Square functions for Ritt operators on noncommutative \(L^p\)-spaces (Q2873584)

Let \(X\) be a Banach space. We say that \(T:X\to X\) is a Ritt operator if there exist two constants \(C_0\) and \(C_1\) such that \(\|T^k\|\leq C_0\) for each \(k\geq0\) and \(k\|T^k-T^{k-1}\|\leq C_1\) for each \(k\geq1\). This is equivalent to the ``Ritt condition'': NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\sigma(T)\subseteq \overline{\mathbb{D}}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE and there exists \(C>0\) such that \(\|(\lambda-T)^{-1}\|\leq \frac{C}{|\lambda-1|}\) for any \(\lambda \in \mathbb{C}-\overline{\mathbb{D}}\).NEWLINENEWLINEThis paper is organized in a technical way. After an introduction and preliminaries in Sections 1 and 2, the author proves some preliminary results concerning Col-Ritt and Row-Ritt operators. In Section 4, author shows that in general, `column and row square function' are not equivalent. We do not know if the two square functions are equivalent in general. In the last section, the author gives a sufficient condition for an such equivalence to hold true.
