On a question of Mbekhta.
The present paper deals with a question of M. Mbekhta concerning partial isometries on Banach spaces.

We investigate when a C*-algebra element generates a closed ideal, and discuss Moore-Penrose and commuting generalized inverses.
We give several necessary and sufficient conditions in order that a bounded linear operator on a Banach space be nilpotent. We also discuss three necessary conditions for nilpotency. Furthermore, we construct an infinite family (in one-to-one correspondence with the square-summable sequences of strictly positive real numbers) of nonnilpotent quasinilpotent operators on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, all the iterates of each of which have closed range. Each of these operators (as well as...
An operator with infinite dimensional kernel is positive iff it is a positive scalar times a certain product of three projections.
We give a survey of results concerning various classes of bounded linear operators in a Banach space defined by means of kernels and ranges. We show that many of these classes define a spectrum that satisfies the spectral mapping property.
