Questions tagged [compact-operators]
A compact operator is an operator from normed space $X$ to a normed space $Y$, such that image of every bounded subset of $X$ is relatively compact in $Y$. It's used with (functional-analysis) and (operator-theory) tags.

Spectrum of $S_r$ and $S_l$ on $\ell _2 (\mathbb{Z})$
Calculate the spectrum of $S_r$ and $S_l$ on $\ell _2 (\mathbb{Z})$
I want to make sure my solution is correct:
$\sigma _r (S_r)$: we need $S_r (a_n) = \lambda (a_n)$ and so we get for every $n=: a_{...

Compact + absolute convergence of eigenvalues $\Rightarrow$ trace class?
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space. Lidskii’s theorem says that if an operator $T \in B(H)$ is trace class, then $\operatorname{tr}(T) = \sum_i \lambda_i$, where the sum includes all nonzero ...

Is the set of Finite rank Operator closed compared to compact operators set
Let K(X,Y) be the set of compact operators from X to Y. Let F(X,Y) be the set of finite rank operators from X to Y. Is F closed sub space of K?
I proved every finite rank operator is compact. But I'm ...

$T$ compact operator, Let $\Delta^*_{\bar{\lambda}}$ subspace of $X^*$. Prove $\Delta^*_{\bar{\lambda}} = \bar{\Delta^*_{\bar{\lambda}}}$
We have proved the following claim:
Let T be compact operator and $\lambda \neq 0$. Then $\Delta_\lambda = \bar{\Delta _\lambda}$.
Now there is the corollary:
$T$ compact operator, Let $\Delta^*_{\...

Perturbation of semi-Fredholm operators in Frèchet spaces
It is well known that the index is a continuous function on the set of Semi-Fredholm operators on a Banach space, and even on quasi-Banach spaces.
The result is unfortunately false in general Fréchet ...

Compactness of an operator on l^2
I am working on some problems from Kreyzig's Functional Analysis and got stuck on this problem:
Let $T: l^2 \rightarrow l^2$ be defined by $Tx = y = (\eta_j)$ where $x = (\xi_j) $ and $\eta_j = \sum_{...

Is the notion of compactness of operators preserved under quasi-similarity?
Let $H$ be a Hilbert space and $T \in \mathcal L (H).$ Then $T$ is said to be quasi-invertible if it is one-one and has dense range. The operator $T$ is said to be quasi-similar to an operator $S \in \...

$u^*$ comapact implies $u$ compact proof verification
Suppose that $X, Y$ are Banach spaces and suppose that $u \in L(X, Y)$, with $u^*$ compact, where $u^*: Y^* \to X^*$, given by $u^*(\tau) = \tau \circ u$ is the adjoint of $u$. I am asked to prove ...

Proving that operator in $L^2[0,1]$ is compact
I need help with some functional analysis:
Let $A$ be a continuous linear operator on $L^2[0,1]$ and for any $f \in L^2[0,1]$ the function $Af$ is Lipschitz continuous. Show that $A$ is compact.
It is ...

I am trying to show that $K: H_0^1(\Omega) \rightarrow H_0^1(\Omega)$ is a compact operator.
$\textbf{Suppose.}$
$\Omega$: bounded open in $\mathbb{R}^n$,
${W^{1,2}}(\Omega)$: the space of $u:\Omega \to\mathbb{R}$ in $L^2(\Omega)$ with a weak derivative $Du$ in $L^2(\Omega)$, and
${H_0}^1(\...
