Withdrawn due to a likely error with the homeomorphism at line (4). Old abstract: In the monograph 'Limit Operators and their Applications in Operator Theory', the authors define the operator spectrum of a band-dominated operator T and…
This paper presents the Fredholm theory on l^p-spaces for band-dominated operators and important subclasses, such as operators in the Wiener algebra. It particularly closes several gaps in the previously known results for the case p=\infty…
An operator $A$ on an $l^p$-space is called band-dominated if it can be approximated, in the operator norm, by operators with a banded matrix representation. The coset of $A$ in the Calkin algebra determines, for example, the Fredholmness…
In this paper we study the semi-Fredholm property of band-dominated operators $A$ and prove that it already implies the Fredholmness of $A$ in all cases where this is not disqualified by obvious reasons. Moreover, this observation is…
We study band-dominated operators on (subspaces of) $L_p$-spaces over metric measure spaces of bounded geometry satisfying an additional property. We single out core assumptions to obtain, in an abstract setting, definitions of limit…
This paper is a follow-up to a recent article about the essential spectrum of Toeplitz operators acting on the Bergman space over the unit ball. As mentioned in the said article, some of the arguments can be carried over to the case of…
We establish a necessary and sufficient criterion for the Fredholmness of a general locally compact band-dominated operator $A$ on $L^p(R)$ and solve the long-standing problem of computing its Fredholm index in terms of the limit operators…
We extend the limit operator machinery of Rabinovich, Roch, and Silbermann from $\mathbb{Z}^N$ to (bounded geometry, strongly) discrete metric spaces. We do not assume the presence of any group structure or action on our metric spaces.…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated discrete exact group. We consider operators on $l^2(\Gamma)$ which are composed by operators of multiplication by a function in $l^\infty (\Gamma)$ and by the operators of left-shift by elements of…
Let $(\cX, \rho)$ be a discrete metric space. We suppose that the group $\sZ^n$ acts freely on $X$ and that the number of orbits of $X$ with respect to this action is finite. Then we call $X$ a $\sZ^n$-periodic discrete metric space. We…
In this paper we study operators originated from semi-B-Fredholm theory and as a consequence we get some results regarding boundaries and connected hulls of the corresponding spectra. In particular, we prove that a bounded linear operator…
This paper is a continuation of the paper (A.G.Ramm, Amer. Math. Monthly, 108, N 9, (2001), 855-860), where bounded Fredholm operators are studied. The theory of bounded linear Fredholm-type operators is presented in many texts. This paper…
In this paper, we prove that the null space of a weighted composition operator on $\ell_p~ (1 \leq p < \infty)$ is a complemented subspace. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition for a weighted composition operator on $\ell_p$…
By relating notions from quantum harmonic analysis and band-dominated operator theory, we prove that over any locally compact abelian group $G$, the operator algebra $\mathcal C_1$ from quantum harmonic analysis agrees with the intersection…
The Fredholm property of Toeplitz operators on the $p$-Fock spaces $F_\alpha^p$ on $\mathbb{C}^n$ is studied. A general Fredholm criterion for arbitrary operators from the Toeplitz algebra $\mathcal{T}_{p,\alpha}$ on $F_\alpha^p$ in terms…
We extend the relative index theorem on non-compact manifolds to encompass a wide variety of hypoelliptic differential operators of arbitrary order, demonstrating that the change in index when changing a differential operator locally can be…
The theory of limit operators was developed by Rabinovich, Roch and Silbermann to study the Fredholmness of band-dominated operators on $\ell^p(\mathbb{Z}^N)$ for $p \in \{0\} \cup [1,\infty]$, and recently generalised to discrete metric…
We characterize the groupoids for which an operator is Fredholm if, and only if, its principal symbol and all its boundary restrictions are invertible. A groupoid with this property is called {\em Fredholm}. Using results on the Effros-Hahn…
We consider special elliptic operators in functional spaces on manifolds with a boundary which has some singular points. Such an operator can be represented by a sum of operators, and for a Fredholm property of an initial operator one needs…
Let $A$ be a linear bounded operator in a Hilbert space $H$, $N(A)$ and $R(A)$ its null-space and range, and $A^*$ its adjoint. The operator $A$ is called Fredholm iff $dim N(A)= dim N(A^*):=n<\infty$ and $R(A)$ and $R(A^*)$ are closed…
