What the reader will see below might have benn known long ago, but we did not find it in the literature. Some open (for us) questions are formulated at the end of Sections 7 and 9.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-07-06T09:15:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "46B20", "46E30", "F.2.2" ], "keywords": [ "normed spaces", "orthogonality", "katos strictly singular operators", "fredholm stability", "banach space" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
