Remark on sums of complemented subspaces
The class of Rosenthal linear relations in normed spaces is introduced and studied in terms of their first and second conjugates. We investigate the relationship between a Rosenthal linear relation and its conjugate. In this paper, we also study the semi-Tauberian linear relations following the pattern followed for the study of the Tauberian linear relations. We prove that the semi-Tauberian linear relations share some of the properties of Tauberian linear relations and they are related to Rosenthal...
A scattered element of a Banach algebra is an element with at most countable spectrum. The set of all scattered elements is denoted by (). The scattered radical is the largest ideal consisting of scattered elements. We characterize in several ways central elements of modulo the scattered radical. As a consequence, it is shown that the following conditions are equivalent: (i) () + () ⊂ (); (ii) ()() ⊂ (); (iii) .
The class of Sturm-Liouville systems is defined. It appears to be a subclass of Riesz-spectral systems, since it is shown that the negative of a Sturm-Liouville operator is a Riesz-spectral operator on L^2(a,b) and the infinitesimal generator of a C_0-semigroup of bounded linear operators.
