We prove that if X is a Banach space, R, S ∈ B(X), then RS is subscalar (subdecomposable) if and only if SR is.

Abstract. We prove that for every p-hyponormal operator A, 0 < p ≤ 1, there corresponds a hyponormal operatorà such that A andà have "equal spectral structure". We also prove that every p-hyponormal operator A, 0 < p ≤ 1, is subdecomposable. Then some relevant quasisimilarity results are obtained, including that two quasisimilar p-hyponormal operators have equal essential spectra.
Abstract. We analyze the notion of Bishop's property (β) to obtain some new concepts. We describe some conditions in terms of these concepts for an operator to have its essential spectrum (spectrum) contained in the essential spectrum (spectrum) of every operator quasisimilar to it. A subfamily of such operators is proved to be dense in L(H).
Preliminaries and notationsThe concept of quasisimilarity of linear operators was introduced by B. Sz-Nagy and C. Foias [1] in 1967. Quasisimilarity is an equivalent relation weaker than similarity. Similarity preserves the spectrum and essential spectrum of an operator, but this fails to be true for quasisimilarity. Suppose that S q ∼ T . What condition should be imposed on S and T to insure the equality relation σ e (S) = σ e (T ) (σ(S) = σ(T ))? A list of results have been announced along this line. We would like to recall that Yang [2] proved that two quasisimilar M -hyponormal operators have equal essential spectra and M. Putinar [3] proved that two densely similar tuples of operators having Bishop's property (β) ([4]) have equal essential spectra.However, the foregoing works paid more attention to the equality of essential spectra and spectra than the inclusion relations among them, and the methods applied formerly to different families of operators were varied. We are now going to seek some general conditions for a bounded linear operator S ∈ L(H) to have its essential spectrum (spectrum) contained in that of every operator quasisimilar to it. We call such an operator S a (Q) ((P)) operator, denoted as S ∈ (Q) (S ∈ (P )). Of course, if both S and T ∈ (Q) ((P)) and S q ∼ T , then S and T have equal essential spectra (spectra).The results in [2], [3] motivate us to analyze Bishop's property (β). It is well known that the subdecomposability of an operator T is equivalent to having Bishop's property (β) [5]. In section 2, we "localize" the property (β) of an operator S to obtain the concepts A(S), E 1 (S), E 2 (S), C 1 (S), C 2 (S) as defined below and discuss their mutual relations and the relations between them and the spectral structure of S. In section 3, we establish certain sufficient conditions for (Q) ((P), etc.) operators (Theorems 1,2). We then give a number of corollaries and
We prove that if R, S ∈ B(X), R,S are injective, then RS is subscalar if and only if SR is subscalar. As corollaries, it is shown that phyponormal operators (0 < p ≤ 1) and log-hyponormal operators are subscalar; also w-hyponormal operators T with KerT ⊂ KerT * and their generalized Aluthge transformations T (r, 1 − r) (0 < r < 1) are subscalar.
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.
