Abstract: We study the interpolation and extrapolation properties of strictly singular operators between different Lp spaces. To this end, the structure of strictly singular non-compact operators between Lp−Lq spaces is analyzed. Among other things, we clarify the relation between strict singularity and the L-characteristic set of an operator. In particular, Krasnoselskii's interpolation theorem for compact operators is extended to the class of strictly singular operators.


The authors establish extrapolation and interpolation properties of strictly singular operators between different \(L_p\)-spaces that complement their earlier results for endomorphisms [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 138, No. 2, 675--686 (2010; Zbl 1182.47032)], and extend the classical compact interpolation result of \textit{M. A. Krasnosel'skij} [Sov. Math., Dokl. 1, 229--231 (1960; Zbl 0097.10202); translation from Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 131, 246--248 (1960)] for \(L_p\)-spaces. The main results are as follows: (i) Let \(1 < p_i, q_i < \infty\) for \(i = 0, 1\), where \(p_0 \neq p_1\) and \(q_0 \neq q_1\). Suppose that either \(\min\{\frac{q_0}{p_0},\frac{q_1}{p_1}\} \leq 1\), or \(\min\{\frac{q_0}{p_0},\frac{q_1}{p_1}\} > 1\) and \(\frac{q_1-q_0}{p_1-p_0} < 0\). If \(T\) is a bounded linear operator \(L_{p_i} \to L_{q_i}\) for \(i = 0,1\) and there exists \(\theta \in (0,1)\) such that \(T: L_{p_{\theta}} \to L_{q_{\theta}}\) is strictly singular, then \(T\) is a compact operator \(L_{p_{\tau}} \to L_{q_{\tau}}\) for any \(0 < \tau < 1\). (Here, \(\frac{1}{p_\theta} = \frac{\theta}{p_0} + \frac{1-\theta}{p_1}\) and similarly for \(q_\theta\), \(p_\tau\) and \(q_\tau\).) (ii) If \(T\) is bounded \(L_{p_0} \to L_{q_0}\) and strictly singular \(L_{p_1} \to L_{q_1}\), then \(T\) is strictly singular \(L_{p_{\theta}} \to L_{q_{\theta}}\) for any \(0 < \theta < 1\). Various examples show that the assumptions in (i) and (ii) are sharp. Moreover, basic sequence techniques in \(L_p\)-spaces are used in order to carefully analyse the structure of the class \[ V(L_p,L_q) = \{T \in \mathcal B(L_p,L_q): T \;\text{strictly singular non-compact}\;L_p \to L_q\}. \]
