| Sumario: | An algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space is said to be strongly compact if its unit ball is relatively compact in the strong operator topology. A bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space is said to be strongly compact if the algebra generated by the operator and the identity is strongly compact. This notion was introduced by Lomonosov as an approach to the invariant subspace problem for essentially normal operators. First of all, some basic properties of strongly compact algebras are established. Next, a characterization of strongly compact normal operators is provided in terms of their spectral representation, and some applications are given. Finally, necessary and sufficient conditions for a weighted shift to be strongly compact are obtained in terms of the sliding products of its weights, and further applications are derived. |
