On operators satisfying an inequality (Q385829): Difference between revisions

Let \(\mathbb B(\mathcal H)\) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on an infinite dimensional separable complex Hilbert space \(\mathcal H\). \(T\in \mathbb B(\mathcal H)\) is called \textit{hyponormal} if \(T^*T \geq TT^*\), and T is called \textit{paranormal} (resp., \(*\)-\textit{paranormal}) if \(\|T^2x\| \geq \|Tx\|^2\) (resp., \(\|T^2x\| \geq \|T^*x\|^2\)) for all unit vectors \(x\in \mathcal H\). \(T\in\mathbb B(\mathcal H)\) belongs to the \textit{class \(A\)} (resp., \(*\)-\textit{class} \(A\) or \textit{quasi-\(*\)-class} \(A\)) if \(|T^2| \geq |T|^2\) (resp., \(|T^2| \geq |T^*|^2\) or \(T^*|T^2|T \geq T^*|T^*|^2T\)). An operator \(T\) is called \(k\)-\textit{quasi-\(*\)-class \(A\)} if \[ {T^*}^k\left(|T^2|-|T^*|^2\right)T^k \geq 0,\quad k\in \mathbb N. \] In the paper under review, the author extends some spectral properties of quasi-class \(A\) and quasi-\(*\)-class \(A\) operators to \(k\)-quasi-\(*\)-class \(A\) operators. For instance, a bounded operator \(T\in\mathbb B(X)\) is said to be \textit{polaroid} if every isolated point of the spectrum is a pole of the resolvent, where \(X\) is a complex Banach space. Also, \(T\) is said to be \textit{algebraically \(k\)-quasi-\(*\)-class \(A\)} if \(p(T)\) is \(k\)-quasi-\(*\)-class \(A\) for some nonconstant polynomial \(p(z)\). The author proves that an algebraically \(k\)-quasi-\(*\)-class \(A\) operator is polaroid. Subsequently, the author proves some other variants of Weyl's theorem for \(k\)-quasi-\(*\)-class \(A\) operators.
