Locally quasi-nilpotent elementary operators

Abstract: Let

A

be a unital dense algebra of linear mappings on a complex vector space

X

. Let

p h i = s u m_{i = 1}^{n} M_{a_{i}, b_{i}}

be a locally quasi-nilpotent elementary operator of length

n

on

A

. We show that, if

a_{1}, l d o t s, a_{n}

is locally linearly independent, then the local dimension of

V (p h i) = s p a b_{i} a_{j} : 1 l e q i, j l e q n

is at most

f r a c n (n - 1) 2

. If

l D i m V (p h i) = f r a c n (n - 1) 2

, then there exists a representation of

p h i

as

p h i = s u m_{i = 1}^{n} M_{u_{i}, v_{i}}

with

v_{i} u_{j} = 0

for

i g e q j

. Moreover, we give a complete characterization of locally quasi-nilpotent elementary operators of length 3.
