On the functional calculus for subnormal operators

From MaRDI portal





For a pure subnormal operator \(S\) on a complex Hilbert space \(H\) let \(\Phi: R^\infty(\mu, \sigma(S))\to L(H)\) denote its Conway-Olin functional calculus [\textit{J. B. Conway} and \textit{R. F. Olin}, ``A functional calculus for subnormal operators. II, Mem. Am. Math. Soc. 184, 61 p. (1977; Zbl 0353.47010)]. Then for any sequence \((f_n)\) in \(R^\infty(\mu, \sigma(S))\) converging \(\text{weak}^*\) to zero and any \(x\in H\) it is shown \(\|\Phi(f_n)^*x\|\to 0\). As a consequence the closed unit ball of \(R^\infty(S^*)\) is compact with respect to the strong operator topology.
