We prove that compact AC-operators have a representation as a combination of disjoint projections which mirrors that for compact normal operators. We also show that unlike arbitrary AC-operators, compact AC-operators admit a unique splitting into real and imaginary parts, and that these parts must necessarily be compact.
Many authors have recently studied compact and weakly compact homomorphisms between function algebras. Among them, Lindström and Llavona [2] treat weakly compact continuous homomorphisms between algebras of type C(T) when T is a completely regular Hausdorff space.Llavona asked wether the results in [2] are valid in the case of algebras of differentiable functions on Banach spaces. The purpose of this note is to give an affirmative answer to this question, by proving that weakly compact homomorphisms...
Here we consider when the difference of two composition operators is compact on the weighted Dirichlet spaces . Specifically we study differences of composition operators on the Dirichlet space and S 2, the space of analytic functions whose first derivative is in H 2, and then use Calderón’s complex interpolation to extend the results to the general weighted Dirichlet spaces. As a corollary we consider composition operators induced by linear fractional self-maps of the disk.
In this Note we give some compact embedding theorems for Sobolev spaces, related to -tuples of vectors fields of class on .
Let Ω be a bounded domain in Rn and denote by idΩ the restriction operator from the Besov space Bpq1+n/p(Rn) into the generalized Lipschitz space Lip(1,-α)(Ω). We study the sequence of entropy numbers of this operator and prove that, up to logarithmic factors, it behaves asymptotically like ek(idΩ) ~ k-1/p if α > max (1 + 2/p + 1/q, 1/p). Our estimates improve previous results by Edmunds and Haroske.
Compact composition operators on , where G is a region in the complex plane, and the spectra of these operators were described by D. Swanton ( Compact composition operators on B(D), Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 56 (1976), 152-156). In this short note we characterize all compact endomorphisms, not necessarily those induced by composition operators, on , where D is the unit disc, and determine their spectra.
We investigate compact operators between approximation spaces, paying special attention to the limit case. Applications are given to embeddings between Besov spaces.
