Triangularizability of trace-class operators with increasing spectrum

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: For any measurable set E of a measure space (X,mu), let PE be the (orthogonal) projection on the Hilbert space L2(X,mu) with the range ran,PE=finL2(X,mu):f=0a.e.onEc that is called a standard subspace of L2(X,mu). Let T be an operator on L2(X,mu) having increasing spectrum relative to standard compressions, that is, for any measurable sets E and F with EsubseteqF, the spectrum of the operator PET|ran,PE is contained in the spectrum of the operator PFT|ran,PF. In 2009, Marcoux, Mastnak and Radjavi asked whether the operator T has a non-trivial invariant standard subspace. They answered this question affirmatively when either the measure space (X,mu) is discrete or the operator T has finite rank. We study this problem in the case of trace-class kernel operators. We also slightly strengthen the above-mentioned result for finite-rank operators.
