Lomonosov's Invariant Subspace Theorem
Lomonosov's invariant subspace theorem is a mathematical theorem from functional analysis concerning the existence of invariant subspaces of a linear operator on some complex Banach space In mathematics, more specifically in functional analysis, a Banach space (pronounced ) is a complete normed vector space. Thus, a Banach space is a vector space with a metric that allows the computation of vector length and distance between vector .... The theorem was proved in 1973 by the Russian–American mathematician Victor Lomonosov. Lomonosov's invariant subspace theorem Notation and terminology Let \mathcal(X):=\mathcal(X,X) be the space of bounded linear operators from some space X to itself. For an operator T\in\mathcal(X) we call a closed subspace M\subset X,\;M\neq \ an invariant subspace if T(M)\subset M, i.e. Tx\in M for every x\in M. Theorem Let X be an infinite dimensional complex Banach space, T\in\mathcal(X) be compact and such that T\neq 0. Further let S\in\mathcal(X) ...

Functional Analysis
Functional analysis is a branch of mathematical analysis, the core of which is formed by the study of vector spaces endowed with some kind of limit-related structure (e.g. Inner product space#Definition, inner product, Norm (mathematics)#Definition, norm, Topological space#Definition, topology, etc.) and the linear transformation, linear functions defined on these spaces and respecting these structures in a suitable sense. The historical roots of functional analysis lie in the study of function space, spaces of functions and the formulation of properties of transformations of functions such as the Fourier transform as transformations defining continuous function, continuous, unitary operator, unitary etc. operators between function spaces. This point of view turned out to be particularly useful for the study of differential equations, differential and integral equations. The usage of the word ''functional (mathematics), functional'' as a noun goes back to the calculus of variati ...

Invariant Subspace
In mathematics, an invariant subspace of a linear mapping ''T'' : ''V'' → ''V '' i.e. from some vector space ''V'' to itself, is a subspace ''W'' of ''V'' that is preserved by ''T''; that is, ''T''(''W'') ⊆ ''W''. General description Consider a linear mapping T :T: W \to W. An invariant subspace W of T has the property that all vectors \mathbf \in W are transformed by T into vectors also contained in W. This can be stated as :\mathbf \in W \implies T(\mathbf) \in W. Trivial examples of invariant subspaces * \mathbb^n: Since T maps every vector in \mathbb^n into \mathbb^n. * \: Since a linear map has to map 0 \mapsto 0. 1-dimensional invariant subspace ''U'' A basis of a 1-dimensional space is simply a non-zero vector \mathbf. Consequently, any vector \mathbf \in U can be represented as \lambda \mathbf where \lambda is a scalar. If we represent T by a matrix A then, for U to be an invariant subspace it must satisfy : \forall \mathbf \in U \; \exists \alpha \in ...

Linear Operator
In mathematics, and more specifically in linear algebra, a linear map (also called a linear mapping, linear transformation, vector space homomorphism, or in some contexts linear function) is a mapping V \to W between two vector spaces that preserves the operations of vector addition and scalar multiplication. The same names and the same definition are also used for the more general case of modules over a ring; see Module homomorphism. If a linear map is a bijection then it is called a . In the case where V = W, a linear map is called a (linear) ''endomorphism''. Sometimes the term refers to this case, but the term "linear operator" can have different meanings for different conventions: for example, it can be used to emphasize that V and W are real vector spaces (not necessarily with V = W), or it can be used to emphasize that V is a function space, which is a common convention in functional analysis. Sometimes the term ''linear function'' has the same meaning as ''linear map' ...

Banach Space
In mathematics, more specifically in functional analysis, a Banach space (pronounced ) is a complete normed vector space. Thus, a Banach space is a vector space with a metric that allows the computation of vector length and distance between vectors and is complete in the sense that a Cauchy sequence of vectors always converges to a well-defined limit that is within the space. Banach spaces are named after the Polish mathematician Stefan Banach, who introduced this concept and studied it systematically in 1920–1922 along with Hans Hahn and Eduard Helly. Maurice René Fréchet was the first to use the term "Banach space" and Banach in turn then coined the term "Fréchet space." Banach spaces originally grew out of the study of function spaces by Hilbert, Fréchet, and Riesz earlier in the century. Banach spaces play a central role in functional analysis. In other areas of analysis, the spaces under study are often Banach spaces. Definition A Banach space is a complete norme ...

Victor Lomonosov
Victor Lomonosov (7 February 1946 – 29 March 2018) was a Russian-American mathematician known for his work in functional analysis. In operator theory, he is best known for his work in 1973 on the invariant subspace problem, which was described by Walter Rudin in his classical book on Functional Analysis as " Lomonosov's spectacular invariant subspace theorem". Lomonosov gives a very short proof, using the Schauder fixed point theorem, that if a bounded linear operator ''T'' on a Banach space In mathematics, more specifically in functional analysis, a Banach space (pronounced ) is a complete normed vector space. Thus, a Banach space is a vector space with a metric that allows the computation of vector length and distance between vector ... commutes with a non-zero compact operator then ''T'' has a non-trivial invariant subspace. Lomonosov has also published on the Bishop–Phelps theorem and Burnside's Theorem. Lomonosov received his master's degree from the Mos ...

Compact Operator
In functional analysis, a branch of mathematics, a compact operator is a linear operator T: X \to Y, where X,Y are normed vector spaces, with the property that T maps bounded subsets of X to relatively compact subsets of Y (subsets with compact closure in Y). Such an operator is necessarily a bounded operator, and so continuous. Some authors require that X,Y are Banach, but the definition can be extended to more general spaces. Any bounded operator ''T'' that has finite rank is a compact operator; indeed, the class of compact operators is a natural generalization of the class of finite-rank operators in an infinite-dimensional setting. When ''Y'' is a Hilbert space, it is true that any compact operator is a limit of finite-rank operators, so that the class of compact operators can be defined alternatively as the closure of the set of finite-rank operators in the norm topology. Whether this was true in general for Banach spaces (the approximation property) was an unsolved quest ...

Operator Theory
In mathematics, operator theory is the study of linear operators on function spaces, beginning with differential operators and integral operators. The operators may be presented abstractly by their characteristics, such as bounded linear operators or closed operators, and consideration may be given to nonlinear operators. The study, which depends heavily on the topology of function spaces, is a branch of functional analysis. If a collection of operators forms an algebra over a field, then it is an operator algebra. The description of operator algebras is part of operator theory. Single operator theory Single operator theory deals with the properties and classification of operators, considered one at a time. For example, the classification of normal operators in terms of their spectra falls into this category. Spectrum of operators The spectral theorem is any of a number of results about linear operators or about matrices. In broad terms the spectral theorem provides cond ...
