Spectral mapping theorem for approximate spectra and its applications (Q1812283)

It is known that the spectral mapping theorem holds for the approximate and the defect spectrum of a bounded linear operator \(T,\) if we consider analytic functions defined on neighborhoods of the spectrum of \(T\) which are not constant on each component of their domains of definition, see, for example, \textit{M. Mbekhta} and \textit{V. Müller} [Stud. Math. 119, 129--147 (1996; Zbl 0857.47002)]. Using the classical Runge's theorem to approximate analytic functions by rational functions, the author shows that the spectral mapping theorem for the approximate and the defect spectrum holds for all analytic functions defined on neighborhoods of the spectrum of \(T\). Moreover, the author shows that under an assumption of decomposability, the defect spectrum, the approximate spectrum and the spectrum of an analytic elementary operator are equal.
