For $\alpha$ an ordinal, we investigate the class $\mathscr{SZ}_\alpha$ consisting of all operators whose Szlenk index is an ordinal not exceeding $\omega^\alpha$. Our main result is that $\mathscr{SZ}_\alpha$ is a closed, injective,…

For $\alpha$ an ordinal and $1<p<\infty$, we determine a necessary and sufficient condition for an $\ell_p$-direct sum of operators to have Szlenk index not exceeding $\omega^\alpha$. It follows from our results that the Szlenk index of an…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an operator $A:X\to Y$ on a Banach space having a shrinking FDD to factor through a Banach space $Z$ such that the Szlenk index of $Z$ is equal to the Szlenk index of $A$. We also prove that…

We introduce and study the Bourgain index of an operator between two Banach spaces. In particular, we study the Bourgain $\ell_p$ and $c_0$ indices of an operator. Several estimates for finite and infinite direct sums are established. We…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $K$ an absolutely convex, weak$^\ast$-compact subset of $X^\ast$. We study consequences of $K$ having a large or undefined Szlenk index and subsequently derive a number of related results concerning basic…

For each ordinal $\alpha<\omega_1$, we prove the existence of a space with a basis and Szlenk index $\omega^{\alpha+1}$ which is universal for the class of spaces with Szlenk index not exceeding $\omega^\alpha$. Our proof involves…

We introduce an ordinal index which characterizes weak compactness of operators between Banach spaces. We study when classes consisting of operators having bounded index form a closed ideal, the distinctness of the classes, and the…

For each ordinal $\alpha< \omega_1$, we prove the existence of a separable, reflexive Banach space with a basis and Szlenk index $\omega^{\alpha+1}$ which is universal for the class of separable, reflexive Banach spaces $X$ such that the…

The aim of this series of papers is to study $z$-ideals of semirings. In this article, we introduce some distinguished classes of $z$-ideals of semirings, which include $z$-prime, $z$-semiprime, $z$-irreducible, and $z$-strongly irreducible…

In a previous work, the first named author described the set $\cal P$ of all values of the Szlenk indices of separable Banach spaces. We complete this result by showing that for any integer $n$ and any ordinal $\alpha$ in $\cal P$, there…

We extend a precise renorming result of Godefroy, Kalton, and Lancien regarding asymptotically uniformly smooth norms of separable Banach spaces with Szlenk index $\omega$. For every ordinal $\xi$, we characterize the operators, and…

In this paper, we study the structure of closed algebraic ideals in the algebra of operators acting on a Lorentz sequence space.

In this paper we present a new extension of the theory of well-bounded operators to cover operators with complex spectrum. In previous work a new concept of the class of absolutely continuous functions on a nonempty compact subset $\sigma$…

Let $0<\alpha<1$ and $\frac{1}{q}=1-\alpha$. We first obtain that the function $\omega :\mathbb{Z} \rightarrow (0,\infty)$ belongs to weight class of $\mathcal{A} (1,q)(\mathbb{Z})$ if and only if discrete fractional maximal operator…

For each ordinal $\xi$, we define the notions of $\xi$-asymptotically uniformly smooth and $w^*$-$\xi$-asymptotically uniformly convex operators. When $\xi=0$, these extend the notions of asymptotically uniformly smooth and…

It is shown that if $\alpha ,\zeta $ are ordinals such that $1\leq \zeta <\alpha <\zeta \omega ,$ then there is an operator from $C(\omega ^{\omega ^\alpha })$ onto itself such that if $Y$ is a subspace of $C(\omega ^{\omega ^\alpha })$…

We consider the Schrodinger operator a given domain. Our goal is to study some optimization problems where an optimal (non-negative) potential V has to be determined in some suitable admissible classes and for some suitable optimization…

We study singular Schr\"odinger operators on a finite interval as selfadjoint extensions of a symmetric operator. We give sufficient conditions for the symmetric operator to be in the $n$-entire class, which was defined in our previous…

A learning approach for determining which operator from a class of nonlocal operators is optimal for the regularization of an inverse problem is investigated. The considered class of nonlocal operators is motivated by the use of squared…

We investigate truncated Toeplitz operators belonging to the Schatten ideals. We completely characterize such operators when they have an analytic symbol or belong to the ideal of Hilbert-Schmidt operators. We also study model spaces…
