On the points of multiplicity of monotone operators
We show results about the existence and the nonexistence of a projection from the space of all linear and bounded operators from into onto the subspace of all representable operators.

Let V be the classical Volterra operator on L²(0,1), and let z be a complex number. We prove that I-zV is power bounded if and only if Re z ≥ 0 and Im z = 0, while I-zV² is power bounded if and only if z = 0. The first result yields as n → ∞, an improvement of [Py]. We also study some other related operator pencils.
We present sufficient conditions for the existence of th powers of a quasihomogeneous Toeplitz operator , where is a radial polynomial function and , are natural numbers. A large class of examples is provided to illustrate our results. To our best knowledge those examples are not covered by the current literature. The main tools in the proof of our results are the Mellin transform and some classical theorems of complex analysis.
Two generalizations of the notion of principal eigenvalue for elliptic operators in are examined in this paper. We prove several results comparing these two eigenvalues in various settings: general operators in dimension one; self-adjoint operators; and “limit periodic” operators. These results apply to questions of existence and uniqueness for some semilinear problems in the whole space. We also indicate several outstanding open problems and formulate some conjectures.
