An invariant subspace theorem of J. Feldman

Thomas Alastair Gillespie

Vol. 26 (1968), No. 1, 67–72
Abstract

Theorem. Let t be a quasi-nilpotent bounded linear operator on a complex normed space X of dimension greater than one. Suppose further that there is a sequence {pn(t)} of polynomials in t and a nonzero compact operator s on X such that pn(t) s (in norm) as n →∞. Then t has a proper closed invariant subspace.
