Almost-invariant half-spaces of operators on ω

Abstract

We study the Almost-Invariant Subspace Problem for operators defined on non-normable Fréchet spaces and especially on ω. This problem is stated as follows: "Given a bounded operator T on an infinite-dimensional complex Fréchet space X, can we always find a closed almost-invariant half-space?". In this paper we solve the problem for the space ω by showing that an operator T on ω possesses a closed almost-invariant half-space if and only if T is conjugate to F + R + λId or to B + R + λId where F is the Forward shift and B is the Backward shift and where R is a finite rank operator and λ∈ ℂ. We also investigate the case of operators defined on X ⊕ ω where X is an infinite-dimensional Fréchet space with a continuous norm and we show that in this case, every operator defined on X ⊕ ω possesses a closed almost-invariant half-space.
