The Drazin inverse of bounded operators with commutativity up to a factor (Q2378692)

Let \(B(\mathcal X)\) be the set of all bounded linear operators on a Banach space \(\mathcal X\). If \(T\in B(\mathcal X)\), we denote \(N(T)\) and \(R(T)\) for the null space and the range of \(T\), respectively. For \(T\in B(\mathcal X)\), the Drazin inverse is an operator \(T^D\in B(\mathcal X)\) satisfying the equations \(TT^D=T^DT\), \(T^DTT^D=T^D\) and \(T^{k+1}T^D=T^k\), where \(k\) is the smallest nonnegative integer such that \(R(T^{k+1})=R(T^k)\) and \(N(T^{k+1})=N(T^k)\). The paper under review concerns the Drazin inverses of bounded linear operators with commutativity up to a factor. The author explores the conditions for the Drazin invertibility and gives an explicit representation of the Drazin inverse \((P-Q)^D\) in terms of \(P,P^D,Q\), and \(Q^D\), under the condition of commutativity up to a factor \(PQ=\lambda QP\).
