Review text

Let \({\mathcal A}(E)\) be the class of all bounded linear operators on a complex Banach space E having the property that the restriction of A on any closed infinite-dimensional invariant subspace M for A is not bijective. A bounded operator A on E is said to be a Riesz operator if for each complex \(\lambda\) \(\neq 0\), \(\lambda\) I-A is a Fredholm operator. In this note we give the following characterization of the class \({\mathcal R}(E)\) of all Riesz operator. Theorem: \(A\in {\mathcal R}(E)\) if and only if the following conditions hold a) \(A\in {\mathcal A}(E).\) b) For each spectral point \(\lambda\) \(\neq 0\) there exists a spectral set \(\sigma\) which contains \(\lambda\) such that \(0\not\in \sigma.\) An example of a convolution operator \(T_{\mu}\in {\mathcal A}(E)\) defined on the group algebra \(E=L_ 1(G)\), where G is a compact Abelian group, shows that the inclusion \({\mathcal A}(E)\supseteq {\mathcal R}(E)\) is generally proper. Moreover the class \({\mathcal A}(E)\) may be replaced with the class \({\mathcal A}_ 0(E)\) of all bounded linear operators A having the property that the restriction of A on any closed infinite-dimensional invariant subspace M for A does not admit a bounded inverse.
