In this paper we present sufficient conditions for reflexivity of any powers of the multiplication operator acting on Banach spaces of formal Laurent series.
By an elementary proof, we use a result of Conway and Dudziak to show that if A is a hyponormal operator with spectral radius r(A) such that its spectrum is the closed disc {z:|z| ≤ r(A)} then A is reflexive. ...By an elementary proof, we use a result of Conway and Dudziak to show that if A is a hyponormal operator with spectral radius r(A) such that its spectrum is the closed disc {z:|z| ≤ r(A)} then A is reflexive. Using this result, we give a simple proof of a result of Bercovici, Foias, and Pearcy on reflexivity of shift operators. Also, it is shown that every power of an invertible bilateral weighted shift is reflexive.展开更多

In this statement, we are the same (equality) and yet nobody is ever the same as anybody else (plurality). This may sound contradictory yet what it means is that there is a common base which makes us all the same, and precisely because of this base, we are able to make comparisons and hence differentiate one from the other because we are all different. When analyzing two concepts, an equal status in at least one normatively relevant respect is needed. Where there is one, there is the other precisely because of the other and vice versa. The fact that it is only at least one respect that is needed implies the existence of other aspects that act as common distinguishing factors. Therefore, distinction implies equality. The paper will explore how according to Arendt, equality, a political concept, has been perverted into a social concept. In her view, previously, differing circumstances and conditions served as "protection" and actually had a protective role. An explanation will thus be given as to how a lack of these differences in the modem period has resulted in a challenge and how this challenge has created unexpected problems for the human condition. This implies reflexivity between political theory and the human agent, and will be presented from Arendt's perspective.展开更多

文摘By an elementary proof, we use a result of Conway and Dudziak to show that if A is a hyponormal operator with spectral radius r(A) such that its spectrum is the closed disc {z:|z| ≤ r(A)} then A is reflexive. Using this result, we give a simple proof of a result of Bercovici, Foias, and Pearcy on reflexivity of shift operators. Also, it is shown that every power of an invertible bilateral weighted shift is reflexive.
