The spectrum of an interpolated operator and analytic multivalued functions (Q797814)

Let \([B_ 0,B_ 1]\) be a complex interpolation pair and \(T:(B_ 0+B_ 1)\to (B_ 0+B_ 1)\) be a linear map whose restriction to each interpolation space \([B_ 0,B_ 1]_ s\) is a bounded operator on that space with spectrum \(Sp_ s(T)\). Under mild conditions on T it is shown that the set-valued map \(\lambda\to Sp_{Re \lambda}(T)\) is an analytic multivalued function. This fact is used to unify and generalise a number of previously known results about the spectrum of an interpolated operator, and also to motivate some new ones.
