On spectral sets having connected complement

From MaRDI portal





The main result here is a characterization of all bounded linear operators \(T\) on a Hilbert space that have a particular compact \(X\) as a spectral set, supposing \(X\) has a connected complement. (See the preceding review [\textit{A. Lebow}, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 7, 64--90 (1963; Zbl 0145.39301)].) In particular, each \(T\) are of the form \(T_0\oplus \sum_{j=1}^\infty \oplus \varphi_j(S_j)\) where \(T_0\) is normal with spectrum in \(\partial X\), such \(S_j\) is a completely non-unitary contraction, and each \(\varphi_j\) is conformal from the unit disc onto a component of interior \(X\). The construction of \(\varphi_j(S_j)\) is too long to reproduce here.
