Surgery on spectral sets. II: The multiply connected case

Let T be an operator on a Hilbert space H. Let B(H) denote the algebra of bounded linear operators on H. For a set \(S\subset {\mathbb{C}}\), let R(S) denote the uniform closure of the rational functions with poles off S. A compact set \(S\subset {\mathbb{C}}\) is a K-spectral set for \(T\in B(H)\), if \[ \| f(T)\| \leq K\| f\| =\sup_{z\in S}| f(z)|, \] for \(f\in R(S)\), K is a constant. When \(K=1\), S is called a spectral set for T. The author introduced the notion of a nice n-holed set \(S\subset {\mathbb{C}}\), and proved the following interesting result. Theorem. Let S be a nice n-hold set in \({\mathbb{C}}\) and is a spectral set for \(T\in B(H)\), where S is a connected and R(S) is a Dirichlet algebra. Let G be a simply connected open set with \(\sigma\) (T)\(\subset G\). Then \(S\cap \bar G\) is a K-spectral set for T (and T is similar to an oprator for which \(S\subset \bar G\) is a spectral set. A similar result is also proved concerning the concept of a complete K- spectral set. [For part I see J. Oper. Theory 16, 235-243 (1986; Zbl 0629.47004).]
