Bounded point evaluations for cyclic operators and local spectra (Q2758992)

Several results are proved for a bounded operator \(T\) on a Hilbert space which is cyclic and eitherNEWLINENEWLINENEWLINE(a) \(T\) is a unilateral weighted shift orNEWLINENEWLINENEWLINE(b) \(T\) satisfies the Dunford condition.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEIn case (a) a condition is given such thatNEWLINENEWLINENEWLINE(i) \(\Gamma(T)\setminus \sigma_{ap}(T)= B_a(T)\), where \(\Gamma(T)\) is the compression spectrum, \(\sigma_{ap}(T)\) the approximate point spectrum, and \(B_a(T)\) the set of bounded point evaluations of \(T\).NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEFor (b) let \(x\) be a cyclic vector for \(T\), \(\sigma_T(x)\) the local spectrum of \(T\) and let \(S\) be a bounded operator commuting with \(T\) such that \(\dim\ker(S^*)< \infty\). It is proved thatNEWLINENEWLINENEWLINE(ii) \(\sigma_p(T)=\emptyset\) implies \(\sigma_T(Sx)= \sigma(T)\).NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThese results extend ones obtained by \textit{R. L. Williams} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 187, No. 3, 842-850 (1994; Zbl 0817.47032)].
