Natural families in evolution algebras

In this paper we introduce the notion of evolution rank and give a decomposition of an evolution algebra into its annihilator plus extending evolution subspaces having evolution rank one. This decomposition can be used to prove that in non-degenerate evolution algebras, any family of natural and orthogonal vectors can be extended to a natural basis. Central results are the characterization of those families of orthogonal linearly independent vectors which can be extended to a natural basis. We also consider ideals in perfect evolution algebras and prove that they coincide with the basic ideals. Nilpotent elements of order three can be localized (in a perfect evolution algebra over a field in which every element is a square) by merely looking at the structure matrix: any vanishing principal minor provides one. Conversely, if a perfect evolution algebra over an arbitrary field has a nilpotent element of order three, then its structure matrix has a vanishing principal minor. We finish by considering the adjoint evolution algebra and relating its properties to the corresponding in the initial evolution algebra.

More elementary operators that are spectrally bounded

We discuss some necessary and some sufficient conditions for an elementary operator $x\mapsto\sum_{i=1}^n a_ixb_i$ on a Banach algebra $A$ to be spectrally bounded. In the case of length three, we obtain a complete characterisation when $A$ acts irreducibly on a Banach space of dimension greater than three.

Locally quasi-nilpotent elementary operators

Let $A$ be a unital dense algebra of linear mappings on a complex vector space $X$. Let $ϕ=\sum_{i=1}^n M_{a_i,b_i}$ be a locally quasi-nilpotent elementary operator of length $n$ on $A$. We show that, if $\{a_1,\ldots,a_n\}$ is locally linearly independent, then the local dimension of $V(ϕ)=\spa\{b_ia_j: 1 \leq i,j \leq n\}$ is at most $\frac{n(n-1)}{2}$. If $\lDim V(ϕ)=\frac{n(n-1)}{2} $, then there exists a representation of $ϕ$ as $ϕ=\sum_{i=1}^n M_{u_i,v_i}$ with $v_iu_j=0$ for $i\geq j$. Moreover, we give a complete characterization of locally quasi-nilpotent elementary operators of length 3.

On the invertibility of elementary operators

Let $\mathscr{X}$ be a complex Banach space and $\mathcal{L}(\mathscr{X})$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on $\mathscr{X}$. For a given elementary operator $Φ$ of length $2$ on $\mathcal{L}(\mathscr{X})$, we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution of the equation ${\rm X} Φ=0$ in the algebra of all elementary operators on $\mathcal{L}(\mathscr{X})$. Our approach allows us to characterize some invertible elementary operators of length $2$ whose inverses are elementary operators.
