Abstract.A linear mapping T from a subspace E of a Banach algebra into another Banach algebra is defined to be spectrally bounded if there is a constant M ≥ 0 such that r(T x) ≤ M r(x) for all x ∈ E, where r(·) denotes the spectral radius. We study some basic properties of this class of operators, which are sometimes analogous to, sometimes very different from, those of bounded operators between Banach spaces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
