Abstract

Let nNn\in\mathbb{N} and let AA be a closed linear operator (everywhere bounded or unbounded). In this paper, we study (among others) equations of the type AA=AnA^*A=A^n where n2n\geq2 and see when they yield A=AA=A^* (or a weaker class of operators). In case n3n\geq3, we have in fact a new class of operators which could placed right after orthogonal projections and just before normal operators.
