This is true for all n = K. Also, we have shown above that such a K
can be found for any given > 0. Hence:
lim ||Tn x T x||` = 0.
(That is, Tn x T x in ` .)
It follows from this that if (Tn ) would be uniformly operator convergent, then the limit must be equal to T ! Hence to prove that (Tn )
is not uniformly operator convergent, it suffices to prove that (Tn ) is
not uniformly operator convergent to T . Now note that Tn T is the
following operator:
(Tn T )((1 , 2 , 3 , )) = (0, 0, , 0, n n+1 , n n+2 , n n+3 , ).
In particular if x = (0, 0, , 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, ) (with the 1 in the nth
position) then
(Tn T )(x) = (0, 0, , 0, 1, 1, 1, ).
Here ||x||`1 = 1 and ||(0, 0, , 0, 1, 1, 1, )||`
||Tn T || = 1. This is true for all n, and hence
limn ||Tn T || = 0. Hence (Tn ) is not uniformly
gent to T , and hence, by our remarks above, (Tn )
operator convergent.
= 1. Hence

But here > 0 is arbitrary, and by taking small we can make the
right hand side arbitrarily small. Hence ||T S ST || = 0, i.e. T S = ST ,

(a) = (b). Assume (a), i.e. that T is self-adjoint. Then T = T
and T is closed (Theorem 10.3-3). Assume v N (T i). Then
v D(T ) = D(T ) and (T i)v = 0, hence (T i)v = 0, hence
T v = iv, and this implies:
ihv, vi = hiv, vi = hT v, vi = hv, T vi = hv, T vi = hv, ivi = ihv, vi.
Hence hv, vi = 0, i.e. v = 0. This prove that N (T i) = {0}.
Similarly one proves N (T + i) = {0}. Hence (b) holds.
(b) = (c). Assume (b), i.e. that T is closed and N (T i) =
N (T + i) = {0}. We first prove R(T + i) = {0}: Let v be an
arbitrary vector in R(T +i) . Then hw, vi = 0 for all w R(T +i), i.e.
h(T + i)x, vi = 0 for all x D(T ). Hence hT x, vi = hix, vi = hx, ivi
for all x D(T ). This implies that v D(T ) and T v = iv, i.e.
(T i)v = 0, i.e. v N (T i). By our assumption (b), this implies
v = 0. Hence we have proved R(T + i) = {0}.
We next prove that R(T + i) is closed in H: Let v1 , v2 , v3 , be an
arbitrary sequence of points in R(T +i) such that v = limn vn exists
in H. We have to prove v R(T + i). By definition there are vectors
w1 , w2 , w3 , D(T ) such that vn = (T + i)wn . Since T is symmetric
we have for every w D(T ):
||(T + i)w||2 = h(T + i)w, (T + i)wi = ||T w||2 + ihw, T wi ihT w, wi + ||iw||2
= ||T w||2 + i hT w, wi hT w, wi + ||w||2 = ||T w||2 + ||w||2.
In particular
||vn vm ||2 = ||(T + i)(wn wm )||2 = ||T (wn wm )||2 + ||wn wm ||2 .
Now (vn ) is a Cauchy sequence, i.e. ||vn vm || 0 as n, m ,
and the above equality shows ||wn wm ||2 5 ||vn vm ||2 ; hence also
||wn wm || 0 as n, m , i.e. (wn ) is a Cauchy sequence. Since H
is complete it follows that w = limn wn H exists. Similarly, the
above equality also shows that u = limn T wn H exists. Since T
is closed (by assumption (b)) it follows that w D(T ) and T w = u,
11
and thus
(T + i)w = u + iw =
lim T wn + lim iwn = lim (T wn + iwn )
