Quasidiagonal weighted shifts

Russel A. Smucker

Vol. 98 (1982), No. 1, 173–182
Abstract

We characterize the quasidiagonality of a two-way weighted shift solely in terms of the weights. We use the characterization to show that quasidiagonality fails to be an invariant for similarity: an operator similar to the (unweighted) bilateral shift may fail to be quasidiagonal.
