Nuclearity and Grothendieck-Lidskii formula for quaternionic operators
Abstract
We introduce an appropriate notion of trace in the setting of quaternionic linear operators, arising from the well-known companion matrices. We then use this notion to define the quaternionic Fredholm determinant of trace-class operators in Hilbert spaces, and show that an analog of the classical Grothendieck-Lidskii formula, relating the trace of an operator with its eigenvalues, holds. We then extend these results to the so-called $\frac{2}{3}$-nuclear (Fredholm) operators in the context of quaternionic locally convex spaces. While doing so, we develop some results in the theory of topological tensor products of noncommutative modules, and show that the trace defined ad hoc in terms of companion matrices, arises naturally as part of a canonical trace.
