Abstract: We study a class of left-invertible operators which we call weakly concave operators. It includes the class of concave operators and some subclasses of expansive strict

m

-isometries with

m > 2

. We prove a Wold-type decomposition for weakly concave operators. We also obtain a Berger-Shaw-type theorem for analytic finitely cyclic weakly concave operators. The proofs of these results rely heavily on a spectral dichotomy for left-invertible operators. It provides a fairly close relationship, written in terms of the reciprocal automorphism of the Riemann sphere, between the spectra of a left-invertible operator and any of its left inverses. We further place the class of weakly concave operators, as the term

m a t h c a l A_{1}

, in the chain

m a t h c a l A_{0} s u b s e t e q m a t h c a l A_{1} s u b s e t e q l d o t s s u b s e t e q m a t h c a l A_{i n f t y}

of collections of left-invertible operators. We show that most of the aforementioned results can be proved for members of these classes. Subtleties arise depending on whether the index

k

of the class

m a t h c a l A_{k}

is finite or not. In particular, a Berger-Shaw-type theorem fails to be true for members of~

m a t h c a l A_{i n f t y}

. This discrepancy is better revealed in the context of

C^{*}

- and

W^{*}

-algebras.
