Spectral Picture For Rationally Multicyclic Subnormal Operators (1803.05736v1)

Abstract: For a pure bounded rationally cyclic subnormal operator $S$ on a separable complex Hilbert space $\mathcal H,$ J. B. Conway and N. Elias (Analytic bounded point evaluations for spaces of rational functions, J. Functional Analysis, 117:1{24, 1993) showed that $clos(\sigma (S) \setminus \sigma_e (S)) = clos(Int (\sigma (S))).$ This paper examines the property for rationally multicyclic (N-cyclic) subnormal operators. We show: (1) There exists a 2-cyclic irreducible subnormal operator $S$ with $clos(\sigma (S) \setminus \sigma_e (S)) \neq clos(Int (\sigma (S))).$ (2) For a pure rationally $N-$cyclic subnormal operator $S$ on $\mathcal H$ with the minimal normal extension $M$ on $\mathcal K \supset \mathcal H,$ let $\mathcal K_m = clos (span{(M^*)^kx: ~x\in\mathcal H,~0\le k \le m}.$ Suppose $M |{\mathcal K{N-1}}$ is pure, then $clos(\sigma (S) \setminus \sigma_e (S)) = clos(Int (\sigma (S))).$
