AbstractIn this paper we consider collections of compact operators on a real or complex Banach space including linear operators on finite-dimensional vector spaces. We show that such a collection is simultaneously triangularizable if and only if it is arbitrarily close to a simultaneously triangularizable collection of compact operators. As an application of these results we obtain an invariant subspace theorem for certain bounded operators. We further prove that in finite dimensions near reducibility implies reducibility whenever the ground field is or .

SynopsisIn 1966, J. M. Howie characterised the transformations of an arbitrary set that can be written as a product (under composition) of idempotent transformations of the same set. In 1967, J. A. Erdos considered the analogous problem for linear transformations of a finite-dimensional vector space and in 1983, R. J. Dawlings investigated the corresponding idea for bounded operators on a separable Hilbert space. In this paper we study the case of arbitrary vector spaces.

In (1), Atkinson characterized the set of Fredholm operators on a Banach space X as those bounded operators invertible modulo the two-sided ideal of compact operators on X. It follows from this characterization that the Fredholm operators can also be described as those bounded operators which are invertible modulo the two-sided ideal of bounded operators on X which have finite-dimensional range. This ideal is the socle of the algebra of all bounded operators on X. Now, if A is any ring with no nilpotent left or right ideals, then the concept of socle makes sense (the socle of A in this case is the algebraic sum of the minimal left ideals of A, or 0 if A has no minimal left ideals). Also, in this case, the socle is a two-sided ideal of A. In this paper we study the elements in a ring A which are invertible modulo the socle. We call these elements the Fredholm elements of A.

We provide a characterization of the finite dimensionality of vector spaces in terms of the right-sided invertibility of linear operators on them.

This chapter introduces the concept of stable completion and provides a concrete representation of unit vector Mathematical Double-Struck Capital A superscript n in terms of spaces of semi-lattices, with particular emphasis on the frontier between the definable and the topological categories. It begins by constructing a topological embedding of unit vector Mathematical Double-Struck Capital A superscript n into the inverse limit of a system of spaces of semi-lattices L(Hsubscript d) endowed with the linear topology, where Hsubscript d are finite-dimensional vector spaces. The description is extended to the projective setting. The linear topology is then related to the one induced by the finite level morphism L(Hsubscript d). The chapter also considers the condition that if a definable set in L(Hsubscript d) is an intersection of relatively compact sets, then it is itself relatively compact.

In this paper we shall examine the relationship between the numerical ranges and the spectra for semi-normal operators on uniformly smooth spaces.Let X be a complex Banach space. We denote by X* the dual space of X and by B(X) the space of all bounded linear operators on X. A linear functional F on B(X) is called state if ∥F∥ = F(I) = 1. When x ε X with ∥x∥ = 1, we denoteD(x) = {f ε X*:∥f∥ = f(x) = l}.

Abstract Let $G_1, \ldots , G_k$ be finite-dimensional vector spaces over a prime field $\mathbb {F}_p$ . A multilinear variety of codimension at most $d$ is a subset of $G_1 \times \cdots \times G_k$ defined as the zero set of $d$ forms, each of which is multilinear on some subset of the coordinates. A map $\phi$ defined on a multilinear variety $B$ is multilinear if for each coordinate $c$ and all choices of $x_i \in G_i$ , $i\not =c$ , the restriction map $y \mapsto \phi (x_1, \ldots , x_{c-1}, y, x_{c+1}, \ldots , x_k)$ is linear where defined. In this note, we show that a multilinear map defined on a multilinear variety of codimension at most $d$ coincides on a multilinear variety of codimension $O_{k}(d^{O_{k}(1)})$ with a multilinear map defined on the whole of $G_1\times \cdots \times G_k$ . Additionally, in the case of general finite fields, we deduce similar (but slightly weaker) results.
