The set of all bounded linear operators $T$ on $\\mathcal{X}$ satisfying $TK\\supset K$ is denoted by $G(K)$. Our starting point is the study of the closure $WG(K)$ of $G(K)$ in the weak operator topology. We prove that $WG(K)$ contains the algebra of all operators leaving $\\overline{\\lin(K)}$ invariant. More precise results are obtained in terms of the Kolmogorov $n$-widths of the compact $K$. The obtained results are used in the study of operator ranges and operator equations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-02-19T23:12:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47A05", "41A46", "47A30", "47A62" ], "keywords": [ "weak operator topology", "operator equations", "operator ranges", "kolmogorov widths", "absolutely convex infinite-dimensional compact" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0902.3483O" } } }
