On Semifredholm Operators and the Calkin Algebra
Department of Mathematics, University of Helsinki Hallituskatu 15, SF-00100 Helsinki 10, Finland
We study the algebraic properties of the canonical images
(
+(E)) and
(
(E)) of semiFredholm operators in the Calkin algebra C(E). The properties depend strongly on the underlying Banach space E; particular attention is paid to the case when E is an Lp-space.
