Abstract:
Linear operators T for which ${T^\ast }T$ and $T{T^\ast }$ commute are studied. Examples are given to show that this class of operators is distinct from several other operator classes. It is proven that if ${T^\ast }T$ and $T{T^\ast }$ commute and T is hyponormal, then T has an invariant subspace. A generalization of this theorem is given.References
