Remarks on n-normal operators

Abstract

Let T be a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space and n,m ? N. Then T is said to be n-normal if T+Tn = TnT+ and (n,m)-normal if T+mTn = TnT+m. In this paper, we study several properties of n-normal, (n,m)-normal operators. In particular, we prove that if T is 2-normal with ?(T) ? (-?(T)) ? {0}, then T is polarloid. Moreover, we study subscalarity of n-normal operators. Also, we prove that if T is (n,m)-normal, then T is decomposable and Weyl?s theorem holds for f (T), where f is an analytic function on ?(T) which is not constant on each of the components of its domain.
