In this survey article the author discusses three properties possessed by bounded decomposable operators on a complex Banach space. See \textit{I. Colojoară} and \textit{C. Foiaş} [``Theory of generalized spectral operators, New York (1968; Zbl 0189.44201)]. The property \((\beta)\) was introduced by \textit{E. Bishop} [Pac. J. Math. 9, 379-397 (1959; Zbl 0086.31702)]. Property \((C)\) was first formulated by \textit{N. Dunford} [Bull. Am. Math. Soc. 64, 217-274 (1958; Zbl 0088.32102)]. Given a closed subset \(F\) of \(\mathbb{C}\), the global spectral subspace corresponding to \(F\) is defined by \(X_T(F)= \{x\in X\mid\) there is an analytic \(X\)-valued function \(f:\mathbb{C}\setminus F\mapsto X\) for which \((T-\lambda I)f(\lambda)= x\), for all \(\lambda\in\mathbb{C}\setminus F\}\). Then \(T\) is said to have property \((\delta)\) if every open covering \(\mathbb{C}= U\cup V\) of \(\mathbb{C}\) gives rise to a decomposition \(X= X_T(\text{cl }U)+ X_T(\text{cl }V)\) of \(X\) into a sum of two global spectral subspaces. It is known that (a) \(T\) is decomposable if and only if \(T\) has properties \((C)\) and \((\delta)\), (b) If \(T\) has properties \((\beta)\) and \((\delta)\), then \(T\) is decomposable. The author formulates theorems giving special cases in which one of \((\beta)\), \((C)\) and \((\delta)\) implies decomposability. These pertain to multipliers on commutative Banach algebras. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0911.00033].
