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 $T$.

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.

We consider simultaneous solutions of operator Sylvester equations $A_{i}X-X{B}_i=C_i$ (1 ≤ i ≤ k), where $(A₁,...,A_k)$ and $(B₁,...,B_k)$ are commuting k-tuples of bounded linear operators on Banach spaces and ℱ, respectively, and $(C₁,...,C_k)$ is a (compatible) k-tuple of bounded linear operators from ℱ to , and prove that if the joint Taylor spectra of $(A₁,...,A_k)$ and $(B₁,...,B_k)$ do not intersect, then this system of Sylvester equations has a unique simultaneous solution.

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.

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 $X$ 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...

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,...

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 < ∞. ...

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

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...

We study the stability of a-Browder-type theorems for orthogonal direct sums of operators. We give counterexamples which show that in general the properties $\left(\mathrm{SBaw}\right)$, $\left(\mathrm{SBab}\right)$, $\left(\mathrm{SBw}\right)$ and $\left(\mathrm{SBb}\right)$ are not preserved under direct sums of operators. However, we prove that if $S$ and $T$ are bounded linear operators acting on Banach spaces and having the property $\left(\mathrm{SBab}\right)$, then $S\oplus T$ has the property $\left(\mathrm{SBab}\right)$ if and only if ${\sigma }_{{\mathrm{SBF}}_{+}^{-}}(S\oplus T)={\sigma }_{{\mathrm{SBF}}_{+}^{-}}\left(S\right)\cup {\sigma }_{{\mathrm{SBF}}_{+}^{-}}\left(T\right)$, where ${\sigma }_{{\mathrm{SBF}}_{+}^{-}}\left(T\right)$ is the upper semi-B-Weyl spectrum of $T$. We obtain analogous preservation results for the properties $\left(\mathrm{SBaw}\right)$,...

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 < ∞.

Let A be a multiplicative subgroup of $\mathbb{Z}{*}_p$. Define the k-fold sumset of A to be $kA=x_1+...+x_k:x_i\in A,1\le i\le k$. We show that $6A\supseteq \mathbb{Z}{*}_p$ for $\left|A\right|>p^{11/23+ϵ}$. In addition, we extend a result of Shkredov to show that ${\left|2A\right|\gg \left|A\right|}^{8/5-ϵ}$ for $\left|A\right|\ll p^{5/9}$.

In this paper, we obtain new sufficient conditions for the operators $F_{{\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2,...,{\alpha }_n,\beta }\left(z\right)$ and $G_{{\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2,...,{\alpha }_n,\beta }\left(z\right)$ to be univalent in the open unit disc $𝒰$, where the functions $f_1,f_2,...,f_n$ belong to the classes $S^{*}(a,b)$ and $𝒦(a,b)$. The order of convexity for the operators $F_{{\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2,...,{\alpha }_n,\beta }\left(z\right)$ and $G_{{\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2,...,{\alpha }_n,\beta }\left(z\right)$ is also determined. Furthermore, and for $\beta =1$, we obtain sufficient conditions for the operators $F_n\left(z\right)$ and $G_n\left(z\right)$ to be in the class $𝒦(a,b)$. Several corollaries and consequences of the main results are also considered.

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.

For a linear operator T in a Banach space let ${\sigma }_p\left(T\right)$ denote the point spectrum of T, let ${\sigma }_{p,n}\left(T\right)$ for finite n > 0 be the set of all $\lambda \in {\sigma }_p\left(T\right)$ such that dim ker(T - λ) = n and let ${\sigma }_{p,\infty }\left(T\right)$ be the set of all $\lambda \in {\sigma }_p\left(T\right)$ for which ker(T - λ) is infinite-dimensional. It is shown that ${\sigma }_p\left(T\right)$ is ${ℱ}_{\sigma }$, ${\sigma }_{p,\infty }\left(T\right)$ is ${ℱ}_{\sigma \delta }$ and for each finite n the set ${\sigma }_{p,n}\left(T\right)$ is the intersection of an ${ℱ}_{\sigma }$ set and a ${}_{\delta }$ set provided T is closable and the domain of T is separable and weakly σ-compact. For closed densely defined operators in a separable Hilbert space a more...
