Banach spaces

A Banach space X is a complete vector space with a norm . : X → R, satisfying: x ≥ 0 x = 0 ⇐ ⇒ x = 0 αx = |α|x x + y ≤ x + y for all x, y ∈ X, α ∈ C. Examples: Cn, with the norm (x1, . . . , xn) = (n

i=1 |xi|2)1/2;

ℓp, 1 ≤ p < ∞, with the norm (x1, x2, . . . ) = (∞

i=1 |xi|p)1/p;

C(K), K a compact space, with the norm x = sup

Bounded linear operators

A linear operator T : X → Y is said to be bounded if there is c ∈ R such that Tx ≤ cx ∀x ∈ X. A linear operator is continuous if and only if it is bounded. The set B(X, Y ) of bounded linear operators T : X → Y is a Banach space, with norm T = sup

x∈X x=0

Tx x . The space B(X) = B(X, X) is an algebra. The dual space of X is X ∗ = B(X, C).

Nests

A nest N is a totally ordered set of closed subspaces of X, such that: {0}, X ∈ N ∧{Ni : i ∈ I} = ∩{Ni : i ∈ I} ∈ N ∨{Ni : i ∈ I} = span{Ni : i ∈ I} ∈ N whenever {Ni : i ∈ I} ⊆ N .

Nests

Example

X = C4, with a basis {e1, e2, e3, e4}. N = {{0}, span{e1}, span{e1, e2}, span{e1, e2, e3}, C4}.

Example

X = C[0, 1]. Ns = {x ∈ C[0, 1] : x(t) = 0 ∀t ∈ [s, 1]} N = {Ns : s ∈ [0, 1]} ∪ {C[0, 1]}.

Nest Algebras

The nest algebra associated with N is T (N ) = {T ∈ B(X) : TN ⊆ N ∀N ∈ N }. T (N ) is a subalgebra of B(X).

Example

X = C4. N = {{0}, span{e1}, span{e1, e2}, span{e1, e2, e3}, C4}. T (N ) is the set of operators represented by upper triangular matrices:     ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ ∗    

Bimodules of nest algebras

Every rank one operator T ∈ B(X) is of the form T = f ⊗ y, with f ∈ X ∗ and y ∈ X. Notation: f ⊗ y denotes the operator x → f (x)y. Define Ny = ∧

  • N ∈ N : y ∈ N
  • ,

ˆ Nf = ∨

  • N ∈ N : f ∈ N⊥

, where N⊥ =

  • g ∈ X ∗ : g(N) = {0}
  • .

Proposition

Let U be a weakly closed T (N )-bimodule and f ⊗ y ∈ U . Then g ⊗ z ∈ U for all g ∈ ˆ N⊥

f , z ∈ Ny.

The largest bimodule in L

Theorem

Let L be a weakly closed Lie T (N )-module. Then the largest T (N )-bimodule contained in L is J (L ) = {T ∈ B(X) : TN ⊆ φ(N) ∀N ∈ N }, where φ : N → N is given by φ(N) = ∨{Ny : ∃f ∈ X ∗, f ⊗ y ∈ C (L ), ˆ Nf < N} and C (L ) = {f ⊗ y ∈ B(X) : g ⊗ z ∈ L ∀g ∈ ˆ N⊥

f , z ∈ Ny}.

Remark: This theorem is valid for any weakly closed subspace L of B(X).
