On the fine spectrum of the operator defined by the lambda matrix over the spaces of null and convergent sequences (Q370133)

The paper attempts to determine the fine spectrum with respect to \textit{S. Goldberg}'s classification of the operator defined by the lambda matrix over the sequence spaces \(c_0\) and \(c\) [Unbounded linear operators. Theory and applications. Reprint of the 1966 edition. New York, NY: Dover Publications, Inc. (1985; Zbl 0925.47001)]. It contains five sections. The first section is introductory in nature. The second section deals with subdivisions of the spectrum. In this section, the authors define the notions of point spectrum, continuous spectrum, residual spectrum, approximate point spectrum, defect spectrum, and compression spectrum. In the third section, the authors examine these different spectra for a matrix operator \(\Lambda\) on the sequence space \(c_0\). In the fourth section, the authors investigate the fine spectrum of the operator \(\Lambda\) over the sequence space \(c\). The authors also investigate some other relevant results within these sections. Finally, the authors summarize their major findings with an outlook to a forthcoming paper as concluding remarks in the fifth section.
