The spectrum of the restriction to an invariant subspace

Abstract

Let $X$ be a Banach space, $A\in B(X)$ and $M$ be an invariant subspace of $A$. We present an alternative proof that, if the spectrum of the restriction of $A$ to $M$ contains a point that is in any given hole in the spectrum of $A$, then the entire hole is in the spectrum of the restriction.
