is relatively p-compact in Y. Similarly, weak p-compactness may be defined by considering $xₙ\in l_p^w\left(X\right)$. It is proved that T is (weakly) p-compact if and only if T* factors through a subspace of $l_p$ in a particular manner. The normed operator ideals $(K_p,{\kappa }_p)$ of p-compact operators and $(W_p,{\omega }_p)$ of weakly p-compact operators, arising from these factorizations,...

The main result is as follows. Let X be a Banach space and let Y be a closed subspace of X. Assume that the pair $(X*,Y^{\perp })$ has the λ-bounded approximation property. Then there exists a net $\left(S_{\alpha }\right)$ of finite-rank operators on X such that $S_{\alpha }\left(Y\right)\subset Y$ and $\left|\right|S_{\alpha }\left|\right|\le \lambda$ for all α, and $\left(S_{\alpha }\right)$ and $\left(S{*}_{\alpha }\right)$ converge pointwise to the identity operators on X and X*, respectively. This means that the pair (X,Y) has the λ-bounded duality approximation property.

Results of Emmanuele and Drewnowski are used to study the containment of c₀ in the space $K_{w*}(X*,Y)$, as well as the complementation of the space $K_{w*}(X*,Y)$ of w*-w compact operators in the space $L_{w*}(X*,Y)$ of w*-w operators from X* to Y.

In this paper the hyponormal operators on Krein spaces are introduced. We state conditions for the hyponormality of bounded operators focusing, in particular, on those operators $T$ for which there exists a fundamental decomposition $𝕂={𝕂}^{+}\oplus {𝕂}^{-}$ of the Krein space $𝕂$ with ${𝕂}^{+}$ and ${𝕂}^{-}$ invariant under $T$.

For the convolution operators $A_a^{\alpha }$ with symbols ${a\left(\right|\xi \left|\right)\left|\xi \right|}^{-\alpha }expi\left|\xi \right|$, 0 ≤ Re α < n, $a\left(\right|\xi \left|\right)\in L_{\infty }$, we construct integral representations and give the exact description of the set of pairs (1/p,1/q) for which the operators are bounded from $L_p$ to $L_q$.

Let 1 ≤ p < ∞, $={\left(Xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of Banach spaces and $l_p\left(\right)$ the coresponding vector valued sequence space. Let $={\left(Xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$, $={\left(Yₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be two sequences of Banach spaces, $={\left(Vₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$, Vₙ: Xₙ → Yₙ, a sequence of bounded linear operators and 1 ≤ p,q < ∞. We define the multiplication operator $M_{}:l_p\left(\right)\to l_q\left(\right)$ by $M_{}\left({\left(xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}\right):={\left(Vₙ\left(xₙ\right)\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $M_{}$ to be 2-summing when (p,q) is one of the couples (1,2), (2,1), (2,2), (1,1), (p,1), (p,2), (2,p), (1,p), (p,q); in the last case 1 < p < 2, 1 < q < ∞. ...

We classify, up to isomorphism, the spaces of compact operators (E,F), where E and F are the Banach spaces of all continuous functions defined on the compact spaces $2^{}\times [0,\alpha ]$, the topological products of Cantor cubes $2^{}$ and intervals of ordinal numbers [0,α].

We study the space of p-compact operators, ${}_p$, using the theory of tensor norms and operator ideals. We prove that ${}_p$ is associated to $/d_p$, the left injective associate of the Chevet-Saphar tensor norm $d_p$ (which is equal to $g_{p^{\text{'}}}^{\text{'}}$). This allows us to relate the theory of p-summing operators to that of p-compact operators. Using the results known for the former class and appropriate hypotheses on E and F we prove that ${}_p(E;F)$ is equal to ${}_q(E;F)$ for a wide range of values of p and q, and show that our results...

Let 1 < p < ∞, q = p/(p-1) and for $f\in L^p(0,\infty )$ define $F\left(x\right)=(1/x){ʃ}_0^{x}f\left(t\right)dt$, x > 0. Moser’s Inequality states that there is a constant $C_p$ such that $su{p}_{a\le 1}su{p}_{f\in B_p}{ʃ}_0^{\infty }exp[a{x}^q{\left|F\left(x\right)\right|}^q-x]dx=C_p$ where $B_p$ is the unit ball of $L^p$. Moreover, the value a = 1 is sharp. We observe that $F=K_1$ f where the integral operator $K_1$ has a simple kernel K. We consider the question of for what kernels K(t,x), 0 ≤ t, x < ∞, this result can be extended, and proceed to discuss this when K is non-negative and homogeneous of degree -1. A sufficient condition on K is found for...

Motivated by some recent results by Li and Stević, in this paper we prove that a two-parameter family of Cesàro averaging operators ${}^{b,c}$ is bounded on the Dirichlet spaces ${}_{p,a}$. We also give a short and direct proof of boundedness of ${}^{b,c}$ on the Hardy space $H^p$ for 1 < p < ∞.

The case $p=1$ answers a question asked by Rosenthal in 1976.

Let ℳ be a type II₁ von Neumann algebra, τ a trace in ℳ, and L²(ℳ,τ) the GNS Hilbert space of τ. If L²(ℳ,τ)₊ is the completion of the set ${ℳ}_{sa}$ of selfadjoint elements, then each element ξ ∈ L²(ℳ,τ)₊ gives rise to a selfadjoint unbounded operator $L_{\xi }$ on L²(ℳ,τ). In this note we show that the exponential exp: L²(ℳ,τ)₊ → L²(ℳ,τ), $exp\left(\xi \right)=e^{i{L}_{\xi }}$, is continuous but not differentiable. The same holds for the Cayley transform $C\left(\xi \right)=(L_{\xi }-i){(L_{\xi }+i)}^{-1}$. We also show that the unitary group $U_{ℳ}\subset L²(ℳ,\tau )$ with the strong operator topology is not an...

