On the denseness of minimum attaining operators

Functional Analysis 2016-09-23 v1

Abstract

Let H1,H2H_1,H_2 be complex Hilbert spaces and TT be a densely defined closed linear operator (not necessarily bounded). It is proved that for each ϵ>0\epsilon>0, there exists a bounded operator SS with Sϵ\|S\|\leq \epsilon such that T+ST+S is minimum attaining. Further, if TT is bounded below, then SS can be chosen to be rank one.
