Remarks on strictly singular operators

operators on L ( L p ) and ` p - strictly singular operators

A classification of weakly compact multiplication operators on L(Lp), 1 < p < ∞, is given. This answers a question raised by Saksman and Tylli in 1992. The classification involves the concept of `p-strictly singular operators, and we also investigate the structure of general `p-strictly singular operators on Lp . The main result is that if an operator T on Lp , 1 < p < 2, is `p-strictly singula...

Domination by Positive Disjointly Strictly Singular Operators

We prove that each positive operator from a Banach lattice E to a Banach lattice F with a disjointly strictly singular majorant is itself disjointly strictly singular provided the norm on F is order continuous. We prove as well that if S : E → E is dominated by a disjointly strictly singular operator, then S2 is disjointly strictly singular.

Compact and strictly singular operators on certain function spaces

Strictly Singular Non-compact Operators on Hereditarily Indecomposable Banach Spaces

An example is given of a strictly singular non-compact operator on a Hereditarily Indecomposable, reflexive, asymptotic `1 Banach space. The construction of this operator relies on the existence of transfinite c0-spreading models in the dual of the space.

Characterizations of strictly singular operators on Banach lattices

New characterizations of strictly singular operators between Banach lattices are given. It is proved that, for Banach lattices X and Y such that X has finite cotype and Y satisfies a lower 2-estimate, an operator T : X → Y is strictly singular if and only if it is disjointly strictly singular and 2-singular. Moreover, if T is regular then the same equivalence holds provided that Y is just order...
