Weak subnormality of operators (Q1865238): Difference between revisions

The weak subnormality of an operator is a new notion introduced by the authors as a generalization of subnormality. In the present paper, the authors investigate the gap between weak subnormality and 2-hyponormality for Toeplitz operators. Furthermore, they study the spectrum of the minimal partially normal extension of a weakly subnormal operator. In the last section of the paper, they provide an example of an invertible subnormal operator whose inverse is neither 2-hyponormal nor weakly subnormal.