We consider real Banach spaces X for which the quotient algebra (X)/ℐn(X) is finite-dimensional, where ℐn(X) stands for the ideal of inessential operators on X. We show that these spaces admit a decomposition as a finite direct sum of indecomposable subspaces $X_i$ for which $\left(X_i\right)/ℐn\left(X_i\right)$ is isomorphic as a real algebra to either the real numbers ℝ, the complex numbers ℂ, or the quaternion numbers ℍ. Moreover, the set of subspaces $X_i$ can be divided into subsets in such a way that if $X_i$ and $X_j$ are in different...

Let $L\left(H\right)$ denote the algebra of operators on a complex infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$. For $A,B\in L\left(H\right)$, the generalized derivation ${\delta }_{A,B}$ and the elementary operator ${\Delta }_{A,B}$ are defined by ${\delta }_{A,B}\left(X\right)=AX-XB$ and ${\Delta }_{A,B}\left(X\right)=AXB-X$ for all $X\in L\left(H\right)$. In this paper, we exhibit pairs $(A,B)$ of operators such that the range-kernel orthogonality of ${\delta }_{A,B}$ holds for the usual operator norm. We generalize some recent results. We also establish some theorems on the orthogonality of the range and the kernel of ${\Delta }_{A,B}$ with respect to the wider class of unitarily invariant...

Let $\varphi$ be an entire self-map of ${ℂ}^N$, $u_0$ be an entire function on ${ℂ}^N$ and $𝐮=(u_1,\cdots ,u_N)$ be a vector-valued entire function on ${ℂ}^N$. We extend the Stević-Sharma type operator to the classcial Fock spaces, by defining an operator $T_{u_0,𝐮,\varphi }$ as follows: $$-.4pt{T}_{u_0,𝐮,\varphi }f=u_0·f\circ \varphi +\sum _{i=1}^N{u}_i·\frac{\partial f}{\partial z_i}\circ \varphi .$$ We investigate the boundedness and compactness of $T_{u_0,𝐮,\varphi }$ on Fock spaces. The complex symmetry and self-adjointness of $T_{u_0,𝐮,\varphi }$ are also characterized.

Let $X$ be a Banach space, $ℬ\left(X\right)$ the algebra of bounded linear operators on $X$ and $(J,\parallel ·{\parallel }_J)$ an admissible Banach ideal of $ℬ\left(X\right)$. For $T\in ℬ\left(X\right)$, let $L_{J,T}$ and $R_{J,T}\in ℬ\left(J\right)$ denote the left and right multiplication defined by $L_{J,T}\left(A\right)=TA$ and $R_{J,T}\left(A\right)=AT$, respectively. In this paper, we study the transmission of some concepts related to recurrent operators between $T\in ℬ\left(X\right)$, and their elementary operators $L_{J,T}$ and $R_{J,T}$. In particular, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for $L_{J,T}$ and $R_{J,T}$ to be sequentially recurrent. Furthermore, we prove that $L_{J,T}$ is recurrent...

Let $L\left(H\right)$ denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$. For $A,B\in L\left(H\right)$, the generalized derivation ${\delta }_{A,B}$ and the multiplication operator $M_{A,B}$ are defined on $L\left(H\right)$ by ${\delta }_{A,B}\left(X\right)=AX-XB$ and $M_{A,B}\left(X\right)=AXB$. In this paper, we give a characterization of bounded operators $A$ and $B$ such that the range of $M_{A,B}$ is closed. We present some sufficient conditions for ${\delta }_{A,B}$ to have closed range. Some related results are also given.

We show that for a linear space of operators $ℳ\subseteq ℬ({\mathscr{H}}_1,{\mathscr{H}}_2)$ the following assertions are equivalent. (i) $ℳ$ is reflexive in the sense of Loginov-Shulman. (ii) There exists an order-preserving map $\Psi =({\psi }_1,{\psi }_2)$ on a bilattice $\mathrm{Bil}\left(ℳ\right)$ of subspaces determined by $ℳ$ with $P\le {\psi }_1(P,Q)$ and $Q\le {\psi }_2(P,Q)$ for any pair $(P,Q)\in \mathrm{Bil}\left(ℳ\right)$, and such that an operator $T\in ℬ({\mathscr{H}}_1,{\mathscr{H}}_2)$ lies in $ℳ$ if and only if ${\psi }_2(P,Q)T{\psi }_1(P,Q)=0$ for all $(P,Q)\in \mathrm{Bil}\left(ℳ\right)$. This extends the Erdos-Power type characterization of weakly closed bimodules over a nest algebra to reflexive spaces.

We provide a deep investigation of the notions of - and ${}^{\infty }$-hypoellipticity for partial differential operators with constant Colombeau coefficients. This involves generalized polynomials and fundamental solutions in the dual of a Colombeau algebra. Sufficient conditions and necessary conditions for - and ${}^{\infty }$-hypoellipticity are given

Let r and n be natural numbers. For n ≥ 2 all natural operators $T_{|ℳfₙ}⇝T*T^{r*}$ transforming vector fields on n-manifolds M to 1-forms on $T^{r*}M=J^r(M,ℝ)₀$ are classified. For n ≥ 3 all natural operators $T_{|ℳfₙ}⇝\Lambda ²T*T^{r*}$ transforming vector fields on n-manifolds M to 2-forms on $T^{r*}M$ are completely described.
