Local method for nonlocal operators on Banach spaces. (Q4801262)

The authors present a general local method of studying the Fredholmness and \(n(d)\) normality of operators in Banach algebras of bounded linear operators with discrete groups of shifts. The method has emerged from their study of Banach algebras generated by singular integral operators of multiplication by piecewise continuous functions and the shift defined by \(V_g(\phi(t))=| g'(t)|^{1/p}\phi(g(t))\), \(t\in\Gamma\), \(g\in G\), where \(G\) is a discrete group of piecewise smooth homeomorphisms of a composed contour \(\Gamma\) without cusps onto itself. The method is applied to operators of the form \(\sum^m_{k=1} A_k P_k+ H_0\) where all operators \(A_k\) belong to a unital Banach algebra \({\mathcal A}\), \(\sum P_k= I\), \(H_0\) belongs to the closed ideal of all compact operators, commutators \(AP_k- P_kA\) and products \(P_iP_j\), \(i\neq j\).
