A note on the commutator of two operators on a locally convex space

Comment.Math.Univ.Carolin. 57,2 (2016) 163-168.

Abstract:Denote by $C$ the commutator $AB-BA$ of two bounded operators $A$ and $B$ acting on a locally convex topological vector space. If $AC-CA=0$, we show that $C$ is a quasinilpotent operator and we prove that if $AC-CA$ is a~compact operator, then $C$ is a Riesz operator.

Keywords: locally convex space; commutator; nilpotent operator; compact operator; Riesz operator
