Abstract: The classical Perron-Frobenius theory asserts that an irreducible matrix A has cyclic peripheral spectrum and its spectral radius r(A) is an eigenvalue corresponding to a positive eigenvector. In Radjavi (1999) and Radjavi and Rosenthal (2000), this was extended to semigroups of matrices and of compact operators on Lp-spaces. We extend this approach to operators on an arbitrary Banach lattice X. We prove, in particular, that if iS is a commutative irreducible semigroup of positive operators on X containing a compact operator T then there exist positive disjoint vectors x1,...,xr in X such that every operator in iS acts as a positive scalar multiple of a permutation on x1,...,xr. Compactness of T may be replaced with the assumption that T is peripherally Riesz, i.e., the peripheral spectrum of T is separated from the rest of the spectrum and the corresponding spectral subspace X1 is finite dimensional. Applying the results to the semigroup generated an irreducible peripherally Riesz operator T, we show that T is a cyclic permutation on x1,...,xr, X1=Spanx1,...,xr, and if S=limjbjTnj for some (bj) in mathbbR+ and njoinfty then S=c(T|X1)koplus0 for some cge0 and 0lek<r. We also extend results of Abramovich et al. (1992) and Grobler (1995) about peripheral spectra of irreducible operators.
