Completeness of rank one perturbations of normal operators with lacunary spectrum
arXiv:1510.02717 · doi:10.4171/JST/190
Abstract
Suppose is a compact normal operator on a Hilbert space with certain lacunarity condition on the spectrum (which means, in particular, that its eigenvalues go to zero exponentially fast), and let be its rank one perturbation. We show that either infinitely many moment equalities hold or the linear span of root vectors of , corresponding to non-zero eigenvalues, is of finite codimension in . In contrast to classical results, we do not assume that the perturbation is weak.
