Algebras generated by idempotents and the symbol calculus for singular integral operators (Q1111152): Difference between revisions

The first part of this paper deals with Banach algebras generated by two idempotents or by two idempotents and one flip. The methods used here are partially related to Krupnik's book and are quite different from the standard one known from the \(C^*\)-theory. In the second part the authors apply these results to determine a ``local'' symbol for the Fredholm property in Banach algebras generated by singular integral operators with piecewise continuous coefficients and by a Carleman shift changing the orientation. In particular, this approach is applied to algebras of operators defined on the weighted Banach spaces: \(\ell^{p,\gamma}\), \(H^{\mu}_ 0(\rho)\) and \(L^ p(\Gamma,\rho)\).
