Abstract: Given Nge2 closed subspaces M1,dotsc,MN of a Hilbert space X, let Pk denote the orthogonal projection onto Mk, 1lekleN. It is known that the sequence (xn), defined recursively by x0=x and xn+1=PNcdotsP1xn for nge0, converges in norm to PMx as noinfty for all xinX, where PM denotes the orthogonal projection onto M=M1capdotsccapMN. Moreover, the rate of convergence is either exponentially fast for all xinX or as slow as one likes for appropriately chosen initial vectors xinX. We give a new estimate in terms of natural geometric quantities on the rate of convergence in the case when it is known to be exponentially fast. More importantly, we then show that even when the rate of convergence is arbitrarily slow there exists, for each real number alpha>0, a dense subset Xalpha of X such that |xnPMx|=o(nalpha) as noinfty for all xinXalpha. Furthermore, there exists another dense subset Xinfty of X such that, if xinXinfty, then |xnPMx|=o(nalpha) as noinfty for all alpha>0. These latter results are obtained as consequences of general properties of Ritt operators. As a by-product, we also strengthen the unquantified convergence result by showing that PMx is in fact the limit of a series which converges unconditionally.
